Opus One - early jazz compositions (2007)
[Download all]
This blend of space jazz, rock and drum 'n bass puts everything
I've been loving since college together in one wild package. It started
with tracking Jimmy Gilbertson, the drummer from Terrene, and me on
bass. Then I chopped up the beats, added keyboards, and recorded Ryan
Leyva on guitar and Zach Price on congas. Inspired by FCS
North, 78 Nova, and Squarepusher,
this would have been my dream band if I hadn't left Seattle.

Terrene (2004-2005) - Songs written by John Mulhausen: [Download the album]
I played bass on this record. My favorite is Mermaid. Sparkly indie
rock is how John describes it - I say it is epic weather, layers upon
layers of shimmering guitar effects and thin, high, yearning vocals.
John Mulhausen is a genius! Sorry I had to leave this band when I
moved to NYC. Phil Ek produced the
record.
Vent Studios (2002-2005)

Mackrosoft (since birth) :
I met Paul and Alex Cheever in Boy Scouts. When high school ended, they
built a studio in their parents' basement, and thus began a decade-long
saga of dirty funk. I've played sax on
their recordings as often as possible. Here I present my favorite excerpts (all saxophone
unless noted):
Nova Animations (2003)
Movies, movies, movies! By high school kids from Nova! Taught by my
friend Stefan Gruber.
San Diego Sessions (2000-2002)
The start of what later became Vent Studios, these were all made in my bedroom in San Diego on Park
Blvd during my years at MusicMatch.
- Bezerk
- I was living with a drum 'n bass promoter, and this is an experiment
in crushed glass.
- SubSub
- Too fast to be drum n bass really, but my favorite of the bunch.
- Dub
Gumbo (1997-1999)
A mix of styles from my days at Stanford, 1997-1999, playing around
in the studio.
- DreamDance
- The only string quintet I ever wrote, composed to accompany a
modern dance performance! An out-of-tune performance in places,
and poor recording by me, but I was still proud of the composition.

- Funk
Flow - Super funky collaboration between Alex Cheever and me.
I'm all over the keys, he chopped it up.
- Live
At Starbucks 1 - My junior year summer, 1998, I played sax with
a tabla player at the Starbucks on top of Queen Anne hill in Seattle.
I was really in to Ravi Shankar and Indian music at the time, and
this is all improvised.
- Live
At Starbucks 2
- Smash
- One of the few bop tunes for jazz combo I wrote in high school
that got recorded. Please forgive the church reverb. Click

- Zen
Suite - This was actually recorded in high school, mixed in
college. It was inspired by my Zen studies in my senior year, combined
with all the late Coltrane I was listening to at the time.
