Pop, pop. They go down. She hadn't even broken a sweat. As her hands unclench and the tension releases, like a wave, her mind is still and awash with all that her quarry is; their very soul and its every secret open for Ioun to read. Ioun is pleased. The monk has done her duty and will keep this knowledge in the annals of all time. She is: Beauregard Lionett.
This piece was inspired by the titular character in the #DnD show: @Critical Role, played #live on #twitch by Marisha Ray. She is accompanied by the esteemed cast: Matthew Mercer, Laura Bailey, Travis Willigham, Taliesin Jaffe, Liam O'brien, Sam Riegel, & Ashley Johnson — telling fantastic stories in the world of Exandria, presently in the #Wildemount setting.

As the ship sank, the cold dark engulfed him, and his lungs burned whilst he sank deeper toward his watery grave. Then the voice, horrible and alien, whispered: "consume." Reborn with new purpose and power, he set out with his profane blade to enact his master's will — whose yellow eye gazed ever from the deep with unknowable intent. He is the man with many faces, the keeper of fathoms, the 'J' is silent. He is Fjord.

Sometimes, the Dungeon Master has to give their players a bit of reprieve. But sometimes, the players are a little too smart for their own good. So the computer bards are summoned, and lull the unsuspecting (or suspecting) player with their sweet sweet tunes — make them lose their guard, and focus not on the perils ahead, but that beautiful sunrise on the horizon instead...

To kick things off: our heroes often experience loss of a kind on their adventures. A friend (long may he reign), possessions, themselves. So this arrangement was written just for that — for when the #feels train hits especially hard, and you, oh cruel #GM sit back and chuckle as you loop it over, and over, again. All in the name of good storytelling. 😈

**A little about the piece** "She may be a woman of the cloth, but that doesn't stop this gnome from donning a full suit of plate armor. Charging into battle, swinging her morning star with deadly force, her ferocity is matched only by her faith, and love for her friends, whom she will take a blade (or several) for to protect them. She is: Pike."

Sean Feica and I present to you, the remastered version of my orchestral piece, "Vox Machina". The first in a series of reproduction/remasters to be done.
**A little about the piece** They're a motley crew of heroes, that have seen a thing or two. They've battled things from the deepest recesses of their world, to beings from beyond. They are: "Vox Machina."
Being 'veterans,' I tried to encompass this by way of the slow strings in the beginning, which gives way to a more 'folk hero' mood with the bagpipes, before finally settling on the typical 'epic' cinematic style. I definitely pictured Vox Machina jumping into battle a la Avengers style, and I hope you did too while listening to it. ******

Yet despite his cold, calculating exterior, he harbors an intense love for all he holds dear, especially his friends, and twin sister Vex. He is: Vax'Ildan.

QRFYF1600010Aiden Chan - Sonata for Whitestone Castle (Percys Theme) - [Classical]Aiden Chan2016-10-17 | A witty one-liner is the last thing anyone (or thing) crossing this gunslinger's path will hear, before falling into the Raven Queen's cold embrace. Cool, and collected, he is the level-head in the rowdiness his friends get themselves into, yet at times he can't help but to have a little fun himself. He is: Percival Fredrickstein Von Musel Klossowski de Rolo III, but you can call him Percy.

QRFYF1600008Aiden Chan - Vox Machina - [Cinematic]Aiden Chan2016-09-07 | They're a motley crew of heroes, that have seen a thing or two. They've battled things from the deepest recesses of their world, to beings from beyond. They are: "Vox Machina."
Being 'veterans,' I tried to encompass this by way of the slow strings in the beginning, which gives way to a more 'folk hero' mood with the bagpipes, before finally settling on the typical 'epic' cinematic style. I definitely pictured Vox Machina jumping into battle a la Avengers style, and I hope you did too while listening to it.
This piece is probably, thus far, the work most directly inspired by #GeekandSundry's #CriticalRole, being composed as a theme for the titular party. Please share the video, and perhaps it will reach them, and make it into their show!

This is the flagship video for the new direction I'm taking this channel towards! Enjoy!
I was commissioned the first 2 minutes of "All That Jazz" by Gwyneth Brinkley, for her film "The Adventures of Clock Man" (coming soon). However I decided to extend the excerpt to a full 4+ minute song just for y'all!
It's an EDM play on Electroswing, but ultimately settling on some heavier (I guess almost Trance-like) sounds, albeit true Jazz elements were not neglected (hopefully :p).
Watch out for the release of "The Adventures of Clock Man" by Gwyneth Brinkley, starring Matt Michaud, Brittany Palmer, Conor Bell, and Brooke Shilling.

Cheers!Aiden Chan - A Generation of Heroes - [Cinematic] (Original Composition)Aiden Chan2014-03-12 | Here's a new one for y'all!
This piece is based on a comic-book universe my friends and I created back in High School - we called it "Generation of Heroes." In the series, we tackled the "growing up" process of heroes and villains alike, and wanted to provide readers a more mature take on the often neglected "teenage" superhero.
I've used a mix of Brahmsian, and Wagnerian techniques to compose this piece - using thick textures, leitmotifs, and a mix of functional and non-functional tonality. I tried to capture the heroic, "epic," essence we so commonly associate with film and game music, and aimed to create a recognizable tune with which we could associate with. Also...kudos for the oboe solo? ;)

All rights reserved. QRFYF1300003Aiden Chan Sophomore Elective RecitalAiden Chan2014-03-05 | Hi, y'all!
Here's the recording of the live steam of my Sophomore Elective Recital at Ithaca College! It features "Adagio" in J.S. Bach's G minor Sonata, Bloch's "Baal Shem Suite", "The Butterfly Lovers' Violin Concerto" by He Zhanhao and Chen Gang, and Paganini's 13th Caprice.
I was performing with Marci Rose and Junwen Liang.
Here's a jazz number called "On the Rocks," that I cooked up for a new restaurant in Shanghai named "爐火正紅" (which means "hot out of the oven") by Rex Lau.
Here, I try to capture the essence of classic combo jazz, and soft big band swing, laced with modern production elements and aesthetics.
I hope y'all enjoy it! :D

Starting a new project: original music, which will be uploaded here as well! This one's called "Ink," and is an oriental themed symphonic work, named so as it was written and produced for a visual educational resource aimed at teaching dyslexic children Chinese.
In the piece I attempt to capture a scene from the typical kung fu romance, where a new trainee trains, under the watchful eye of his master, day in and day out, on the top of a mountain. They are surrounded by beautiful scenery, and during the occasional breaks, take some time to take it all in while reflecting on themselves (trying to gain inner peace).
I hope y'all enjoy it! :D
