Thank you for visiting kcwmmusic.com, home of the my DMCA-free rock music and musings.
I am involved in three musical projects:
KCWM features guitar-based, ’90s-influenced instrumental rock. My intent is to provide streamers and content creators with music to use without having to worry about copyright strikes or DMCA notices.
You can find all of my DMCA-free rock music on Spotify, YouTube, and other music streaming sites, outside of whatever cost for that service might be.
While you can find the music for purchase on iTunes and other sites, I encourage listening for free as much as possible. I am content with knowing it’s being used.
Cold the Winter is my “band” with a catalog of about 35 songs with lyrics and vocals already written. Most of these songs are waiting to be fleshed out with drums, bass, and additional guitars. All songs are written by me except where specifically credited.
Members include KCWM, JD, and Matt, the latter two of which sang vocals on five out of the six songs on the 2019 EP entitled Skylines and the Horizon, which can be found on Soundcloud and Bandcamp.
CTW is currently on hiatus as I have shifted focus to writing music for KCWM.
Low-Fi, Nice Try features music written by my long-time friends and musical collaborators, the Laird Brothers, JD and Matt.
My involvement in LFNT came when the brothers asked me to write some parts for their songs in addition to helping them record their music.
The Waiting Drove Us Mad EP was our first real attempt at recording either of our music and we learned quite a bit along the way. I feel like the writing process involved in that EP helped me develop out of a writing rut.
We recently put together a dedicated recording PC, so we hope to release new LFNT music in the next year.
In a world of noise, be sound.
