Portfolio For those who want to see the breadth and depth
of my work, from my original days recording with cassette 4-tracks,
to today's latest digital technology, here are some samples of past
work. Warning: Some of this is rather rough (technically and artistically),
but many find these interesting. For the more "main stream"
material, check out my individual
album pages.

It's May Day! ©
1995 Dendler Music; Arrangement by J. dePrisco (2000) This song was recorded for Town & Country Day School
for their May Day presentation. It gave me a chance to work
with MIDI and digital audio together, using the sync capabilities
of Cakewalk and the Roland VS-1680.
Children of Light (©
2000 Music & Lyrics J.dePrisco)
This song demonstrates the full capability of my project studio.
This is a rough mix recorded using MIDI sequencing between Cakewalk
and the Roland 1680. Composition tools included Jammer, Acid
Music, Cakewalk and soundfonts. Non-computer tracks include
voice, distorted electric guitar, clean electric guitar, and
acoustic guitar. The storyline for this song evolved spontaneously
during the recording process, and is still under development.
It draws from my interest in science fiction, combined with
my interest in Buddhism. Kind of like Dr. Who Dharma....
The Sound Will Save You (Real
Audio 56kps) (© 2001 J. dePrisco & S. Sanjana)
This song is an international collaboration with India vocalist
Sandhya Sanjana. This song is part of her Tarana Project series
of internet collaborations. After recording the groove and chord
structure with Acid Pro, I used Cakewalk to add several MIDI
tracks. Then I sent a loop to Sandhya for her to add vocal ideas.
After receiving her vocals, I put together this draft. The current
version has lyrics which I added recently. Not sure what I think
of them yet.
