A musical adventure allying the use of Jazz, Funk, Classical, Black/Death Metal, Rock, Fusion, World, Video Game, Ambient and Electronic Music to sonically describe settings, character personalities, and events to an original science fiction comic book epic. The music is reflectively dynamic and complex, sad and glad, frightening and courageous. “The Deserts of Traun is story telling through the medium of modern music.”

 
>> This site will be developed over the next year, during which the production on Traun 1 and Traun 2 will be underway. The hope is to have 'Version 3' (part 1,2, AND 3 (re-worked)) produced within the next 2 years. Currently I am building my studio, working on proficiency with a handful of instruments and thoroughly composing the parts.. Paul, Colby, myself and the other performer/writers are looking forward to a fully fledged release of the trilogy. if there is news to report it will be here and at the traun myspace page. <<
