Welcome to Music by tk !
I hope you find MUSIC to make your day more enjoyable and meaningful!
Currently my music is for FREE* so just go to the Free Music at the above tab and the drop down style-specific section (stream hi-lo speed). To get MORE NEW FREE music or other music not posted here, JOIN my email list! (to the right). The player ("tkRadio") at the top plays a variety of the styles of music I have written, performed and produced. Have a listen and enjoy!
Especially listen to "I Have This Dream" above, a song I am pledging to the Heal The World Foundation established by Michael Jackson. The song was written and produced for a lyric contest authorized and co-written by Michael Jackson, and this is the lyric and song production I submitted.
As an Artist I am presently Jazz based and am working on a new Brazilian Jazz album to be released about mid 2012. It is an extension of my String Theory Jazz album whose first song you can immediately hear by clicking the song player above.
As a Producer I cover rock, pop, jazz, blues, alternative, folk, electronic, hip hop, country, reggae, and what may come my way. The Free Music above tab will let you hear and download songs from my library.
As a Solo Performer I am currently available as a singer-songwriter (some covers too) and instrumentally
As an artist and producer I want to build a musical experience with you that you freely choose, perhaps because it is FREE, but also to provide some historical background for the different kinds of music you may hear from me in the future.
Cheers, tk
*You are free to listen to and download music by tk as I have written and produced it and/or have the rights to give it to you to use in any fashion you like (make a You Tube!) as long as you mention me in the credits (www.musicbytk.com), and you do not use it for profit (without my permission/$).
As an artist I want to be HEARD, so that is why this music is FREE. As a songwriter-producer I do not like to put limits on what styles I am willing to explore, so that's why my music is multi-styled. I love writing and producing music and though I have worked most of my life in a career unrelated to music, songwriting and producing music has been a constant in my life since the age of 10.
Because I am currently unemployed I am currently able to spend more time getting reacquainted with my roots in music and in building this web site (under chronic construction). I also now have the opportunity to let you hear what I have enjoyed producing over the years. To me, its amazing the internet allows us to connect globally as it did not exist when I was growing up; I think this a special time in history. This also means I am able to write and share more music across the continents. My solo Brazilian Jazz styled album, Archipelago In Paradise, currently in the songwriting phase and early production, will have a chance to tingle some ears in Brazil, once I can get this on the net, however I look forward to performing these songs out locally in the USA, as well (unless I get a job first!).
Peace, tk
