Throughout Scripture and history, God has used music as a means of stirrig us up for action. It led the way into battle, calmed evil spirits, and continues to often be the natural response of someone rejoicing in God's victory and power. Music sticks in our memories better than mere words and enables us to meditate on the thoughts and ideas that were expressed. Music is a gift from God.
I have been a musician for several years now and have written over 20 songs. Few of them have been recorded, but as I finish new songs worth sharing, I will continue to post them on this site for free.
All music downloads are free, and you have permission to copy and distribute them provided you give appropriate credit and do so for free. Feel free to download as much as you like—these songs are meant to help you draw nearer to God—not for me to make an extra buck.
Download Instructions:
To download an Mp3, right-click the "Music (mp3)" link and select "Save Target As," then save the file to your desired location.

"Garden"(9 min, 7 sec) |
This instrumetal was specifically recorded for times of prayer. I played the song spontaneously and added layers of other instruments and sound effects without any musical preparation, which lends to the flowing nature of the music. The world uses this type of music for relaxation, but I use it for times of prayer and worship. Enjoy!

Music by Bobby Guskovict
A good friend of mine, Bobby Guskovict, is a songwriter and musician as well. He has given me permission to make his projects available on this site.
Bloodwork
This set of songs was written to be a Heavy Metal "Rock Opera" that tells a story from start to finish—leading people to truth in Jesus Christ. Feel free to download them, burn CDs, and share the message (provided authorship credit is maintained and you do so for free).
Since these songs tell a complete story, I highly recommend buring them to CD and listening to them in order. Bloodwork is more than a compilation of music—it's an experience.
In Bobby's words:
Bloodwork is a concept CD for metalheads like me. You don't have to love heavy music to like this, but it probably helps.
Three of us worked over two years to see this through. Dearl Poore helped with writing, played the drums and did some backing vocals (way backing). Matt Wilson made sure the story line was comprehensible and even fought for some songs that I thought needed to go. Matt is also responsible for the incredible cover art on our CD. And I'm Art's friend, Bobby Guskovict. I did the writing as well as the instruments (besides drums) and the vocals.
If listening online, you may have to wait a minute after pushing "PLAY" for the song to buffer. If you're still having trouble, hit "STOP" and then "PLAY" again. As I already stated, the best method is to right-click the link to the right—"Music (mp3)"—and save the songs to your hard drive.
Enjoy!

"Lost"(1 min, 2 sec) |
TRACK 1 - This instrumental intro to "Bloodwork" features Bobby Guskovict playing the familiar song "Amazing Grace" on electric guitar to set the stage for the entire work. As Bobby says, "This melody should be familiar to everyone. I'm using this as a setup to hopefully let everyone know that this CD has something to do with God." |
Music (mp3) |
"Wretch"(3 min, 17 sec) |
TRACK 2 - "This song is a proclamation of where we all are without Christ. As a sinner, I knew I was a sinner. I also knew I wanted my guilt released. This song revisits that idea for me." |
Music (mp3) |
"Shine"(3 min, 30 sec) |
TRACK 3 - "Will I shine? Will I allow myself to be covered with Jesus' righteousness? This is a decision for all of us to make." |
Music (mp3) |
"Warning"(5 min, 8 sec) |
TRACK 4 - "When our eyes are open to the truth, we have to tell people. We all have friends that need to know. This song is me talking to a close friend, warning him." |
Music (mp3) |
"Burn"(3 min, 40 sec) |
TRACK 5 - "As a metalhead for most of my life, we see all these strong, cool images of satan and demons. We tend to think that the worse we are, the better the devil will treat us in Hell. This song speaks to that. It really points to the eternal suffering that lost souls will face. And don't bother kissin' up to satan, he'll be in the same boat." |
Music (mp3) |
"Convict"(3 min, 51 sec) |
TRACK 6 - "I thought this would be a good place for a slow instrumental. The intention is to give the listener a place to think about what was said so far." |
Music (mp3) |
"Wages"(5 min, 43 sec) |
TRACK 7 - "The wages of sin is death. This song looks at sin through God's eyes. I want to show sin as death rather than fun. It was hard to sing this one. I didn't like realizing the wrath that I deserved. Thank you, Lord, for Your grace." |
Music (mp3) |
"Danger"(4 min, 47 sec) |
TRACK 8 - "This is my challenge to listeners to think about their own decisions. Don't die without Jesus." |
Music (mp3) |
"Difference"(5 min, 45 sec) |
TRACK 9 - "Words and ideas can get lost in loud heavy music, and I wanted there to be no question as to what I'm singing about. This song is obviously different from the rest, but I think it comes across loud and clear." |
Music (mp3) |
"Turn"(3 min, 49 sec) |
TRACK 10 - "I want this song to serve as a light post to the worst of the sinners. Sin is sin, and Christ paid for it ALL. Whatever your situation is, God is calling you to the throne of grace." |
Music (mp3) |
"Rising"(5 min, 42 sec) |
TRACK 11 - "This is a picture of desperation turning to hope." |
Music (mp3) |
"Found"(6 min, 16 sec) |
TRACK 12 - "I once was lost but now I'm found. This song celebrates regeneration in Jesus Christ." |
