New Showreel for 2016

I’ve finally got round to creating a new showreel for myself! It’s been quite difficult to find the time to do this and as the way with these things there’s always a project on the horizon that you feel you’d want to include before uploading. There’s one or two other projects that I’m currently involved… Continue reading New Showreel for 2016

Brass Hip Hop Library Music – Making of…

I recently completed a full library music album comprising of 15 tracks of Brass Hip Hop music. The markets for these tracks were promos, adverts, sports montages and action sequences so the music had to be energetic, loud and lively so that it jumps out of the speakers.   We were very keen to feature a large amount of live musicians on this album… Continue reading Brass Hip Hop Library Music – Making of…

Social Networking

Admittedly it’s only the 14th December, but I’m going to put into place one of my new years resolutions early… And that is to be a bit more active on social media especially Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Feel free to follow me on the following channels Facebook, Twitter and Instagram [instagram-feed]

On “Panorama” Documentary

Once again it’s great see some of my music being used on prime time television. This time it has been on the BBC Panorama documentary. You can find the link for the show here http://bbc.in/1GsMGXP (it occurs around 3:50) or see the video below. You can hear the music in it’s entirety here

Composing Ambient Soundscapes

I’ve recently been commissioned to create an album of relaxing ambient soundscapes. As you would expect it’s been one of the most relaxing jobs I’ve ever done (I was thinking of investing in a reclining chair but thought I might be going too far). Throughout the process I’ve been keen to shy away from the… Continue reading Composing Ambient Soundscapes

Most recently I’ve worked for the English Cricket Board and the fashion brand Woodhouse.     Get the Game On – English Cricket Board Woodhouse – Dapper Stag Collection The client required music that fully represented… Continue reading New Bespoke Online Commissions

New Production Music Album

The brief for the album was to create 16 tracks of Indie/Folk music loosely influenced by the likes of Nick Mulvey, Ben Howard, Hozier and Ed Sherran. I’ve been composing production music for around 2 years now for various libraries, but this is the first instance where I’ve had an album all to myself. It’s been… Continue reading New Production Music Album

Studio Pictures

I’ve just got my hands on a few pictures of the studio space I work from. As a composer I’m very keen to get as much soul and energy through live performance where possible. I believe that no matter how much money is spent on samples/virtual instruments (of which I have many incidentally if budgets are tight!) nothing… Continue reading Studio Pictures

Composing for Drama – Tongue Tided

I recently worked on a short film with the immensely talented John Grey (who I’ve actually been working with on a music video too). The film Tongue-Tied tells the story of a man with a crippling speech impediment and the loneliness that comes along with it. By spying on the text messages of others, he is able to take… Continue reading Composing for Drama – Tongue Tided
