Yesterday we lost one of our family of composers. Although Mo Foster had not composed for us in a while, he was a force of nature on his bass when he did.
He told us stories of his exploits, which went on to become his autobiography, 'Seventeen Watts'. That year, 1998, he insisted we buy 100 copies and gift them to clients! Jenny duly trekked around the edit suites, weighed down with the hardback copies - signed copies nonetheless!

Mo, your music will live on across the globe. RIP.

This album is ethereal, wanderlust, adventure, space, electric guitars, strings & delay. An album that hits that wonderful combination of ambient, yet melodic.

📷 compliments the feeling of the album perfectly with this complex, colourful, but soft, art.

This album is STUNNING.

In an industry where there are solo piano albums aplenty, we wanted to release something just as beautiful, but more dynamic with piano duets.

🎨 We think the artwork compliments the sound of the album perfectly. We are passionate about using artists for our artwork, and supporting local talent where we can. This one is by Hertfordshire based painter

A collaboration of immense talent, JW2316 Afro Beats was written by , & .

They’ve been session musicians for big names like Quincy Jones, Bonobo, All Saints, to name a few, and last year, they co-wrote original music for Channel 4, as part of their Back To Black campaign.

We are super honoured to have this album in our repertoire!

🎵 JW2316 - Fela Funk

12/04/2022

Ahh, this one is very exciting!

JW2316 Afro Beats is a mixed album that celebrates traditional jazz and funk Afrobeat, and more modern afro beats.

Much like the cover art, the album begins with the very colourful sound of Afrobeat originating in the 1960’s with bold baritone and alto sax melodies, and later moves into more contemporary, laid-back R&B/Afro beat fusion.

Recognising the creative women we work with today on International Women’s Day.

In an industry traditionally lacking in female talent, we want to ensure diversity and equality by encouraging and working with women of all ages and backgrounds.

We could not end this post without giving a shout out to all the phenomenal female composers who write for our catalogue, the female artists who have created album covers, the female editors who have used our music.

Thank you to each and every one of you. We love working with you! Not because you are female, but because you are BADASS!

🎵 JW2313 - Modern Lullaby 🎵

Exciting, blossoming, spring, fantasy, new beginnings, nature, whimsical, magical.

We could go on. But we need not. Just listen, and start your Friday bright & happy [yes, we’re aware today’s weather in the UK does not reflect this!]

JW2313 Splendour is a beautiful collection of orchestral fantasy tracks; filmic in feel, warm in tone.

A collection of pizzicato, staccato, and l, sweeping strings, with gorgeous woodwind and percussion accompaniment. Bringing magic, beauty, and occasionally a little mischief into an edit.

Written & composed by , a talented duo well versed in composing for children’s TV [Go Jetters, Blue Peter, to name a few] and a plethora of other writing credits, we couldn’t think of a better pair to create this album for us.

🔈 Can Can - JW2307 Broken Toy Orchestra 🔈

The beauty of this album is it is zany, it’s bizarre, and it’s certainly not pristine. In fact, some might find it a little annoying.
But, it’s perfect for all things comedy and children’s TV, and as this video suggests, seems to work with that User Generated edit!

We’ve all heard the Bridal Chorus a billion times. You know the one that pretty much every soap, reality show, every format in between uses for someone walking down the aisle. But have you ever heard that track performed on a kazoo? Didn’t think so.

JW2307 Broken Toy Orchestra. The title is a bit of a give away. This fun, and playful, album features quirky arrangements of well-known classical, Christmas tunes and national anthems.

🔈 Wrapper’s Delight - JW2306 December 🔈

Eek, the festive period is edging ever closer. We reckon it’s going to be extra special as Christmas was a no-go for loads of families last year.

Let’s celebrate in style with some non-traditional Christmas tracks that will bring any edit to life, and help spread the warmth and excitement that encompasses the festive period.

🔈 Rooftops - JW2306 December 🔈

If you’re after something that is festive in feel, but Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree’s a bit full on, look no further than JW2306 December.

Christmas isn’t all about the mad rush, and this album is the perfect soundtrack to highlight those tender, more reflective moments that happen around the festive period.

IT’S CHRISSSTTTMASSSS!!

No, we know it’s isn’t. We haven’t even had Halloween yet! But seeing as the Christmas music requests have been strolling through the [virtual] door, we thought what better timing to introduce, JW2306 December.

Moving away from traditional carols, December is Christmas-but-cool. Mellow garage rock with sleigh bells, the occasional little ditty Christmas track, and some really sweet acoustic numbers.

One final appreciation post for JW2305.

When you commission an album that you know has heaps loads of potential, that’s great. But when you commission an album that you know has potential, but is so multi-faceted, you have no real idea where that potential is going to land, and THAT is EXCITING.

It’s filmic in feel, that’s for sure. But this one feels like an album that has no bounds!

🔈 Street Lights - JW2305 The Art Of Time & Space 🔈

Warm, fingerpicked acoustic melodies perfect for journeys of discovery, travel into new, and exciting territories, and awe- inspiring moments.

We loved that sent us some pictures and videos during the recording process of JW2304 Where Happiness Grows.

We acknowledge it has been a very strange, challenging year for musicians, but, Chashe’s sparkle still shines through in these pics. ✨

We have been so eager for the completion of our latest album, JW2304 Where Happiness Grows. Mostly because it is written and produced by

What.A.Talent

We know everyone describes their music as eclectic, but this album… Romance in the 21st century, explored through contemporary r&b/pop/EDM/jazz. Complete with beautiful, soulful female vocals.

Big thanks to the team Upright Music ApS who did the music supervision on this TV & online commercial for Atlas in Poland, using our track 'Pray' from JW2259 Empower.

We love this album, it's had some fab placements in it's time. Here's another wonderful spot to add to the list! ✔️

Odpowiedzialni, silni, niezawodni. Stoi za nimi wiedza i doświadczenie.Wielokrotnie dokonują rzeczy z pozoru niemożliwych. W jaki sposób? Są Fachowcami. Zoba...

JW2303 A Swallow’s Song is a perfect soundtrack for life’s current trajectory - the flowers are blossoming, there is a sense of hope in the air, and it feels as though it could be the start of new beginnings for many.
