A slow building emotionally driven minimalist instrumental piece, originally written with hybrid electronic parts, now stripped back to the piano and orchestra. Feel it?

An alternative mix of a hybrid original, replacing sound design parts with orchestral parts.

Two years ago my Won Love piano solo album hit number 2 in the iTunes UK Instrumental charts, beaten by a Richard Clayderman compilation. The sequel is in the works...

Dark and moody music fresh out the studio, this is MORTAL, an opener for a short film.

Cue for a short film.

Deryn Cullen Cellist. Such a huge asset on every project I throw her way. Here playing several cello parts for an 82/92 Productions advert I'm doing the music for.

[Tip for fellow composers, if I may be so bold: Please hire live players wherever possible. Between Deryn and violinist Jessica Diamond Official, and some live piano from me, the music in this project has so much more life and lovability. My choice to spend most of the music budget on live players has consistently been a good one, where each one has led to bigger things. Write, play, love.]

PRS statement (broadcast royalties) finally arrived and I find a lot of it coming from Japan, but high on the list outside of that is my track INTENSE from The Library Of The Human Soul with multiple uses on I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here Australia. Quite chuffed with that! 😄

The Library Of The Human Soul released their 19th album today, MYTHOLOGY. To confuse matters, this track of mine on the album is also called MYTHOLOGY.

The strings performed by the Vienna Session Orchestra have all the punch and grit I wanted in this rhythmic minute of music. I love their performance and am always excited to receive my tracks back from them.

Proud to present a new ad for a US audience which I recently scored. Deryn Cullen Cellist does a cracking job on the cello part. My huge gratitude to 82/92 Productions for the gig.

Forty minutes of movie music to write and produce in one month sounds a bit less if you think of it as 20x 2-minute tracks. But it's still a lot, if standards are to be maintained 😁 one down last night, 19 to go, I do love this work so much, as long as it doesn't kill me.

Special moment captured by a friend earlier this evening. He's 2 and a half with a magnetic attraction to the noise.

FINESSE is the 20th track I've written for The Library Of The Human Soul, this one is on the CONFIDENCE album. I just love how the Vienna Session Orchestra's string quartet performed this, so much better than what was in my head!

Red Room One Studio has a beautiful new addition thanks to 'an undisclosed insider'. The actual microphone used by Meghan Trainor in the Lips Are Movin music video!

It's a special edition red Marshall MXL CR77, of course just used as a prop in the video, but an excellent super-cardioid mic in its own right, and spent a day in the hands of the lovely Meghan herself.

I've hired two studio interns, effective immediately. So far twin brothers Ross and Elf are doing a great job.

I've scored another pizza ad! This video was produced by my long time client and friends at Visual Kings | Media for Austrian nation-wide franchise Pizza Mann.

There's more in the pipeline, a series of these fun little promos coming up over next few months. Love gigs like this!

Some really kind words here, I'm truly touched. When this is finished in a few weeks, it will be one of my proudest achievements as a composer. Thanks as always to Zefora for accompanying me on this journey, her beautiful voice has graced many of the cues in this.

When we first began making The Garden, the single thing I was probably the most nervous about was the music. Music has always been hugely important to me, and I knew that the movie could fail without the proper score. Thankfully we are fortunate enough to have a composer that relieves me of that nervousness every day, when he sends me new cues. I couldn't thank Oliver enough for his continued hard work and dedication to this project. I can't wait for everyone to hear it accompanied with the film!

A true highlight of my 2015 work, something I'm gushingly proud of, this is the piano version (which I don't think I've ever shared before) of BLIZZARD QUEST.

Mostly live performances: string parts performed by Royal Liverpool Philharmonic players at Parr St studios, piano performed by me in my own studio, voice parts performed by an incredible tenor/soprano pair at Parr St.

It's available for licensing via Gothic Storm Music and you can get your own personal listening copy here on iTunes too: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/epic-winter-wonderland-piano/id1057432093

Euphoric Christmas magic & winter fantasy. This 'Piano Edition' of album 35 takes the same tracks, places piano at the front and calms the percussion for a Russian-tinged magical interpetation.

Proud to announce that a film I scored is out now on Vimeo On Demand.

"The Legacy of Rubies" won best animation at the African Movie Academy Awards plus a bunch of other festival wins. It's a beautiful short film which tells a life story set in a remote forest village in Africa.

Finally, the 2015 African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) winning The Legacy of Rubies is available for online.
Thanks everyone for your support. You are awesome!

Cool recent music placement.

Honoured to be featured on “Meet The Artist” today.

It’s a written interview covering my background, my inspiration and current activities.

There's a bit in there about special challenges, and a bit about what I consider to be important for any aspiring musicmaker, and about my influences.

Happy New Year, friends!

Who or what inspired you to take up composing, and pursue a career in music? A career in music is something I’ve always aspired to, since poking out simple original tunes on the piano as a ch...
