Additional Music. Classic country and bluesy guitar explorations as part of Dominik’s team. Huge vistas of endless hot Australian sand was just what was needed in deep lockdown early 2021. 1957 Gibson J50 – just the ticket.
Savage noisemaking slam up against heart tugging emo orchestrations for Ruth Barrett on this new branch of L&O. Total thrill. Additional music, programming and orchestration.
Orchestrating for Ruth is always a thrill and this time – our third outing together – I was also on Prophet 6 and various other vibey sonics duties. Much less spooky than her last project The Sister, but just as much tension in the score. The action also revolves around a family drama and there […]
The Sister was my second project orchestrating for one of today’s great musical forces in TV and film: Ruth Barrett. A spooky thriller, part murder mystery, part ghost story, Ruth’s music conjured a world of tension, suspicion, fear and uneasiness. Alongside the chilling string voicings, I provided a few synth parts, with a big thank […]
Working with Scuta and Tom at Soviet Science, GoDaddy went our way with this bongo bass fest. Keeping it simple is so often the way in the world of ad music; this is a prime example.
Being part of the orchestration team on this score from Daniel Pemberton was an honour. The movie looks and sounds like nothing else, indeed just the way that Dan created the score with heavies such as Tim Lefebvre (bass) and Abe Rounds (drums) this was always going to stand out and break your speakers. Andrew Skeet […]
DLMDD apply scientific method to the world of sonic branding, and they develop comprehensive musical guidelines for their clients. It’s then up to composers to translate this into original music and sound. Babbel went nuts for our piece which simplified their musical brief down to a double bass audio signature of a perfect fifth. Deliverables […]
My first, and I suspect not my last project orchestrating for Ruth Barrett, as we got on spectacularly. An inspiration for anyone who wants to find out what real time pressure is like on a project! The strings, guitars and harp were recorded between Ruth’s studio and Gorbal’s Glasgow. Ruth’s music on Sanditon is killer, […]
Working with the absolute legends at DLMDD and the new breed of top London session cats, I created a New Orleans second line ver of Bill Withers’ Lovely Day. It went absolutely everywhere and got a great reaction. John Blease (https://johnblease.com) was around, and we recorded drums and some extra horns at his place in […]
This tune’s causing a stir at the moment on the latest Range Rover ad. I collaborated with lyrical god Tommy Antonio on the song which we wrote especially for the spot. Emma Smith sounds incredible on it (as usual!). Hopefully the full length ver will appear soonish. It was great to collaborate again with Emma […]
