Free Improv

A spontaneous improvisation from May 2014.

Mixed and mastered by Paul Stewart. 

DMT - Free Improvisation

Yet another spontaneous duet improvisation.

Tribal Improv

A collective project starting from my keyboard (Scotland), to Alexander's electronics and mixing (England), to Ed Afraux on classical guitar (France) and Vasco Morais on percussion, bass and saxophone (Portugal).

Bathsheba Swing

More random/spontaneous improvisation, this time on, for me, an alien instrument.

Avant - Garde Rhodes#2

A huge thank you to Wilhelm Matthies for both his fine string music and artwork. 

The fender rhodes acted as the seed for this collaboration, laying the platform for Wilhelm to put his music on top of the keys.

Wilhelm performs on his instrument, the "Bass Mosesa". The instrument is Wilhelm's own design and construction. 

I am truly honored to be performing alongside such a beautiful sounding instrument and such a wonderful performer.

Thanks again, Wilhelm! :)
