3 years of uni has come to an end, with me producing a large-scale concept album. Using the story of Ragnarok - the end of the world from Norse mythology, I took 5 key sections and attempted to depict them in sound. My aim was to join classical orchestration with electronica and ambience, creating a hybrid that represents the huge themes within the story. The album will be available to buy on Bandcamp - link will follow shortly.

The Great Winter

Work in progress. Such a beautiful track, so I thought I'd ruin it with some big synths. 

The Curse (Agnes Obel Remix) WIP

Initial idea for a remake of Peter Pan. The piece is supposed to suggest an old Wendy remembering her time with Peter.

Neverland (WIP)

I thought I'd write something in a completely different style for a change. Woke up with a nice melody in my head, popped it on the piano and then the orchestration came quite naturally. Finishing it is another matter!

DARK VENGEANCE

NEVERLAND

MALHAM

Part of a new track I'm working on with an unknown ancient culture kinda vibe. Not quite Egyptian, not quite Aztec. Somewhere in between.

Forbidden Knowledge

Nazarene

UNMASTERED, UNMIXED - Sort of a remix of the theme from Last of the Mohicans. Just experimenting with different styles and instruments. Still in this electronic phase :P
