this is so good! more pretty pretty please!

Superb synth wrangling and a class track, excellent stuff!

Cool track, as you say this is definitely reminiscent of a certain era of spooky children's TV. Builds nicely, much enjoyed.

I love this...feels like something ancient buried deep inside

The soundtrack to a long-forgotten kids' TV drama serial, probably a John Wyndham or Alan Garner adaptation. It was most likely set in a rural village, into some parts of which the local kids were forbidden to go. Please feel free to make up the rest of the story as you see fit.

In From The Fields

Track inspired by a visit to Wayland's Smithy - a Neolithic long barrow and chamber tomb site located near the Uffington White Horse and Uffington Castle, at Ashbury in the English county of Oxfordshire. Legend has it that if you leave your horse there overnight, it will be reshod by unseen forces by morning time...
I could hear the ghosts of the dead there!

Wayland's Smithy

An extract from a performance inside the soon-to-be-demolished East Tower, part of the BBC's original Television Centre complex. This recording was made entirely from the naturally-occurring sounds of the tower, particularly the resonant frequencies of the empty rooms and  gutted offices. Thanks to Television Centre and Something More Near.

A demo track I put together for a movie score I'm working on. I may come back and add some real flat new romantic vocals to the verse parts, but I always say that kind of thing and I never do it.

I also always say that retro electronic/synthwave/whatever is boring and I'm going to stop making songs like that, but it just comes so naturally.

Rethinking our new EP... here's a track in unfinished form - a couple of overdubs are still required. It was written and recorded fairly spontaneously within a couple of hours.

"See, I warned you not to go and play on your modular synth straight after reading all those Alan Garner books. Now look what's happened."
