Music I made on Mixcraft to reflect a chilled out mood, something to play in the background while cooking supper or working at other stuff. I put the Didgeridoo in for something different. The painting is mine- of a Nguni.

TREE

Some African inspired kalimba's mixed with classical orchestral strings and a smooth flowing rhythm suggest sunrise over a great river, welcoming a new time of peace and harmony.

A New African Dawn

I loved the movie, Gone with the wind as a child. The music was written by Max Steiner. Thank you Max, for the inspiration and a great tune which has inspired me pretty much my whole life.

Memories of gone with the wind

I couldnt think of a title. I wanted a mellow, lazy feeling with a full-bodied sound, puntuated by flutes (birdsong) and with the promise of rain in the tinkling harp and ice rain synth sounds. Yes, it is all synthesised sound except the piano, but that is all I have to work with - Cubase and mixcraft- alas, not real musicians.

Where is the rain

The Beatles - In My Life (cover)

Another Happy Day, by Sam Levinson (featuring Ellen Barkin, Ellen Burstyn, Demi Moore...) is premiering at Sundance Festival this weekend! This is a little sample of the music I did for the film. This song is from what is in my opinion one of the strongest moments in the film.

Gotta pack my boots and hat now. I hear it's cold out there in Utah...
