Hitman

This is my third release (25.11.2016) as a solo artist. It's available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, etc. The song is heavily inspired by Johnny Cash and is about the film 'There Will Be Blood'. Huge thanks to Mark Tyas (for playing bass), Sam Hopper (for perfect beats - as per usual!). Biggest thanks of all to Al Heslop who recorded, mixed, and produced the song at Creative Control Studio, Bracknell.

Oil!

This was a small composition project for one of my music theory classes.  The title describes the elements of the piece: four – quartal harmonies; seven – 7/4 time; eight – octatonic scales for the melody.  I did not expect it to come out quite so jazzy while I was writing it, but I like the result.  Vibraphone and piano.

Harmonic Language

Four Seven Eight

This brief orchestral composition was inspired by the classic poem The Raven.  I sketched it out a decade ago and it sat in my folder of unfinished work for ages, until I orchestrated it just recently.  This was really quick work: I orchestrated it in just two hours.

Night's Plutonian Shore

Grain Scanner - Snails Parade

I wrote this lighthearted piano piece many years ago, before I had much in the way of a music education.  The slight jazzy influences are very representative of my style at the time.
