Recording of the Pipe Organ at the Holy Name Church on Oxford Road in Manchester. This was recorded using a number of atmospheric microphones over 2 nights.

Pipe Organ at The Holy Name, Manchester

This ensemble included violin, viola, cello, double bass, spanish guitar, accordian and castanets.

Tango Ensemble

Simple piano and vocal recording. This was achieved with some microphones in an X&Y setup inside the piano combined with a large diaphragm condenser for the vocals and some more condensers to pick up the acoustic sound in the room.

Piano and Vocals

EP recording for Mancunian Funk-Rock band Occam's Razor. Varied use of guitar tones and vocal textures (barbershop-style backing vocals, gang vocals etc).

Bug & Leaf are a Manchester based Ambient Bass music duo consisting of Tom Leah and Rick Hartley. This session was recorded for a session All FM's 'Breakfast of Champions' and was recorded with far too many DI boxes to be healthy to normal humans.

Bug & Leaf

EP for Manchester based rock band Alarms. My brief was to create an expansive yet lo-fi sounding dance and grunge influenced record. The techniques used were influenced by Steve Albini. This is what I ended up with.

All instruments were recorded in one take with no overdubs in a 'As Live' situation to give the most natural feel to the performance.
