Trance remix of a comedy track from wayyyyyy back in the day! Still makes me grin (because it's so daft!).

You're Such A Good DJ - Trance Mix (2001)

Another sample heavy track from way back. This was one of the nicer arrangements from around that time, so I thought I'd share it!

Look At The Sky (2003)

Another fun, faux 80's action/horror film soundtrack type thing. Imagine the horror of being in Orpington! Play this in your car or on your iPod to make your escape back to civilization that much more exciting! ;)

Escape From Orpington (2008)

This started out with the intention of being quite a chilled, minimal electronic track, but as usual, organically grew into something longer and quite different! 

Repose (2009)

This track is made with the intention of being the opening track to my latest album "It Used To Be Better". Although to much fiddling has left other candidate tracks for the album sound quite different to this!

A Prelude... (2011)

Potentially the title track for the new album if I ever find the time! The idea here is to keep things musically simple, with a Massive Attack style bass and Board of Canada style retrograded synth leading the way. Mix was a bit of a nightmare for this, so I think the bass may still be on the heavy side... Proper monitors would help here!

It Used To Be Better (2012)

A track that I done a few years ago, that's finally been fleshed out to try and make it more interesting. It's still probably too long for it's own good, but, there you go! The delay bass from my Virus TI caused so many issues with the recording of this track, which is why the final mix isn't as tight as is should be, it was too much hassle to do a take!

Lurker (2009)

Remix of Patrick Jack's original song, Asylum. (http://soundcloud.com/patrickjack) From his album "Stuck in Wonderland". See the music video for the edited version @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z3VPkt4c0U.

The first thing I wanted to do with this remix was to up the tempo, but this lead to many problems as the vocal tracks just wouldn't warp nicely to fit. Also we were unable to get in the studio to do a rerecording of the vocal track, which means it was stuck with a rough Autotune against it, with a bit too much warble for my liking.

Asylum - Jussen Remix (2009)

By far one of the longest tracks I have ever done. This came about in a very organic fashion, playing with presets and then naturally progressing from one section to the next. I was going to split it into two parts, but eventually felt that the first few minutes are too important to cut, as they make the contrast between the two, very different, halves of the track more pronounced.

Listening back to it, the track has a certain melancholy to it which I feel reflects my frame of mind at the time or writing, feeling very introspective and somewhat downbeat. 

A Certain Amount of Introspection (2011)

Yet another sad/melancholic chillout track. The aim here was to try and write something around a more interesting chord progression and bassline combo. It still doesn't sound like something Massive Attack would have done, which is a little bit of a shame, but there's always next time! :)

The bassline might be a bit on the heavy side on your setup, once again, that's the problem with living in a flat and not being able to have proper monitors!

The title is inspired by a "Death Clock" a friend got for Xmas some years back. Without using it, we should all probably think a bit more about making the most of the time we have...

Tick Tock Death Clock (2012)

Writing and fiddling with tunes for fun since 1998. Initially producing rave/dance music, I've now grown up and mellowed out somewhat, focussing mainly on electronic chillout and film soundtrack work. I don't pay any attention to the current trends and therefore don't plan to start making dubstep any time soon... Sorry guys!
