Major Leagues (Pavement)

A cover of John Vanderslice's 'Promising Actress" from his 2004 record "Cellar Door". Arrangement is a vague approximation of the arrangement he used when performing the track with the Magik*Magik Orchestra circa 2009. 

The song is about the David Lynch movie Mulholland Drive.

Using recordings from 2017, and sample libraries from Spitfire Audio as well as their free Labs range, I whipped up a new version in Logic Pro X of this Cardigans track I love.

Using the Spitfire Audio BBC Symphony Orchestra (for a tuba, trombone, a2 trumpets and cello leader), and some amazing Kontakt libraries from the Pianobook community (Soft drums by Jon Meyer; Mum's Accordion by Phil Hartley), I remixed an old track I had from 2017. It's a cover of a Bill Ricchini song from his 2002 record 'Ordinary Time'. I didn't really come up for air during this one.

Think Of Me As A Place (Bill Ricchini)

Using the Spitfire Audio BBC Symphony Orchestra (for cello leader) and the brilliant Pianobook samples Soft Drums (Jon Meyer) and the English Classic (Tim Digiunaitis), I have remixed a track I recorded in 2017, the song '500 Miles' from the soundtrack to the 2013 movie 'Inside Llewyn Davis' starring Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan.

This is a cover of a country and western song by Tom T. Hall that I recorded in 2017 but have remixed in 2020 using libraries from Spitfire Audio (BBCSO; Moonglades) and set of brush drums from the community at Pianobook, namely Jon Meyer.

That's How I Got To Memphis (Tom T. Hall)

Challenging myself and stretching my legs a bit with the BBC Symphony Orchestra Pro library from Spitfire Audio, I decided to see if I could record a cover version of one of my favourite songs by The Divine Comedy, 'Our Mutual Friend' from the album 'Absent Friends'. Everything you hear is either the BBC Symphony Orchestra, my voice or the Steinway Grand from Pianobook (sampled by Jon Meyer). This was completed in around 50+ hours, probably because my workflow is pretty amateur.
