A soundtrack and score I composed and recorded for a film by Gaby Sahhar entitled, ‘Truth and Kinship’. It was featured in the 2020 Russian Bienale, and was screened as part of the BFI London Film Festival 2020.

I experimented and explored lots of new sounds and synths for this soundtrack - Think Hans Zimmer's Blade Runner evolving into Timpani and Trombone driven Orchestral Dance, Techno, and Trance music.

I proudly present my original composition and soundscape for the Milan Design Week 2025 ASUS and Dezeen’s 'Design You Can Feel' Showcase featuring an interactive Kinetic and AI powered installation by Studio Ini. 

I was asked to write a piece that would embody the flowing and pulsating movement of the 'wings' of the sculpture as they moved in the space with the dancers and visitors, and to create sounds that were inspired by the metallic texture of the panes that made up the panelling.

On show 8th - 13th April at Galleria Meravigli, Via Gaetano Negri 6, Milan.

Organic Pete & The Herbs - Untitled Number 1 (Headphones Recommended)

This is my Soundscape that I was lucky enough to be asked to compose for a London Fashion Week show at the ICA in London, for the designer, Roberts | Wood.

• https://www.roberts-wood.com/ • https://www.instagram.com/roberts.wood/ •

For this project, I was given the opportunity to experiment with sound in new ways that I haven’t done before, by incorporating speech from interviews between various artistes and designers, to create a flowing internal dialogue of thoughts and ideas, about empowerment, oppression, character, individuality, and femininity. And how all these things impact and influence the creative process.

I hope you enjoy it, and it takes you somewhere nice.
Thanks for listening, 
Milo

I'm very proud to present to you my latest work. A composition, inspired by Soho, the people within it, living and working, the hustle and bustle, and the rich culture and community that make it the unique place it is.

(Special thanks to Sylvia Young and the Children of Soho Parish School for making this possible, and anyone I interviewed for allowing me to use your voices.)

This is my soundtrack I composed for Elms Lesters Painting Rooms film of Adam Neate's portraits from 2006-2013. 

When writing this piece, I wanted to make something that would take you on a dimensional journey though the exhibition, but also used the colours and materials Adam used to influence the sounds you hear. For example in the Red Portrait at the end of the film, I worked to make a bed of distorted, jarring sounds to capture the anxiety and madness the deep red and sharp lines project. 

If you aren't familiar with Adam's paintings, the film is a stunning peak into an awe-inspiring career and mammoth body of work.

...have a boogie.

This is the extended mix of a tune called 'Disco - Hold Me Touch Me Feel Free' - a commissioned composition, composed in collaboration with my friend @OwenPratt 

• www.instagram.com/rosiebhastings • www.instagram.com/hannah_quinlan_ •

Commissioned as part of Hannah Quinlan & Rosie Hastings 2019 project - Hope, Joy, Youth, Peace, Rest, Life, Dust, Ashes, Waste, Want, Ruin, Despair, Madness, Death, Cunning, Folly, Words, Wigs, Rags, Sheepskin, Plunder, Precedent, Jargon, Gammon, and Spinach.

ABOUT THE PROJECT -

In 2019 myself and Owen Pratt were asked to create a musical score, soundtracking together genres that have shaped and moulded the queer and gay scenes through the years - such as Disco, Club, House, High NRG, Techno and Pop. The artists (Hannah Quinlan & Rosie Hastings) screened a video work, accompanied by our live performance of the original score. First, as part of ARTNIGHT2019 held in Walthamstow Town Square on 22/06/19, and then recommissioned for a second to performance at Image Behaviour at the ICA 2019 at ICA London on 14/11/19.
The shows featured live vocals from Jesse Hultberg (founding member of 1980’s New York based group 3 Teens Kill 4), dancer Ted Rogers and musician & drummer Severin Black.

The commission was both a celebration and a critique of contemporary Pride culture, exploring the tension between queer subcultures and the gay mainstream.
