this certainly lives up to the whole series so far...which is a major compliment...Absolute Aces...Kudos...faved reposted downloaded

Nice. Like the underlying ominous tone (and subtley mixed sounds to convey this). Quality work Dave =]

Lovely mysterious opening and captures the finding of the book very well indeed...

Cracking track and great piece of work in the fine fascinating series of Archie in the war. I have noticed how each part you seem to be putting out in no particular order David but it's all good stuff my good freind and make a very enjoyable listen to see how you express what this chap went through, and very well done mate...

Uneasy, yet calming.  Great stuff.  Im enjoying the whole Requiem.

In memory of Private 74333 - Henry Archibald Smith

Not much is known of Archie's early life, expect that he worked as a foreman bottler at the Hopcraft and Norris Brewery in Brackley.

Requiem For Archie Movement 11 : The Prayer Book

This is the penultimate piece (well in order of composition) in the Archie series. For such a short track it went through several changed as I was never happy with it.....I guess a true labour of love!

Piano Explorations [45]

I started creating music on my old PC back in 2002 using DAWs such as Buzz, Fl Studio and Reason. As my artist name suggest I mostly compose tunes that have an ambient edge. My main passion is creating soundscapes, be they soft drifting drones/piano pieces/heavily synth driven, weirdly abstract and classical and orchestral pieces. I mainly compose using apps on my IPad but also make use of whatever instruments I have lying around such as my Pocket Operators, Modal Craftsynth, my favourite is an Early Learning Centre keyboard.

In the past my tracks have been played in BBC Radio Oxford and BBC 6 Music. Over the years I have collaborated with people from all over the world. Please message me if you would like to collaborate 😀
