These are commissioned pieces for the Llamados Holiday Camp (https://llamedosholidaycamp.com)who asked me to create a jingle and other theme music for their on-line fan event for Terry Pratchett's Discworld books,

This track is a piano solo improvisation around the well-know tune "She'll Be Coming Round the Mountain" which formed the basis for the in-joke Dai Dai Druid tracks of the event.

Capturing the feelings I had a walk in the woods during a lovely snowy day.

Winter Walks

I grew up listening to the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy and its theme music. This is my homage to the classic Eagle's track and to my favourite radio sci-fi drama. It was written using only Spitfire Audio LABS instruments as a creative challenge.

Journey Of The Sourceress

I wanted to write a piece of music that was always driving forward to evoke the feeling of someone returning home after an epic journey.

Towards Glory

The initial melody and bass line for this are from 2006 as I found a very old sequencer file on my PC! It was originally written for some form of synth lead and bass but after listening to it, I decided to re-work it for violin and recorder (as you do).

Come Dance

This was an assignment for the Thinkspace Education Taster Week. The brief was to write 2 mins of sampled mock up as a pitch for a corporate film which would depict hackers attaching a multinational company "the hackers are portrayed as cool, and the company is weak… until they bring in their own team of hackers to do virtual battle. The companies hackers eventually win the cyber war". This piece was written in about 6 hours.
