After a producing hiatus of ten years, The Condition Of The Now, is the first completed track since the birth of The Guilty Spark alias.

The Condition Of The Now (WIP)

The Guilty Spark is the music alias of Andrew Oakes, a filmmaker and designer, and one half of Intercept Studios, a multi-platform media company based in South Wales and London.

Taking inspiration from films, television, music, art, and life, The Guilty Spark produces electronic music in a variety of styles, ranging from downtempo to drum and bass. Making music for the mind, as well as the feet.

Andrew originally composed electronic music from the late 90's to 2006, mostly as a hobby and a source of relaxation. But it was something that was never truly pushed for, professionally. After taking a break for nearly ten years, in early 2016, through the advice of his girlfriend, Andrew
decided to continue with music production under The Guilty Spark alias, whilst planning to release a double album, The Lost Files, a collection of his earlier work.

Being a huge fan of the Halo franchise, Andrew has named both his music alias, The Guilty Spark, and his label, ARK, from characters and locations within the fictional universe.
