What's up everybody, my latest track is inspired by John Powell's scores for the Bourne movies and for the work Trent Reznor did on Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. It blends electronic and orchestral elements together and combines them into something pretty dark. Enjoy -

Under The Floorboards

Hey everyone, this is a cinematic orchestral piece inspired by the movie Gladiator and Hans Zimmer's classic soundtrack. If you like the music in that movie then hopefully you'll enjoy this one.

Into The Arena

What's up everyone. This track was inspired by the 'Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' soundtrack by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. It's kind of an industrial track with orchestral elements. Enjoy!

Speed Freak

Hi everyone, thanks for listening! 'Sands of Arrakis' is inspired by the Dune universe, created by Frank Herbert, and by Hans Zimmer's great soundtrack for the film. 

Arrakis is the strange desert world where most of the action in Dune takes place. This piece represents what Arrakis sounds like to me. It's got a combination of organic and electronic elements. Hope you enjoy it.

Sands Of Arrakis

Hey everyone, this is my new track 'Battle's Eve'. It's an epic cinematic track with a fantastic vocal performance from Daniele D'Andrassi. I hope you enjoy it!

Battle's Eve

What's up everyone, this is my new track 'Wheel of Time'. It's inspired by the Wheel of Time books - a high fantasy novel series by Robert Jordan. The world of the stories cycles through Ages, which can last thousands of years. Certain individuals can draw on the One Power, a dangerous magical force that can bring extraordinary abilities. Hope you enjoy it!

Wheel Of Time

Hey everyone, this is my orchestral piece Rumpelstiltskin, based on the children's fairytale. it's a musical evocation of the character of Rumpelstiltskin; he's mischievous, impish, and cartoonishly grotesque. He's also supernatural and there's something uncanny about him. I wrote this piece to try and express those qualities, almost like a character study, but in music. Thanks for listening!

Rumpelstiltskin

Phrygian Lines

Hi everyone, this is a short piece I composed in honour of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings series. The piece describes a pair of unwary travellers who venture into Shelob's caves, unaware of what awaits them inside...

The first half of the composition tries to evoke the sinister atmosphere of the caves, and the second half describes the pair being chased through the tunnels. Do the travellers escape Shelob's clutches, nor not...? That's for you to decide! 

Thanks so much for listening!

Into Shelob's Lair

Hi, thanks for listening! This composition was made using mostly the Metropolis Ark 3 sample library from Orchestral Tools. The idea was to write an action-themed track in an octatonic scale, with no repeating sections, and using only a single sample library as much as possible. (There are a small number of elements from different libraries, but around 80-90% comes from MA3).

Thor's Hammer

Flight from the Fairy Garden

Hey everyone, this is my entry for the 2025 12 Story composing contest. Enjoy!
