Project Highlights
Your music is just perfect, which is all the more impressive given how many boxes it needs to tick and how peculiar our film is… I've been constantly impressed with the tracks provided.
Nice to meet you
Composer, multi-instrumentalist, music tech geek
Working from my studio in Gloucestershire, I've been writing original music for TV and film for a while now (my first BBC drama aired in 2003).
My work has since featured in a huge variety of TV and Film including true crime, game shows, international documentaries and kids' TV, plus the BAFTA-nominated short film Bachelor, 38.
I love keeping up with the latest music technology developments, but nothing breathes life and emotion into music like a human moving air with a real musical instrument.

Music and sound services
As a UK TV composer I love working directly with TV and film producers, writing original music to picture and helping to bring story to life. I also write production library music for use across TV and film, and it's always exciting to see where the tracks end up.
I'm often doing odd music and sound jobs out side of composing. From arrangements, music editing, podcast editing, and anything else that is sound related and techy, come and have a chat about how I can help.
Production and library music
Tracks written for production music libraries and licensed for documentaries, true crime, game shows and Children's TV.
Music editing
Editing existing or library music to picture, so it fits like a bespoke score. I'll often use 1 - 2 second specially composed bridging sections so you'll never hear the edits.
Podcast and radio production
From an audio tidy-up to a full edit, with intros, underscore, stings and sound.
Arrangements and backing tracks
Full backing tracks for theatre and singers, and bespoke arrangements for accompanists and ensembles.
Studio and music / Music-tech advice
Help with a studio build or upgrade, especially software and virtual instrument setups for TV and film composers. I've also recommend student instruments that balance value with playability.
