Buchla
My latest EP is now available on all streaming services and on my Bandcamp page.
This EP came out of my first plays with the Tiptop Audio/Buchla modules for eurorack. It was recorded over a two day period in March 2024.
Limiting myself to only using a small modular case was a great learning experience. Each track was done in one take and recorded as stereo so there was little room for tinkering afterwards. Five main tracks form the basis of the EP with some shorter ideas used as intermissions with my intention being to show the diversity of the Buchla way of working.
My previous musical output, including my score for Seagull, singles and EPs are also available via the links below.
If you want to listen to my TV showreel, this link will take you straight there.
About
I grew up in the North but live in the South. I’ve been in bands since I was fourteen and have toured and recorded since then.
I’ve written music for film, tv, advertising, theatre and the web in all kinds of styles and different production types from drama, animation and sports to documentaries, game and cookery shows. I even wrote a theme for a toy bionic bear for the soap Emmerdale but I’m probably best known for my work on the Doctor Who spin-off series The Sarah Jane Adventures and the CBBC show Wizards vs Aliens.
Over the past couple of years I've written the score to the feature film Seagull, two animations for BBC New Creatives (including the award winning Intensive) two videos for The Guardian newspaper, the documentary My Life: On The Fast Track for CBBC, released an album and an EP of original material and most recently worked with my brother Sam on the BBC One reality game show The Traitors.
As well as composing I also do production, synth programming, session guitar work and mixing for other musicians.
