  • That Hoverboard Sure Can McFly!
    I felt like a simple, fun project so I created this 80s synthpop track inspired by recently watching the 'Back To The Future' movies. Enjoy!
    Created using Apple loops in Logic Pro X.

  • Null Ship For One
    I had been thinking about Frank Herbert's No-Ships from his Dune books. I imagined myself alone in such a ship, invisible to the universe outside.
    I initially created a purely synth based track but wasn't satisfied with it, so I played around with various ambient Apple loop guitar sounds and then thought that the track sounded super chilled...I hope you like it.

  • Visiting Earth (after all the humans are gone)
    As is often the case, I was thinking (dreaming?) about the future. At the same time, and it's been a couple of months, I had an urge to create some music. It felt so natural to create music again, and so I hope that you enjoy this futuristic ambient dream.

  • Deep, Dark and Dirty
    I started work on this one before Christmas 2023, got distracted by life, and only just came back to it (mid Feb) when I added vocal loops. Enjoy, and get clubbing!

  • Relationship Entropy
    Sometimes relationships decay, even when you don't want them to. I was going to try a vocal on this, but I couldn't find the words...
    This is a Novation Launchpad, ThumbJam (distant guitar), GarageBand (heavy rock guitar with reverb/echo - the 'dacca' sound) track, created October 2023, published after a few weeks (and a few tweaks) in November 2023.

  • Dying Alone In The Dark, at the Bottom of a Long Forgotten Dungeon
    This is a track created for a very specific audience...you like dark fantasy, and dark ambient music, and RPGs. Or some such combination.
    In my mind I imagined my RPG adventurer dying alone in the dark at the bottom of a long forgotten dungeon...as many dungeon delving adventurers would...
    Then there's the long forgotten individuals to consider who actually DID die in such circumstances...
    I haven't posted this track on FB, Twitter, Apple Music, Spotify etc...cos, if it dies alone in the dark then that's rather fitting...
    All synths played by me.
