Lovely day at Abbey Road
Grateful to have my music played so exquisitely by the Carducci and Ligeti quartets

One of my happiest friendships is with Ryan O’Neal - aka Sleeping at Last

We decided to put our friendship to the test - booking Abbey Road studios for a day - coming in with nothing - and only leaving when we had something written and fully recorded

Is it just me or is this staircase actually a stone brontosaurus hiding in plain sight?

So annoying that my computer doesn’t recognise the word ‘Diegetic’ [music emanating from within a scene/ in camera]

So my notes have been heading to my editor full of diabetic warnings…

I was interviewed by Rob Hughes for @uncut_magazine about working as Scott Walker’s arranger and conductor
Brought back many strong memories.
RIP Scott x

I don't drink coffee, I take tea, my dear
I like my toast done on one side
And you can hear it in my accent when I talk
I'm an Englishman in New York…

I wanted a mocha
Stop judging me
It was awesome

It’s been a big week in many ways. IYKYK
So today called for something a bit different…
Plasma Fusion!

I was a very bad physics student at school-and yet I’m fascinated by it
Excited to return in order to record the hottest explosion on Earth in the near future…

Any other fans of his on here? 💙📚
