Always fun watching your mates band play in a bar the size of a living room and dressed up as a big paper mache Horror Dungeon! 💀

Happy Halloween folks! 🎃 💀 👻
In honour of the spookiest time of year, here's that time I turned my own voice into a choir of demonic, doll children on Beyond Hanwell.

Huge congrats to @fayju.bsky.social on the launch of Amazing Frog? on Xbox Game Preview as it nears 1.0!

It was a joy writing a bunch of fun music that spans so many different genres/styles on this project. It's rare to see a small studio able to put so much love and time into a single project.

Amazing evening at the Orchestral Tribute to Tim Burton & Dark Fantasy by Moonlight! 🌙

A fun one bringing some electronic swagger on my track 'Galaxy Defenders' for Frontier Trailer Music's 'Guardians 2' Superhero Orchestral album. Coming soon through 5 Alarm Music.

In 2006 I saw a little band from Brighton open for Sikth in their hometown. 19 years later, last night I saw that band headline the 02 Arena. A special evening with Architects! ❤️

It's the start of Spooky Season and Beyond Hanwell hit it's One Year Anniversary 🥳

In spite of a challenging games market I'm super proud the game found its audience in the Horror community.

Now I've got the itch to write more creepy music and I'd love to hear from devs working in Horror.

Last night reminded why Bleeding Through had such a huge impact on me all the way back in 2004 and why they are the second band I got tattooed! It's good to have you back ♥️

Super proud of my pals in Harbinger for smashing a packed out London show last night! 🤘

Spooky season is right around the corner and the perfect time to have my track 'Diabolical Forces', feature on Jolt Trailer Music's Modern Horror album 'Sanatorium 4'. Coming soon through BMG Production Music 💀

Epic night seeing one of my favorite and criminally underrated bands, The Dali Thundering Concept! 🤘

To The Grave putting on a show last night! 🤘

Combat Music....but make it gnarly and electronic!

In keeping with the new Logo, it was a blast to experiment with a synth only approach to distorted, aggressive music.

When in York, bring home a Ghost! 👻

Off to York this weekend for my Girlfriends Birthday trip, looks like I've found our perfect Bar! 🫶🤘

It's time for a Logo glow up & some new music 🤘

I pride myself on the range of music I've delivered in the past, but have always been drawn to projects that require a musical intensity. This new Logo reflects my influences and ability to work with Guitars, Synths, Sound Design, alongside Orchestra.
