I’m now delivering my music in graphic score firms that are so complex, even the orchestra can’t read them
Unbeatably secure, and quite a departure from tonality

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…

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…

As someone who travels a lot, I take too much joy from terrariums (terrariae?)
This one contains moss from my favourite place to walk and compose music, as well as a lobelia that has probably exploded by now
