02/06/10--22:27: Broken Saints volume 3 (chan 1275553)

The soundtrack to the award-winning 'motion comic epic' continues as the eerie, compelling vibe of the first two volumes ('Passage' and 'A Suite Hereafter') moves into the series' darker second half.


02/09/10--08:57: A Suite Hereafter – Broken Saints volume 2 (chan 1275553)

A Suite Hereafter reflects my fascination with historical, spiritual and literary notions of resurrection. At times powerful and intense, at others dreamy and mystical... a striking, challenging and original album.


02/13/10--15:18: ‘continuum’ solo piano series (chan 1275553)

Fulfilling a lifelong dream, in 1999 I inaugurated the 'continuum' concert series. These solo concerts are fully improvised, long format live performances drawing on jazz, classical and New Age influences. The listener is invited to join in a remarkable journey, a leap of faith...


02/13/10--16:17: Stillness3 – meditation in the form of sound (chan 1275553)

Organic, contemplative music created from the calm and energy of the moment, without haste or urgency... a flowing collage of sound, rhythm, colour and texture. This is music to bathe in, to relax and renew the body and spirit - music that speaks to the stillness within us.


02/13/10--23:14: Passage – Broken Saints volume 1 (chan 1275553)

A hybrid of electronic and acoustic, melodic and experimental, Eastern and Western influences. An allegorical narrative about the creative process, expressed through instrumental music.


02/14/10--03:49: Aeos Records (chan 1275553)

Aeos Records is my online label, home to more or less all the music I've been involved with over the last 20 years or so. It is broken down into 'projects', which are also presented here. Most albums available through Aeos Records are linked from thumbnails on this site.


02/17/10--06:51: Broken Saints Selected (chan 1275553)

A personal selection of the 'core' series soundtrack, including the major character themes and crucial moments from the Saintly journey...


02/13/11--15:06: Broken Saints soundtrack series (chan 1275553)

Mostly instrumental and electronic, often ambient or atmospheric... This work is deeply concerned with the subtle, dynamic interplay of acoustic and electronic sounds and textures; between the spontanaeity, depth and physicality of real instruments played by real people, and the precision and infinite possibilites of digital editing and computer-assisted sound design.


02/13/11--16:25: Fearless Creativity!… (chan 1275553)

Fearless Creativity! is my blog about the creative journey - and about learning to transcend the blocks and fears that keep us from embracing it fully. It explores the philosophy, psychology and spirituality of living creatively and intentionally.


07/28/11--21:17: Sound Fascination (chan 1275553)

Sound Fascination is ‘a journal of sound explorations, improvisations and other adventures’, with tracks posted as I make them in a kind of rapid-fire, from-the-hip creative process. The basic rules are that I start and finish each piece in a single sitting, after which I post it immediately, and that I spend no more than [...]
