Winter update from me!

This month I have a remix of dropping from the brilliant . They’ve done a fantastic broken beat rework of Family featuring . I was approached by a lot of people who wanted to remix this track. There are a few “unofficial” remixes out there 👀 But Quiet Dawn really brought something unique to it and I love what they’ve done! The remix is out as part of the new comp, which is out now! Thanks to everyone who’s supported the remix so far including Kev Beadle, Agent J, DJ BobaFatt, Beanenoodler. Big thanks to Aly Gillani for featuring on Bandcamp Selects. An honor.

I’ve also contributed to two art installations, this month, composing original scores for works by longtime collaborators and one with for and Prism festival.

Onward!

It was a really beautiful project to work on. Thanks to Anna and Davi for trusting me with this project.

Tonight at the pop up in , I’ll be bringing together some of my favourite things - horror films, film scores and sound systems - as I step up to host a Rainy Heart Film Club Halloween Special.

Come and live deliciously.

Like a lot of people I’ve been thinking about my relationship with social media lately — especially as an artist trying to share my work and stay connected with people who support it. In an effort to be more mindful about what I post, which platforms I support, and how I engage with people, I’ve put together a new online hub.

Here you can listen to or buy my music, find out about upcoming gigs, and generally just see what I’m up to creatively. There’s a newsletter too, if you want to keep updated about live dates, releases, events etc…

I’m one of 1,000+ musicians who are jointly releasing this album today to protest the UK government’s planned changes to copyright law, which would hand the life’s work of the country’s musicians to AI companies for free.

It’s an album of recordings of empty studios, which is what will have if the government’s plans go ahead.
