About

I'm a composer and multi-mentalist based in London. I write music ranging from whimsical pop, through orchestral textures, to evil noise.

I'm currently putting the finishing touches on an ep of pop material called "Hell Is A Place On Earth". Sneaky previews of these tracks are currently languishing on the player above. It it a collection of songs I wrote when I was younger, but which were recorded badly, or in unpublishable demo versions. These songs, unknown to me at the time, documented my struggle with depression during my twenties. The songs are not all depressing...there's ups and downs, but the overall theme is that of grasping life for what it appears to be, and not worrying so much about all the internal battles that can rage inside yourself.
The ep will be free to download from my website very soon.

I also have some orchestral versions of early AphexTwin material available for free Here.

Continuing on the subject on structure, it is worth noting some "formal" structures. These are a mixture of old classical forms that evolved over a long time and newer, more constructed forms that were created to help give shape to longer pieces of music.
Sonata form …
