Hello filmmaker and creator friends! Just a friendly PSA to let you know that you can now license my album “Fractures” for your projects through the great folks at @filmpac . I’ve been a customer of theirs for years for my commercial productions so it’s an honor to join their music roster as an artist. Link in bio.

Some frames from this week’s recording session with the @budapestscoring orchestra. Such a great experience hearing my music played by these incredible musicians.

I am thrilled to announce that I have contributed a new piece titled “Leading” to the upcoming @opiacommunity collaborative album set to release on May 16th, 2024. OPIA is a flourishing community of artists founded by @olafurarnalds and his team. Looking forward to the release of this phenomenal compilation. More about the project: This compilation is a truly unique project. A completely community-sourced project from start to finish, it features music, artwork, visuals and more directly from the members of our community via the OPIA Discord server. The 14 tracks were chosen meticulously from well over a 100 submissions and represent the breadth of talent and genres within the community. The composers hail from all over the world; Kenya, USA, Scotland, Ireland, Japan, Poland, UK, Greece, Italy, Germany, France and Australia. The artwork was made by community member Jonathan Newton, chosen from a number of artwork submissions, and depicts 14 different birds - one for each of the composers featured on the album.
