Delighted to have been invited to play a live improvised set at Sono Electro 2023, Hastings, curated by James Wilkie, Colin Booth and Jillienne Sellner. I’ll be joined by my good friend and collaborator, Joe Zeitlin for an improvised set of cello, violin and live electronics. The piece will be a direct response to the local ecology and our experiences in St Leonards, Hastings.
I’m so happy to have had the chance to join Gemma on her brilliant Soho Radio show, Composers on Film. I had the chance to select some of my favourite pieces of music, from Jonny Greenwood to Ernest Hood and of course, talk about my love for John Cage, whose work has inspired me so much. We also listen to some of my own music, including cues from Grayson’s Art Club, Rockfield: The Studio on the Farm, Surviving Covid, Black Power and an exclusive preview one of my cues from Hannah Berryman’s upcoming feature documentary about Coco Chanel.
Thank you Gemma, for inviting me on. I really enjoyed our conversation.

Fantastic to hear that this year, two productions I have scored have been shortlisted for the Grierson Awards 2022, both in the Prime Video Best Entertaining Documentary category.

Delighted to hear that In Cold Blood has won the International Emmy in the Current Affairs category. Congratulations to director Marcus Plowright and the whole team at DSP
Produced by DSP for ITV Network, this feature-length documentary examined the biggest treatment disaster in NHS history. Directed by Grierson Award-winning and BAFTA-nominated documentary maker Marcus Plowright, this film told the story of how thousands of British haemophiliacs were infected and died from HIV and Hepatitis C after being prescribed infected blood products by the NHS. This landmark film offered viewers a vivid insight into the scale and impact of the tragedy.
