My new EP, six is now available on Bandcamp. It’s made entirely with noises I made with my guitar, most of which have been heavily processed in Ableton.
new ep
I done a new EP: peaceful pursuits, now up on Bandcamp.
It’s about walking and wondering. It features samples from a wonderful 1970s film about the Cleveland Way, which I’m currently walking (although I have to say it’s far less disturbing that the film).

unweather
My new album, unweather, is now available on Bandcamp.
unweather is the result of over a year’s experimentation with different approaches to making sound and music. It features processed and manipulated field recordings made in a number of locations, from London to Hebden Bridge, to the Isle of Mull, along with extracts from tape loops, guitar and other electronic instrumentation. Granular synthesis is used to create lo-fi drones, textures and atmospheres. Sounds are cut up and used to synthesise new sounds, sitting alongside recordings from the natural world.
unweather is loosely about storms, personal, political and literal.
part one [20:33]: stormfront / in stillness / coastal / tidal / extinction
part two [21:32]: wrecked / backwash / mud-slaked / decayed / depth
making marks
I’m chuffed that one of my tracks, in stillness, is used to introduce filmmaker’s Naveed Nasir’s documentary about a collaboration between artist Izzy Parker and Milton Keynes Art Centre.
