Hi 👋 I’m a composer, musician, and sound designer known for my immersive cinematic scores and deep soundscapes. Drawing inspiration from dark ambient, cinematic orchestral music, and ambient synthesiser compositions, my work is designed to take listeners on a unique journey in the mind.
With a focus on atmospheric sound design, my music spans film, gaming, live performances, and my growing catalogue on this channel. My latest project, Sanctuary, blends haunting melodies with darkness and tension, often breaking into moments of blissful light, reflection, and peace.
“It's a trip... and it’s intentional.”
I aim to upload every two weeks on a weekend at 7pm UK time.
In the 1980's, my dream was set... hearing film scores by James Horner, John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith, Vangelis & other modern film composers.
It is my childhood dream to make music for Film, TV & Games!
If you’d like to help fuel the journey, you can support me on Ko-Fi ☕❤️

Happy new year everyone! I hope you all had a nice Christmas too🎄 I’ve just setup some of my speakers in the lounge of my new house, complete with ambient lighting… 😂 step by step, it’s getting gradually more homely 🙏🏻💎
Once the holidays are over and the usual routine kicks in again… The Leeds gig live performance will be on its way. I forecast the upload to be on Friday 9th January 2026! 😉 Take care of each other people… 🫡

I’m keeping it real in the new house 👌
Absolutely loads to do and unpack, and work out what’s going where…. And where the money’s gonna come from too! 🤪🤣😂… and I’m so grateful to be realising that this is all part of the fun! 💎
I hope you are all well and as happy as can be people! 😃
For anyone that’s interested and that can make it… I’m playing a jam session with a fellow ambient musician this coming Saturday 15th 6pm. It’s inside The Jam Shack music shop in The Piece Hall, Halifax… it should be a good do!
Me and the musician Steve are going to improvise and see what happens! Come down to watch if you’re free… we will be playing at least an hour I think.
The videos will commence again asap!! I just need to get myself an Adobe license again!!! I’ll be setting up my gear inside this room (see the picture) and there will be many a Sanctuary session held in here! X
Love you all xXx

Hi everyone! :-) Just a short and quick post to simply say... I have NOT stopped my musical work here. That will not happen... not while I'm here and breathing it won't... I'm VERY shortly about to move into my new home... and once I do... the momentum will really get started... 💎 and I love you all! xXx
