About: 
Living in Cambridgeshire, I am a PC based musician. My strengths in soundtrack wriitng are definitely around dramatic (action/suspense), atmospheric and orchestral, but in song writing I tend to be more commercially orientated. I have a wide range of gear that enables me to create a good breadth of sound palettes and atmospheres and am a proficient user of Cubase 4.
I am just finished building my first professional recording studio which will be the base for my music output, and for my growing and evolving
output as as songwriter, producer and remixer. The studio is also available for the public to hire. Further details area available on my website link below.
I am primarily seeking commissioned work but am also in the process of compiling my own production library - but whatever your requirements all enquiries gladly received!
Music is my absolute passion and I have been writing since I was around 11 or 12 years old. Whilst taking the usual route of joining the school orchestra and choir and taking a few grades (in my case on clarinet!) I was always drawn towards writing rather than performing. I love the science of music - the structure of harmonies, inversions and suspended chords - how the mechanics of it all can produce such beauty and emotion. How simple ideas can create epic power and scale.
Am always looking for a new challenge - so feel free to get in touch for an intial discussion. You can hear more of my music by visiting my website at www.cre8ivemusic.com
Cheers.
