I made my first official remix for the great German post-punk band Angst4 and their song ‘In Gefahr’. I dissected all their stems and transformed them into an electromagnetic whirlwind of gloomy dangerous sounds. Enjoy the trip. Headphones recommended. Listen here. X
Soundpaths is a project by Manchester based music charity Brighter Sound as part of SICK Festival‘s MINDSCAPES programme. It is a digital soundmap in the form of a running and walking app for residents of Moston and Harpurhey. Greater Manchester artists were invited to contribute site specific sounds to the soundtrack of the app which was composed by composer Yoni Collier. I sonically represented the Blue Bell pub through combining field recordings of the surrounding areas and a sound recording of an old Facebook video that shows guests of the pub singing together, merging the sonic present and past, evoking a sense of nostalgia. Follow this link to download and use the app.
I produced special one of show for Reform Radio presenting Manchester’s experimental electronic music producers: listen back here.
I start presenting my project and my most recent collaborative EP with Hervé also known as Nevsky Perspective – we conducted a sound walk interview in Alexandra Park which I will play to you. Other guests in this show are sound artistGary Fisher, genre-bending electronic music producers PERiiSU, Iceboy Violet and Clay . This show will be a journey through field recordings, conversations, interviews, sounds, beats, ranging from abstract to danceable, from acoustic to synthetic. We will talk about sound art, electronic music, compositional and production strategies, the role of improvisation and all the exciting projects we are all involved in despite lockdown.
You can now listen back to my third mix for alto radio as part of my new Sonic Journeys show. This mix is all about patterns, structures and experimentation. Expect repetition, surprises. Noises, orchestras. Overlaps, crossfades. New sensations. Hope you enjoy!

This music video for ‘A Walk 2‘ is the polar opposite to the video for ‘A Walk 1’. Whereas the first video was serving warm vintage ambient vibes, this one is serving nightmarish Stranger Things vibes.
