We're looking for a music designer!
Come and be part of my music team. You'll be in good hands - as a large in-house audio team, we're a friendly, creative collective.
This is NOT a composition role.
It requires experience in technical music systems.

Chaired/ created Qs for this months ago for #AirCon25.
We discussed intricacies of creating dynamic music systems that adapt to gameplay, and shared our experiences working on high-profile titles.
Warning ⚠️ It got a bit deep.
Thanks for having me for a 3rd time AW.

Hi composers. I need your mixing engineer and mastering engineer recommendations for hybrid orchestral music, please and thank you.
Specifically engineers with serious credits who are used to mixing MIDI mockups with live recordings.
Making a Rolodex for myself.
DMs open. Thanks so much x
It was a pleasure to chair this and chat to dear friends months ago for AirCon 2025. It’s one of 3 online sessions I hosted last year.
Expect one more interview to be uploaded, soon.
Let me know if any of this resonated with you. Grab an iced matcha/coffee/ tea and enjoy.

I got my geek on with @insertcointees today - check it out! www.insertcoinclothing.com
Building up my points as I go! Just discovered the email that I’ll get a hat and a pin. Ooh. Thanks guys. If it’s a hat that isn’t ‘me’, it’ll make a great gift for a friend ❤️
Women don’t want to be with a ‘nice guy’. We want to be with a good man.
Went on a date on Saturday where the guy held the door open for me but let it go and it hit an older couple behind us.
‘Someone who’s kind to you but rude to the waiter is not a nice person’.
Date instantly over.
Omg - what is this Insert Coin advent calendar and how do I become cool enough to get one? Obsessed!!!
Get yourself a producer like mine.
A day off?
Important question is……
Apartment is clean and no jobs need doing. I’ll make soup and recover.
What do I download and play tomorrow on PS5?
Important to note I’m not the composer of course!
Spent 2 days music editing creating 1hr+ of music for something cool. 500 tracks and counting. Will stop when I’m told I can’t deliver any more music.
I’m so happy.
Now on vacation until Wednesday❤️
Work apps = deleted.
Edinburgh, I’m on my way!
Photo of the front end screen of south of midnight.
Still from south of midnight. Hazel the main character is speaking with a talking fish, that of which is an intricately detailed character almost reminiscent of fabric.
Screenshot from the options menu of south of midnight. It details that the player has an option of Nighttime, Narrow, Medium, Wide, and Full dynamic audio range.
Screenshot of options menu in south of midnight. Players have control over master, dialogue, sound effects, ambience, music, and lead vocal faders.
I’m in awe of this title and halfway through. Adore the artistry. I’m dying to nerd-out about the clever music and systems but experience it yourself. Finishing the game in a mix room, soon. The whole cohesive experience is a warm hug. Here’s to more next Saturday❤️ #SouthOfMidnight #Wwise
Yessss ❤️❤️❤️
And…. but of course you are. ❤️
Cheering for @audiogre.bsky.social, too.
If it can do that, then it’s doing God’s work 🙌
Seriously looking forward to it.
Looking forward to inhaling this after work tomorrow as some bedtime reading. ❤️
Mirror’s Edge is of my favourite games of all-time. Music wasn’t dynamically mixed; was this due to time constraints, limitations of OpenAL as an API, or memory budget of the PS3? Maybe a danger of skipping audio events if exceeding the allocated voice count?

@altblkera.bsky.social girlies, you’re my new fave band. Iconic. If you’re ever here in Manc, give me a shout and let’s do coffee. Congratulations on a fantastic night opening for Pendulum. I’d love to write string parts for you sometime should you ever need them. You’re only getting started ❤️❤️❤️
There are many trying to prey off my expertise recently who fully expect me to leave my full-time gig for insultingly short-term (1-3 month) contracts.
Full on interviews only to drop that casually into conversation. Twice in the past week alone.
Get real, lads. ✌️
Oh goodness.
Womp womp ❤️❤️❤️
Oíche Shamhna Shona Daoibh!
Christians celebrate All Souls Day on November 1st.
In Ireland, Hawthorne trees are culturally protected and roads are built to avoid them. Superstition is strongest in rural areas.
Did you know that Bram Stoker was Irish?
What games are you playing tonight? 👻 🧛
3 games I was slated to work on have been released this year and a 4th one announced their trailer.
It’s moments like these I wonder why I made the choices I had to make at the time and what could’ve/ should’ve been. I’d be a different person. But… for better or worse?
Apologies for naval gazing🙂
G’wan lads xx
Well, that’s a new one;
Awards season is well and truly upon us, once again.
My first FYC advertisement mailed to me from the U.S. to the U.K. as a postcard!
Philip is a master Cellist and composer and wise gent. I always adored this side of the soundtrack. The other two sections are great, too, but his has a unique voice; it features genius textures that only he could flawlessly create.

I’m so unbelievably excited for this man, and his company.
Can’t.
Wait. ❤️

It’s difficult to compare both because one is a blend of x2 teas and the other is a black tea.
Having said that - gold blend! But I can live without it and gladly buy Yorkshire tea.
The shortbread tea from M&S is a hot favourite though. Highly recommend x
It only took me a few years but I finally upgraded to professional. I wanted to stop hosting my reels on YT, as I no longer trust that website with all of its gener*ted slop.
