Am currently staying in a beautiful hotel in Palma and, inevitably, there is a phone next to the toilet. WHAT IS THIS THING FOR?! Who is making calls while otherwise engaged!?

Music is a very serious business.
One must always approach it with the utmost solemnity and gravitasโ€ฆ no exceptions.

(Definitely no laughing allowed.)

Tomorrow, Iโ€™m off to Prague to wave a stick around.

My first time conducting. My own compositions. A real orchestra. A LOT of work has led to this moment.

Nervous. Excited. Ready. ๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฟ

Thereโ€™s nothing like replacing samples with a real voice. I recently brought in a singer to record live โ€”and the track came alive. It breathes now.

Have you had a moment where live performance transformed your music?

Track drops soon. Watch this space.

Oh, go on then! Decided to give it a go myself. I am reliably informed that I don't look *that* old, but I am pleased that if ChatGPT has gotten J.Williams vibes from my reference photo, then I can think of worse comparisons! #composer #ai #toy #music #conductor #indiedev

Hi Victor - actually, I totally agree with you! I've changed the description on SoundCloud but, alas, it's too late to edit this post! Thank you so much for the great feedback!

I made music!! This piece unfolds with a delicate piano. The orchestration paints soft, shimmering textures that ebb and flow. It invites stillness, holding space for reflection, peace, and the quiet joy of discovery.

At 4pm UK time today, I'll be on with Guy Michelmore and some of the Thinkspace Education team to answer any questions about my experience as an MA student as part of the Open Day! Links at thinkspace.ac.uk/postgraduate... Be amazing to see people there!

The Boy does a C major scale which is impressive because itโ€™s grade 8 stuff (if we separate grade 1 into 8 sub-grades). #ProdigalSon #piano #parenting #composer

Eavesdropping in on a chat between Howard Shore, David Chronenberg, and John Burlingame. I mean, I had a ticket and everything. I didnโ€™t just break into their living room. #ScreenScoring #FilmScoring #FilmComposer

Conducting my original scores in Prague next month with these amazing people! Reworking parts for the ensemble as the line-up threw me a curve-ballโ€”super fun!

You'll be great! It seems daunting, but once you get in the zone it's like a puzzle of how to best communicate your intentions to the players.

๐ŸŽผ Some composers dread itโ€”but I genuinely love music engraving! Itโ€™s oddly therapeutic, like solving puzzles to turn notes into art. Anyone else find joy in detailed notation? Iโ€™d love to hear your thoughts! #MusicEngraving #ComposerLife #GameAudio #FilmComposer #IndieGameDev

I only went and got a Steam Deck. The wife isnโ€™t as happy as the children. Also, the perspective on this photo makes it look far bigger than it is! Or maybe it makes my daughter look smaller than she is? #gamergirl #indiedev #games #gamer

Some lovely feedback on this piece from all and sundry, for which I'm grateful! It was just a little noodle that seems to have struck a chord...pardon the pun. #music #composition #simple #gentle. I'll get it put out on Spotify at some point.
