My first book ‘Sound Signatures: Crafting Your Electronic Music Identity‘ is being published by Focal Press in December 2025.

Designed to provoke curiosity and foster creative thinking and experimental practice, this book spans 12 chapters covering synthesis, creative sampling, workflow techniques, vocal processing, use of noise and texture, and an assortment of ways to create and manipulate sound within a musical context.

Contact me for masterclasses, lectures or tuition.

Score, sound design, location recording, mixing for Moral Object, a short horror film by Dan Moss.

Script, direction, photography, sound, editing and technical delivery for Perfect You, an interactive video installation.

Technical delivery for Pwy I Fi, an immersive audio installation by Rhys Miles-Thomas and John Rea.

Score, Foley and sound design for Sands of Time animation.

Recording, editing, sound design and mixing for Pigs! radioplay by Colin Burrows (trailer).

For audio, I am able to teach all aspects of music production, sound design or live performance (including audio-visual work) and I focus on using Ableton Live for my tuition. If you are interested in live video/VJing I also teach Resolume Avenue.

I have devised a series of modules covering all aspects of using these apps, from the very basics through to advanced setups. This modular approach gives you great flexibility to choose exactly what and how you learn.

For many years I ran the London Ableton User Group and this is excerpt from an online session aimed at people perhaps new to working with Ableton Live:

Here is an example of the course development work I’ve done – developing a workshop directly for Ableton for other people to run:

In the role of installation artist, playback engineer or show designer I have created many custom audio-only or audio-visual setups using Ableton Live at the core but which can also bring in VJ/media-server software such as Resolume Avenue or VDMX.

This has been for my own stage-shows or other stage design, theatre or art installation commissions. I am used to working on a shoestring budget but am keen to embrace larger projects as well.

For the final touch I create a touch-screen control panel to run the whole show via the Lemur software. I have worked on solo shows, group/band projects and surround sound setups.

Please get in touch if you have a creative live show that you need my help to realise, need a show technician/operator or if you wish to bring me in as a consultant on an existing project – my head bristles with ideas that need to get out!
