Another one extracted from the pre-COVID world of joy from circa 2019. I wrote and recorded some this in the UK and added a new bass line and synths in Spring 2021 in Dubai. I'm massively proud of this tune - a straight-ahead rock track with…

Lyrically it's about the time I had a 'proper' job and how (despite the fact that I liked my immediate team and my role) I could not adapt to the nonsense involved in climbing the greasy pole in a corporate world. Initially I wasn't sure about…

Rewind to Summer 2019... I put the bones of this song together in the UK; the lyric reflects the absolute positivity I was feeling at the time (lots of diverse work, travel, great weather, BBQs in the garden) etc. The melody was lifted from…

So this one is the coda to the 'Waves' project. It started life in the UK in July 2021 and I worked on it during August back in Dubai before completing it back in the UK in September (not a good carbon footprint era!). It's a fitting end to…

I can't believe I 'forgot' a track that I only started working on a month ago! Anyway, here it is; I was in isolation (again) in July 2021 and had just finished a piece of work for a client that included a section on creating 'moments of magic…

The second and final tune conceived, believed and achieved during my UK business visit in July/August 21. Two standouts for me - I'm proud of the bass lines in this (and love how the Jazz bass sounds) - I did a bit of multi tracking on one part…

Two days into a return to the UK to work in July 21 and I tested positive for COVID - happily I was asymptomatic but it meant 11 days in isolation which is where this tune was born. It started (as often my sketches do) with the bass riff that…

Yet another one that was revisited from the 'half-finished ideas' archive! Again, because it was old the original bass guitar audio file sounded very ropey (shame, as it was done on the Stingray and sounded so... Fizzy!) So I re-did the bass…

Yet another from the very creative period in the summer of 2016... I recall I had time on my hands! The original bass track was done on my Fender Jazz 'Geddy Lee' and sounded great. Sadly, several versions of Logic Pro later resulted in the file…

I have lots of quick musical 'sketches' kicking about and this is another that I did nothing with for 5 years...😳 I revisited this one in May 2021 and built on the verse/chorus/middle 8 that was already in place. I had a bass riff in my head…
