I produce music from my studio, Phonic Studios in Dublin, which I run with fellow music/video guy Paul Byrne. Right now, I'm working on a track for a vocal group who don't have a name yet, and I'm in the middle of arrangements for Carl Nelkin's second album. I just finished producing Calvin Scully's new single - it's on the way!
Before that, I produced an album of music written to the words of Ballad of Reading Gaol by Oscar Wilde for an Irish artist called The Homo Erectus (otherwise known as Feargal O'Huiginn).
When Paul and I aren't makin' music, we're making videos for our new media company, Optophonic. We've made promos and ads for people like Creative Labs, World Vision, SAP and Bord Bia. We even do the odd music video. For example, we edited the last 2 Jack L live DVDs.

I just uploaded the two songs that didn't make the final cut for the album. Hve a listen. This'll be the last time I put anything up before the album comes out. We're going to master it in Abbey Road on the 11th December!! AT LAST!
I just stuck up two new songs on my page there. After this there are only two more to go and then the whole album will have been put up (not all in one go though, obvioulsy).
Have a listen and let me know what you think. Hope you like them! My current favourite is up there too...
