As well as the stuff here, I do freelance soundtrack composition and audio design.
I would like nothing better than to hear from people who are thinking about getting audio involved in projects of any scale.
I've worked on documentary film, animation and website fx.
Drop me a message via myspace or visit www.getsound.co.uk and let's discuss......
Or, if you live in the London area, and are interested in forming some kind of band/noisemaking collective, get in touch! I'll play anything except funk.

Hey, how's it going? Heard you'd stolen a twix and gone down on a ten stretch but I stuck up for you and said you didn't like twixes and that it was probably a bag of revels. Do they let you use social networking sites in the nick?
nope, both my bands are going well so far. i saw a band called wave machines on sat night. go and see them at proud galleries... you won't regret it! x

She's alive!!!! Glad you like the tunes, gigs are indeed the next step, just need to find a bass player... If I may I'd like to offer a Louis Walsh style critique of your work. Ahem... "You've got a great voice, you've got what it takes and you're going to go a long way in this competition!" Unfortunately for you Em, you're not a freak so Louis probably wouldn't pick you for one of his own. Oh well, nevermind. It doesn't matter what Louis thinks, ignore him, he's an idiot.
Hey Em, happy new year to you! Hope all's well in sunny north London. Please feel free to check out our new tunes and leave a Louis Walsh-esque critique of our handy work. Cheers!
