“Nova’s Theme” from HOMUNCULUS!
@aitanadoyle ‘s performance is unreal and pulls some energy out the aether.
So grateful for Jonny & Tara’s strings to bring this piece to LIFE.

Homunculus - @owenkibby made this beautifully bizarre film based on the play by @santiagomallan . It was a gift to be able to score something so unique.
It’s premiering in NYC May 2nd at 7:00pm Village East Cinema at @lesfilmfestival
NYC friends, this will be a fun night. GET TIX!
So excited to share that Other Side will be premiering at SXSW!!
I feel immensely grateful to have composed the music for this beautiful film—Carter & Heather truly put their whole heart into making this.
It’s a moving story about the autonomy and choice we have with the inevitable. I can’t wait to share it with you all.

Alexa @blrrrx & I recorded a bunch of vocals for this in our old rehearsal space (my parents living room), where we used to make music with our band for many years.
Excited to have her debut on a film score!
Music for this tender short film by @zzz.mar is out, hope it serves as a little digital resting point for you.

Our lil movie won an EMMY! 🤠 I feel extraordinarily lucky to tell true stories for a living, and even luckier when those stories concern living artists and immigrant communities. With LAYQA for @pbs , I got to do both. My heart is full 💜
Eternal gratitude to @layqanunayawar for your singular vision, @cmball_ for being the heart of this film from the outset, @publicartfund for bringing art to places both visible and urgent, and all the folks at @sota_nj and @newarkterminala for championing this film.

Little clip of my track ‘Figures’ - I found Layqa’s art incredibly mesmerizing, and has an almost hypnotic quality for me. I wanted to reflect that in the music, and make something that felt like a gently swirling meditation, with gestural phrases acting like sudden brushstrokes.
Maybe I should’ve titled it Brushstrokes, whoopsss

The Promised Land! I had the pleasure of orchestrating @danromer ’s utterly raw & prolific score for this film.
We spent a week in Hamburg recording orchestra, and got to go deep with some seriously incredible musicians. This one means a lot to us, go get into it!
Making the music for this show has been, irrefutably cathartic. It’s been surreal scoring this show with the legend himself, @danromer .
