Ahoy! Little update of a few recent things over here:
The wonderful @boci.music released their album Scenes from UniXia, produced and mixed by me. Not my first intergalactic concept album and hopefully not my last! Feat @jonclark_music@archiecmossmusic@emmytheharp@trjcampbell@tlkvox aswell as others in the string section. Mega thanks to Beci for having faith in me to realise this vision 🙏🏼
Also recently mixed (and engineered some of) a soundtrack by @danielinzani for @our_land_documentary , a film about land ownership in the UK which premiered at @sheffdocfest recently (also mixed some of Dan’s brilliant triple album which came out on @hiddennotesrecords last year)
Mixed an upcoming album from @_natalieholmes brilliantly produced by @william_j_stokes , a few singles have dropped already.
Been working on a v exciting album with @jskeay recorded by @cosmosheldrake
Also new music with @rachaeldadd , @rjlegate , @hover.fly.music , upcoming live vids, and lots more.. s’all go!
Was a ridiculous honour to be invited to play at @lakeofstars with @rachaeldadd back in September.
Before our show we were taken on a trip with @ukinmalawi to witness the damage done by recent flooding in the area, where we met and heard the stories of villagers who’s livelihoods had been devastated by this climate-induced crisis.
We’re putting on a fundraising event for the village we visited at @thejamjar_bristol on Oct 27th with @sisanda_myataza and @oakchoir - please come on down! Tix via Headfirst.
Absolutely wild to play the Other Stage this year. Huaage thanks to @thestaves and gang for having me along AND for covering Shania! There’s a live acoustic sesh we did up on the beeb too.
And so concludes 2 months on the road playing synths and bass with this gang. Top times with the toppest folks!
Shoutouts ALSO to @dombowman for the photos and generally being an absolute boss, @friendsofmemorial for the Irish hangs and heartmelting harmonies, and @annabsavage for 🔝 vibes on and off stage throughout the UK 🙌
Been having a marvellous time out on the road with with @thestaves . After 3 weeks in the US ✅ and a quick re-up at home, we’re out on the european leg before the victory lap round the UK! Remaining dates on the last slide. Come say hiii 👋
Oh hello again
Remix number 2 has landed, this one from @robpemberton_ who did produce, mix and play many an instrument on the album. Swipe for a photo of said Rob and said album.
One last remix on its way in a couple of weeeeks.
AME 🌞

I remixed a beautiful track by my friend Tom Adams and it’s out today on the fantastic @moderna.records !
Tom and I go way back, with most of our time together spent up Scottish hills at New Year, so it was great to finally collaborate on a thing. The EP is a collection of B-sides and remixes from his release ‘Golden Waves’ on the same label.
Seasonal excerpts feat. Maida Vale sesh with @thestaves , tubs on tour with @leisuresociety , writing/recording with @annasheardmusic and some snowy highland treats. Now back in the studio saddle for the forseeable 🤓
A little while back, @thestaves came over to get out the city and demo up a few new songs.
One of those tunes we worked on together became the title track of the new album, and is out today!
Produced by @congletonjohn , who’s gone and masterminded another total banger of a record.
