Currently in Post Production......

Finishing the new motion picture score to a thriller titled "Truth about Kerry" starring Stana Katic from ABC's CASTLE.

Mixing the upcoming album for the wonderful and talented Lawrence Lynn.

We are about to start the next ImaginationGym CD version called "THE MAGIC BALLOON RIDE" which will be mixed this spring. I think we will be updating "THE ENCHANTED FOREST" to give it an 'American' version while we are at it.

The SCREW CUPID score album is still in the works - it should at least be going up for sale online before the summer hits.

Recent Projects.......
Finished working on the production trailer for the upcoming movie on the life of Mother Teresa. Here's the poster, with the new working title "The Letters". Its shot by the Oscar nominated Jack Green using the award winning crew from Spielbergs "Munich" and stars Max Von Sydow, Rutger Hauer, and is hopefully being voiced over by Peter O' Toole. The projects, written and directed by Bill Riead is absolutely amazing!


Most recent episode of the TV series "Joni and Friends":

Chris Boyd (FIFTY PILLS, WHAT WE DO IS SECRET) and Mircea Monroe (THE ULTIMATE GIFT, FoxTV's DRIVE) star in SCREW CUPID, a razor sharp, hilarious, and sometimes all too real look at the insanity that is being single, the fear and vulnerability of letting someone actually know you, and the different lengths people go to to fool themselves into fooling themselves that everything's okay.


Alien Chatter were in town and in studio recording there sophmore album "Invasion". Having recently signed a contract with Six Degrees Records, as part of their Emerging Artist series, Alien Chatter are Rodney Lee ..s and Satnam Ramgotra on drums and percussion.

The music stems from the concept of fusing the genres of Indian music and Jazz Piano and Satnam says:

“We ask you to let go of any preconceived notions of what music is or should be, and sit back, relax and take a journey through the cosmos and listen to the Alien Chatter”

Upcoming Projects......

It's 2010 and on to the entire feature score for the Teresa project:

We're starting post-production sound and music on an untitled Conrad Jackson pilot. We're scoring the Anupam Barve film on Rural Suicide in India. Continuing with upcoming episode of the TV series "Joni and Friends"
