The sound of those silences amplified and adjusted

About Me

The Silent Committee perform a varied collection of original, experimental music featuring electronic and acoustic instruments. The recording quality of the songs featured on this profile vary depending on the recording device used...ranging from a battered dictaphone micro-cassette to fully digital studio quality. These songs are written with the sole intention of enjoyment by the composer and anyone else with an open mind, however if anyone is interested in using these songs or wishes to have a score created for background music in film, art instalations or other media formats drop us a message or comment and I shall try my very best. I am also interested in the challenge of producing any genre of music should anyone wish to employ me.
