About Me

Ok, I hate writing about myself so I won't do much of that here. Suffice it to say that I am sound artist, a recording engineer and producer. I've created, engineered, produced, performed, composed and designed for a lot of people many of whom you'll find here on myspace. Check out their sites and the music therein, lots of it I will have had some part in the making/recording of it. I freelance at a number of studios and also run the VCA Sound Research Studio. Since moving to Melbourne (from Tasmania) I have composed and designed for over 80 theatre shows, including dance, drama and installations, some 50 plus films and engineered and/or produced countless Albums, EPs, Demos and helped many artists and bands on their musical journey. My preference is for the more varied and unusual styles and bringing originality, subtlety and flavour to whatever I am working with. I also continue to compose and perform my own works and improvisations in varied situations. When not in the studio I can be found attending a wide variety of gigs, enjoying fine food, cooking, climbing mountains, or sailing.

Some of the people I've worked with: Tony Gould, Lucy Guerin, Donna Coleman, Kate Denborough, Luke Howard, Mike Story, Bumford, Lawrence Folvig, Marc Hannaford, TasDance, Anna Smith, Helen Herbertson, Wendy McPhee, Mary Sitarenos, Mathew Thomson, Scott Tinkler, Tamil Rogeon, Ryan Ritchie, OSH10, Mike MacGregor, True/Live, Yellow Brick Dreams, Since Tom Died, Opposite of Velocity, Australian Show Band, Liz Flynn, Rachel Muraca, Tim Smith, Eamon McNelis, Aaron Choulai, Gian Slater, Jo Schornikow, Ben Hendry, Mark Fitzgibbon, Peter Knight, Daniel Farrugia, Rob Longstaff, Gideon Brazil, Jon Delaney, Ronny Farella, Shannon Barnett, Lachlan McClean, Tamara Murphy, Anita Hustas, Doug Gibson, Melbourne Guitar Quartet,Sophie Brous, Dave Evans, Jeremy Hopkins, Nina Czempinski, Roger Alsop, Jessi London, Phil Collings, Hayley Cramer, Near Your House, Kashi Trathen, Martin Martini and the Bone Palace Orchestra, Scott Kendrick, Harry Shaw-Reynolds, Tori Pearce, Marrisa Skovron, Alistair Parson, James Patterson, Nathan Slater, Chris Bekker, Ren Walters, Ainsley Wills, Caerwen Martin, Xani, Kath Buckell, Sascha Pollard and many more.
