Always a great honour to have some of my music featured on the excellent Hypnagogue Podcast. This time it’s the track Continuum from my ambient space music album Merging The Infinite. Many thanks once again to John Shanahan for his continued support of my music alongside some other great musicians in the ambient genre.

Just added to the site is a new orchestral music track called Awakening. The track is an epic piano-led orchestral instrumental aimed at film and documentary makers looking for atmospheric music for their videos and trailers.
Starting with a simple piano riff, the tracks builds to an epic orchestral arrangement with strings and brass at 2:48.
The overall feel is inspirational and powerful with a slightly darker tone, ideally suited for personal stories or subjects of social uprising (e.g. Occupy protests, financial events or human rights issues).
You can listen to the track or immediately license it for your project here:

Here’s a nice new video from 3D graphic artist Dylan Gauld featuring my atmospheric ambient music track Antarctica.

Neon City is a new atmospheric ambient instrumental music track featuring warm organic washes of sound, slow and deep hypnotic bass, sparse percussive beats and lush Blade Runner style synths. Would work well as underscore for documentaries or atmospheric film scenes. Watch the promo video above featuring stunning photography of dark dramatic cityscapes and atmospheric night time scenes.
The track is available to download as an mp3 and can also be licensed at low cost for use in your films, documentaries, videos, promos and trailers from:
Mellow, crisp, medium tempo instrumental breakbeats with upbeat cinematic string effects and warm bass topped off with sun-kissed soft melodic trumpet lines. Summery vibes for a positive atmosphere that would be ideal music for travel videos, TV shows or documentaries.
Starting with the sounds of waves gently lapping on the beach, ideal music for relaxing on chilled summer nights with a glass of wine or lazing on the beach but would also work well in holiday and vacation videos or fashion documentaries.
Now up on the site is my new ambient space music track Coronal Mass Ejection (promo video above). The track is an 8 minute atmospheric instrumental soundscape with a subtle but epic slow burning deep space/solar feel.
