    Here’s some pop for you from Welsh starlets-in-waiting Electrovamp. Cayte and I spent a very happy 48 hours with Kally and Tammy at the beginning of the month penning this brand new track which I finished producing a couple of weeks ago. We love it - let me know what YOU think of this extract.

    Small Things

    Firstly, apologies for the radio silence. Slap me and call me a houseboat if it just hasn’t been a crazy fortnight. Firstly, I’ve moved studio, with the new place waiting to become the spiritual home for my various goings-on for, I hope, many months to come. Secondly, I’ve been ‘pop’-ping like crazy with 2 new tracks with Cayte to come very soon (watch this space), plus a new version of Information Overload, which has now been recorded by Welsh lovelies Electrovamp. I’ve also been writing with the phenomenally talented and lovely Matt Hales from Aqualung and, with him in mind, here’s a project we completed together last year, called Small Things. Matt wrote a poem and a piano piece and gave them to me to record and produce and this is the result. We like it and hope you do too. I promise I won’t be away again for so long…

    John Service: Stronger

    Tags: , , , ,
    Posted in : Media

    I was rummaging through my hard drives last week and came across this rather beautiful thing. John Service is a singer and song-writer who I’ve had the privilege to produce on a number of occasions and, for his birthday, I made him a string-arranged mix of his track ‘Stronger’, which we originally made as a fuller production for his eponymously titled EP. I thought it was high time the world heard it. So, come on world, lend us your ears…

    Iron Butterflies: The Rest Will Follow

    Tags: , , , , ,

    As promised, here’s a second track from the forthcoming ‘Iron Butterflies’ album. As with ‘Khaki Army Tank’, this track is a collaboration with Olivia Bradbury but this time we joined forces with my great friend, composer Matthew King, who wrote the harp, celeste and brass arrangements, the latter of which were then performed by Guildhall graduate Mike Ball. Olivia is once again on sparkling form, with a wonderful lyric and unique vocal performance. Enough from me… kick back, drink it in and let me know what you think.

    Happy Easter! To help celebrate the passing of the first quarter of the year, here’s a huge pop slammer. Another from the Jono Buchanan/Cayte Webber production stable and this one’s a real stallion. Ever wondered what Shania Twain might sound like on acid? Wonder no more…

    Iron Butterflies: Khaki Army Tank

    Tags: , , , ,
    Posted in : Media

    For the past two years, whenever other production work hasn’t (happily) got in the way, I’ve been working on an album project of my own, along with a group of carefully chosen collaborators. This summer, I’m determined to finish it but in the meantime, I thought it might be the right time to start unleashing a few of its completed songs upon the world at large. So, here’s the first of what will become a series of pre-album postings. The song was co-written with Olivia Bradbury who recently graduated from the Guildhall School of Music & Drama’s Jazz course. Her wonderful voice and interesting worldly observations, spelt our through her lyrics, made her a wonderful choice for a collaboration and the result is this… Khaki Army Tank. Expect more from this project soon.

    It’s the start of the week but to ease the Monday Blues, here’s a slice of pure pop. I’ve been working with the brilliantly talented Cayte Webber on a whole stack of pop tracks over the past few months and here’s our latest offering, the rough, tough Claustrophobic. Pop Pop-ety Pop Pop Pop. Let me know what you think people and if anyone’s got Britney’s number, call her - and point her this way…
