I have a deep fascination with the sound of the piano as well as in the creation of new sounds through the use of software instruments. Through my music, I seek to introduce a state of calm and well-being as well as excite and inspire through my experiments in sound design. W. H. Davis spoke of ‘standing and staring’. Something we do not do enough of these days. I would add listening to this. I look to create sonic textures that posses an intricate beauty and delicacy as they evolve. For me, the way music can hang in the air, it’s particles of sound in constant agitation around a theme or half-remembered thought is what interests me and is what I try to recreate using the instruments at my disposal.
Finally, the next Aqueous instalment is here. It’s taken the best part of two years, on and off and between other projects, to see the light of day. I am very pleased with this body of work - this comes from deep inside me and is a very personal statement of my art.
