Mostly Human Music

I’ve always loved science-fiction, so when I heard there was a competition to re-score a scene from one of my favourite HBO series, I knew I had to give it a shot.

Here is my version of a Westworld chase scene, featuring mostly beats and synths:

For 8 years (2012-2019), I was fortunate to compose the score for the hit dramatic series, O’ (TVA – Canada). Inspired from the start, I wrote over 1,400 cues that accompanied a wide range of moods and emotions. O’ featured a stellar cast, great directors, and a fantastic production and post-production team.

Here is a small sample of my dramatic music from the show:

My first contract, at the start of my career, was a documentary, By Icebreaker to the North Pole (Galafilm). Many years later, I have many fond memories of working on beautiful films and series in that genre. Here is my documentary music reel for this year:

This is the third in a series of pieces that make up Unaccompanied, a long electronic work that is a reflection of my feelings on the issue of detention centres for children.

Instruments used include: Moog Grandmother, Memorymoog, 0-Coast, Eurorack modules, Lindsay 1920 upright piano.

This track features a Waldorf Quantum, 1973 Synthi AKS, Roland’s TR-8S, the Rain Piano sampled instrument, and a 2011 Telecaster ’52 re-issue, all through an Analog Heat Mk2.

Every so often there comes a time for change, a time to make room for new instruments. And so, I must let go of a few good friends, lovely synths, each with a unique character.

I took a few pics before they leave, and share my musical explorations of them with you below:
