Welcome to this month’s episode of Soundscapes Radio. This episode is based around the idea of generative music. Basically setting a selection of 'rules' and allowing Ableton Live to play itself.

Welcome to this month’s episode of Soundscapes Radio. This episode starts on a relatively positive note with After the Rain which has a more positive and optimistic sound than recent installments of Soundscapes Radio.

This episode further develops the style I've been working on in recent episodes. Plenty of orchestral swells and an exceptionally recorded felt piano all make its way into these 36 minutes.

How does it sound if you have a whole orchestra playing the same note? In the first track of this month's episode, Gossamer, I wanted to see what that might sound like.

Recently I started delving into the world of software instruments from Spitfire Audio and came across quite a few new instruments to use when composing pieces for Soundscapes Radio.

In this episode I really wanted to push the boundaries and find out how much space and atmosphere I can create with my music.

This episode was born out of the reflective pause that everyone has found themselves in during this Coronavirus crisis.

In this episode I wanted to take the listener on a journey through moments of beauty and solitude.

In this episode I pushed myself to create a 30-minute piece with a single theme/motif.

In this episode I drew heavy inspiration from a trip I took to Kyoto in early August. During my time there I visited the home of late artist Kurosaki Akira in Keihoku, in the mountains north of Kyoto and was deeply moved by seeing his studio; untouched since his death.
