I plan to combine some of the ideas and works I’ve been thinking about/ working on in both my sound for screen classes and my studio praxis classes. Recently, I have explored different synthesisers, also the practise of improvisation. Both explorations, I plan to interweave into the re scoring of a scene from ‘2001: a… Continue reading Specialisation proposal: ‘Beyond the infinite’ rescore

Volga keys experimentation
I recently loaned out a volva keys synth recently, and had some interesting experimentations with it after watching some tutorials on how to use it. I found that it gave out some really nice sounds for both leads and basslines, I created a track trying out some of the different kinds of sounds I could… Continue reading Volga keys experimentation
sound for screen clip choice
I think I will use this scene from 2001, as there isn’t much dialogue and its a scene with a lot of mental process for the protagonist that I can draw out in the score. I have decided to combine my two specialisation options of studio praxis and sound for screen. For this piece I… Continue reading sound for screen clip choice
field recording experimentations
During last weeks sound for screen class, we went out in pairs to collect some field recordings, which was the first time I had done so with a set intention. The intention behind this, was to re score a clip from the movie ‘We need to talk about Kevin’. Me and my partner Inyake spoke… Continue reading field recording experimentations
sound for screen experimentations
In response to the assignment to re score a clip from a movie, I decided to try rescoring a video I had already made myself. I probably won’t use this for the assignment as I think the objective is more to practice scoring to an existing piece of media of someone else’s creation as this… Continue reading sound for screen experimentations
Sound for screen assignment ideas
My initial idea when briefed with the assignment for the sound for screen unit (to score a 3-4 minute movie clip) was the scene in the film ‘kidulthood’, when the protagonist has just had an intense experience with his uncle and is then walking around London at night a bit disorientated and lost (also in… Continue reading Sound for screen assignment ideas
Collaborative improvisations w/ Noury Andre
This is a project I recently started with a friend and musical collaborator of mine (who goes by the name ‘Noury Andre’). The first two tracks in the playlist are an ep, which we have yet to name. It was created by recording the room whilst we improvised for around half an hour switching between… Continue reading Collaborative improvisations w/ Noury Andre
Collaborative improvisations w/ Tony Bontana
A friend and musical collaborator of mine (who goes by the name Tony Bontana) was in London for a weekend, and we worked on some music. The first track is with Tony playing the guitar and me producing the session (recording, arranging, mixing), as well as playing some keys and other sounds such as strings… Continue reading Collaborative improvisations w/ Tony Bontana
Sampling works
This is a project of mine I made using a sample from Herbie Hancock’s version of Sting’s track ‘Sister Moon’ that was made with Sting and other instrumentalists as part of his project called ‘Possibilities’, I manipulated the sample to fit the beat for me to add drums how I wanted, once I had the… Continue reading Sampling works
Sound explorations
This is a piece I made using an old keyboard I had going into my audio interface from the phones out, then using some different plugins and modulations to create some different sounds, and then automating a delay/ reverb/ effects plugin I had on the keys track to create some interesting synth type sounds. I… Continue reading Sound explorations
