A lovely guy called Brett has been in contact about using some of my music in a documentary he has made on the emerging skateboarding scene in Egypt.
He currently has a kickstarter campaign going to raise money for this – have a peek at the trailer below and do head over here to see more – http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1120573517/slipping-skates-impact-on-egypt

I have had my music on the magnatune website for over a year now and they have been awesome, handling all of my music licensing stuff and generally being the most ‘on it’ and accountable crew I work with.
You can hear loads of music on their site which you might not find elsewhere – it is all curated by one guy called John who has great and eclectic taste!
They are currently in the business of starting a website to provide music for businesses and restaurants called moodmixes which you should check out too.
I had a lovely day yesterday collaborating with Sam Lee on a musical commission for ‘A Smaller Sound, A Bigger Crowd: A Film Installation and Performance by Ian Giles telling the story of The Docklands Bell’
We are both going to be floating about the Thames a week on friday playing the song we wrote to Ian’s lyrics, with Sam singing and me playing some appalachian dulcimer – see here for more info – http://www.floatingcinema.info/events/#events-38
