About
Born at a young age on 13/5/2000 in The Lake District, UK, I'm a freelance composer/producer/sound-designer
creating music and SFX for games and albums.
I also work with independent radio stations as a regular host, spinning smooth and laid-back tracks.
'60s - '90s jazz soul and blues, retro-synth records, funk, and new-wave regularly appear on my setlists.
