Raised in a musical family, encouraged from an early age to get involved in singing, piano, theory studies, choral work and eventually double bass in the County of Avon Schools Orchestra. Continued to enjoy keyboard performance, and after studying maths at university in Southampton, began a two-decade spare-time career playing in bands.
Now restless to leave software engineering and chomping at the bit to write music for film.

Well I think we all had an excellent time together.
I like your music, seems you have alot of variation, definitely will check back regularly.
"I like experimenting when playing my piano, sometimes trying out ideas based on mathematical concepts. Do you ever use that kind of approach?" I often use mathematical concepts - simple ones or more complicated concepts (in my wind quintet "Dämmerung" I worked with Fibonacci sequences and prime numbers). Or even more simple I remove every second or third or fourth note out of a twelve-tone scale (or twentythree-tone scales) to get a mode to work with. I once tried to write fractal music, using a fractal note generator I found in the internet, but I didn't like the result.
I had a listen to your music yesterday and I enjoyed it very much. I will come back and comment more detailed on your work.
Sorry for late reply? Talk to you later bro!

Thanks so much for your kind words!
Yes indeed I think that we all have many projects waiting for us in our hard disks....but isn´t it just great to have that mine ready to be discovered once in a while, just waiting for you?
I also do bellydancing, in fact Gomyra was written for my girls, it´s dedicated to them, we have such good times together!
I have also been listening to your work in Reverbnation, I very much liked Snow Pilgrim and Euphoria, found them quite original, love the percussion in Snow Pilgrim. I also admire the sound of your voices! very nice sound indeed!
Very nice work Mike, very inspiring!
Thanks again for your comment, hope you have a fantastic day!
Best

Omnisphere is great. Gotta spend a few days getting to know it again.
Glad to hear you are busy. Don't worry - the money WILL come!
I know what you mean about the giggly thing. Cool isn't it? ;-)
Give me a shout when you get it and we can swap tricks :-)
