Hi, I'm James. I'm terrible at press release but have a penchant for electronic music (with classical elements).

Some of my music has found it's way onto the stage for experimental dance troupes, to the far away shores of the US in CD and vinyl form and some to the moving image (HBO's 6ft Under). I've made an appearance on compilations alongside film composer and ex Chili Pepper Cliff Martinez, FSOL, Coldcut, Nightmares on Wax and RJD2 and remixed for contemporary artists such as Charles Webster.

Also, and more to the point, I make music and sound effects for games where my sounds are most content being. I've just finished the sound and music for Mutant Storm Empire on the XBox 360 and had the following nice words conveyed:

"Great soundtrack, super cool and weird sound effects, totally fitting the action and taking the game up a notch."

"very tasty update on the old Mutant Storm Reloaded, gotta say the audio is a real stand out for me. Great tactile feel given to the action, shots hitting glass and thumping into the 'beasties'."

"Explosions in the game sound great, as do the other myriad of sound effects."

"Menu music in this game is f*****g sick"

Super.

Here's a selection of some of my music:

And here're some sounds (this needs to be updated!)

I'm looking for my next project and would be most interested to hear from anyone who thinks I can do their baby justice! I don't charge an arm or a leg and am happy to work on a project of any size.

Thank you for taking the time out to read this unsolicited nonsense.
