In this video, I take you through a few works in progress, and a number of tracks that I’ve started but never finished over the years. I show you how they’ve been pieced together in FLStudio, and share with you my thoughts and feelings regarding each track.

An inside look at ‘Whisperlude’, my remix of ‘A Little Princess’ directed by Alfonso Cuaron in 1995. In this video, I take you through the individual sounds and sections that make up the track in FLStudio, and share with you my experiences in composing it.

An inside look at ‘Bangarang’, my remix of Spielberg’s ‘Hook’. In this video, I take you through the individual sounds and sections that make up the track in FLStudio, and share with you my experiences in composing it.

Video for my track ‘Upular’, composed using chords, bass notes and vocal samples from the Disney Pixar film ‘Up’. The track also features a small number of percussion samples, including an obvious kick drum, crash cymbals and hi-hats.

‘Upular’ is my first ever remix of a Pixar film. The release of ‘Upular’ also marked the unsettling deactivation of ‘Alice’, ‘Expialdicious’ and ‘White Magic’, which later resurfaced upon the closing of my contract with Disney. Boy was that a swell moment.

Video for my track ‘SplurgenShitter’, shot over the course of a weekend. ’Splurgenshitter’ was shot south of Perth WA on the outskirts of Mandurah, using a Sony XDCAM EX1. The track features vocal samples of Stewie from Family Guy, Dot from ‘Around The World With Dot’, and Clint Eastwood from ‘Paint Your Wagon’. Why Darth Vader? Why anything?

Composed entirely of small sounds recorded from ‘The Secret Garden’, ‘Mary’s Magic’ is probably my first real ambient track. Brings back a lot of good memories, this one. I remember rushing to get it done in time for the birthday of someone very special to me!

Video for my track ‘Alohomora’, made using sounds recorded from the film ‘Harry Potter And The Sorcerer’s Stone’. I originally sought out to make this video using the Blu-Ray, but my knowledge just wasn’t sufficient at the time.

Video for my track ‘Scrumdiddlyumptious’. The track is composed of a sine wave bass, original percussion sequences, and sounds recorded from the candy man scene in ‘Willy Wonka And The Chocolate
Factory’. ‘Scrumdiddlyumptious’ is the first video I uploaded in 720p, and editing such high resolution content was most cumbersome at the time.

Video for my track ‘Bangarang’. This piece is composed of sounds from the Spielberg classic film ‘Hook’, a sine wave bass, and a few cymbals for extra spice!

‘Bangarang’ is so far my only video ever to be removed from YouTube.  On the 10th of September 2009, Sony Pictures Entertainment filed a notice to YouTube claiming that ‘Bangarang’ is an infringement of copyright. Many folks responded to this with much criticism, posting numerous complaints to my YouTube page and uploading several copies of the video to their accounts. I was quick to file a counter notice to YouTube, and wrote an article explaining why I believe their claim was false.

Shortly after filing the claim, ‘Bangarang’ was reactivated on YouTube and remains live to this day.
