The documentary that I wrote the music soundtrack for, Evolution: The Grand Experiment, has just won 3 awards at the Visual Media Catalyst Conference held in St. Louis, Missouri.
The show picked up Crown Awards in three separate categories. The documentary won first place in “Best Youth Film”, first place in “Best Curriculum”, and second place in “Best Documentary over $50,000″.
New promo video clip for my dark atmospheric ambient space music Through The Ergosphere.
The track is a dark and slowly evolving seven minute atmospheric ambient soundscape set to a film of ethereal dark space visuals and other worldly imagery from the European Space Agency Hubble Telescope project.
Quietly dramatic, the music is ideal textural underscore for films and documentaries or simply for fans of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001, Brian Eno’s ambient music, Biosphere, Stars Of The Lid and other similar ambient artists and drones. Put it on headphones and drift away to dark and atmospheric sci-fi landscapes.

I’m starting work today scoring music for a new documentary project. Can’t say too much about it for the moment, suffice to say it looks like an interesting and well produced series -- lots of good footage for me to get stuck into so I’m excited about starting on it. After the work is completed I’ll hopefully be able to shed some more light on it and maybe link to a trailer, but until then, heads down and on with the composing…
Update (26/06/09): The documentary score is going really well -- one week into it now and got about a third of it done with lots of ideas for themes. I’ve got 3 weeks total to finish it so pretty much on target, hopefully. Will play my ideas to the producer and editor soon to get some feedback and meantime start moving things up a notch.
Update (10/07/09): Practically there now -- the producers are really pleased with the work I’ve done so far -- just have to finish off the last few pieces of the puzzle and I’m done. Been a pretty intense but thoroughly enjoyable few weeks!
Update (26/07/09): Post-production is now officially wrapped! The producers were extremely happy with the final music and after a successful screening to a test audience, the job is now finished. As soon as the product is officially available and I have their permission, I’ll share the details of the show and hopefully a trailer or some promo material.
Update (17/08/09): I can now post a preview of the show -- here’s a short clip from the documentary Evolution: The Grand Experiment featuring music I scored for the show:
