This month This month is quiet as I will head off to New York on holiday and prepare for concerts in September – see ‘coming up’ below. Last month Well, last month was a write-off. I got tonsillitis and was laid low for two weeks, then went on a family holiday. The result is that I must delay the planned release of Switchback, which I had promised to put out this month. Luckily, I was better just in time for an exciting recording session with the London Symphony Orchestra! I’ll announce more about this project next year; I’ve got to keep it under wraps for now. Watching the LSO recording with my friends Amy and Fraz! Me at Colourscape in 2019, shortly after my accident. ![]() Coming up I have a very exciting gig on September 21st. I’ll be debuting my Hyasynth solo set at Colourscape, a music festival on Clapham Common inside an inflatable art venue. I’ve been going to Colourscape since childhood, so this concert is particularly meaningful for me. My piece will explore the shifting sonic colours that arise from the combination of tones on the instrument. I’ll post more about it in the build-up to the festival, so do follow me on Instagram to see more of that. The concert will happen multiple times between 11am and 4pm. Tickets are £12 for adults and £6 for children. Ideas This is a new section! From time to time, I’ll share some of the ideas I’m chewing through. I’ve also taken some time to think about marble. I’m caught by the way that the subtle patterns in marble flow over its surface and how architects manipulate these through techniques like book matching. This led me to experiment with traditional paper marbling with my partner and my friend Eva. I remain fascinated by the combinations of chaos and pattern, control and abandon, organic and chemical in these materials, and I will explore these ideas in my music. Our first attempts at marbling.
