Loch Awe – I Will Drift Into 10,000 Streams / The Diamond King & Six Holy Mirrors [2012]

This is the last thing that Loch Awe will ever release. It was recorded in Chem19 studios with Jamie Savage, who was an absolute delight to work with. The days spent recording these tracks were some of the most fun I’ve ever had, and I’m so proud of the results. Just a shame we could never get our shit together and make more. Oh well.

The songs are free to download from: http://lochawe.bandcamp.com/album/i-will-drift-into-10000-streams-the-diamond-king-and-six-holy-mirrors

Negotiations. & LA MORENA – It’s Dinner Time In Fucking America [2011]

It's Dinner Time in Fucking America Cover Art

A collaborative EP with US slam poet LA MORENA. I did the music over the space of two or three months, but with long breaks in between. None of the tracks really took more than a few hours to write and record but I think it’s turned out pretty nice regardless. I hope you enjoy it.

The record is free to download from: http://negotiations.bandcamp.com/album/its-dinner-time-in-fucking-america

Negotiations. – Other People’s Memories; Preliminary Negotiations [2011]

Other People's Memories; Preliminary Negotiations Cover Art

A mixtape of songs I recorded between 2008 and 2010 which I feel lead up to the sort of music I’m making now as Negotiations. I sort of half-rap on here. It’s awful. Seriously. Please make sure I never do that again.

It also features a remix I did of an early slam by Makayla, with whom I recorded It’s Dinner Time In Fucking America.

You can get the mixtape from: http://negotiations.bandcamp.com/album/other-peoples-memories-preliminary-negotiations

Andrew Lindsay & The Coat Hooks – The Whittling [2011]

The Whittling Cover Art

I play guitar and sing backing vocals on this, the third release (or debut, depending on how you look at it) from my friend Andrew Lindsay. It’s really very good, you can stream it and/or buy it here: http://andrewlindsayandthecoathooks.bandcamp.com/

The record was released by my flatmate’s record label After the Hush, Records: http://www.facebook.com/pages/After-the-Hush-Records/150422195000467

We, the Plural – Music Loves You Too [2010]

Music Loves You Too Cover Art

These are the first songs I ever recorded in a studio.  It wasn’t a great experience overall, hence I haven’t rushed back, and I think it shows in the songs. Nevertheless, I quite like them and maybe you will too. Get it here: http://music.wetheplural.com/album/music-loves-you-too

On a slightly different note, the artwork was done by the fantastic Joni Langdale, whose stuff is here: http://joni-langdale.blogspot.com/

Loch Awe – Artificial Life from a Digital Sea [2010]

Artificial Life from a Digital Sea Cover Art

My first time recording with other people, and by far the most successful release I’ve been involved in to date. I had a great time working on this, and hopefully we should get some more recorded this summer. You can get it here: http://lochawe.bandcamp.com/

We, the Plural – Cheap Flights into the Mushroom Cloud [2009]

Cheap Flights into the Mushroom Cloud Cover Art

Looking back on this, it’s super rough, but at the time I really thought it was ace. OH WELL. You can get it here if you so choose:  http://music.wetheplural.com/album/cheap-flights-into-the-mushroom-cloud

Sweetverbs – Snowglobe [2009]

Snowglobe Cover Art

This is an album I recorded and released in August 2009. You can get it from: http://sweetverbs.bandcamp.com/album/snowglobe

It was almost entirely improvised at the time of recording and, as such, isn’t brilliant, but you might find something to enjoy nonetheless.
