  2. Helen Arney - STORYCOLLIDER

    Something I wrote for Storycollider, the science storytelling night. It's the story of recording my first piece for BBC TV as a science presenter, on the UK's tallest rollercoaster.

  3. Ultimate Pop Song

    Written for Festival of the Spoken Nerd podcast "POP!" in January 2013. It's rhythmically shoddy but I'm sure you understand what I'm trying to do with it... http://festivalofthespokennerd.com/podcast For more songs and things, go to http://helenarney.bandcamp.com

    Finally, I have got around to recording the song I wrote for Storytellers Club back in March. Hosted by the brilliant Sarah Bennetto, it's one of the best regular comedy events of all time, monthly at the Pleasance in Islington, every August at the Edinburgh Fringe and at various musical…

  9. Festival of the Spoken Nerd "Extra Time For Questions" podcast theme

    We've just started a podcast of our sensational sell-out science/comedy show, Festival of the Spoken Nerd. It has bits of the live show mixed with extra bits recorded in the studio with me, Matt Parker and Steve Mould - and - of course - extra time for the questions we didn't get time to answer...

  10. Precious Little Podcast theme tune

    I've just re-recorded this today as the original was proper dodgy... It's an ickle jingle for Michael Legge & James Hingley's "Precious Little Podcast", available here: preciouslittlepodcast.co.uk You can follow them on Twitter @PLPod

  11. Collins & Legge BBC 6 Music jingle

    Andrew asked on Twitter for people to send over jingles for his early 2010 BBC 6 Music show - which was usually with Richard Herring but for a couple of weeks was co-hosted with Michael Legge. I've written jingles for Michael before (see Precious Little Podcast jingle) and I met Andrew in…

  12. Some Kind Of Explanation - complete set of jingles

    I wrote some jingles for a podcast called "Listen & Often" which is based on a bi-monthly (that means once every 2 months, right?) live show called Tall Tales at the Good Ship in Kilburn. It is verifiably the best gig in the world. The podcast is on iTunes, hosted by Robbie Hudson and Toby…

  13. Red House Presents James Campbell - final theme tune

    The _actual_ theme tune that got used by Red House for their internet pilot of James Campbell's Book Show! With lots of help from Olly the Octopus, of Bronze Medallists fame. http://ollyoctopus.com James lives here on the internet: http://thejamescampbell.com - - - Helen Arney Comedian, singer,...

  14. James Campbell Show - theme song

    This a song that definitely never got used for the thing it was written for... I wrote it with James Campbell for the internet pilot of his book show for kids, but it wasn't what they wanted. Ah well! I still like it... James' lyrics are brilliantly silly and "comfy comfy" is a tiny piece of...

  15. Dog In A Bag - Balconettes Demo

    A demo for my comedy girlband, The Balconettes, with a song called "Dog In A Bag" There more about me, the fabulous Rachel Parris and The Balconettes here: http://thebalconettes.com - - - Helen Arney Comedian, singer, songwriter, geek http://helenarney.com

  16. Michael Is A Robot - for Bec Hill's little brother

    "Michael is a Robot" - a song written with Bec Hill (and featuring her dude rappingness) for her brother's birthday. It genuinely uses an actual casio keyboard drum beat, and a couple of instrument noises from the same heap of junk / classic budget synth, however you want to hear it. There's an...

  17. Stand Up Fall Over - theme tune

    A theme tune for the pilot of a stand-up show for kids, which has never been used! It's not quite finished (the instruments are still very MIDI and not real enough) but it was a useful thing to do to find out how my audio interface actually works. Features the vocal talents, and tech support, of...

  18. Bumsong - for a kids sketch show that never happened

    I wrote this in early 2009 for a kids sketch show with Tiernan Douieb, Stan Stanley and Lauren Shearing that never actually happened. Thanks are due to Tiernan Douieb for the final lines about the perils of not having a bum. I think it was the first multi-track recording I made on my own since I...

  19. I went to a Rock Festival - by BandHandA

    New Year New YeArt 2007 A setting of David Shrigley's poem about going to a rock festival, co-written and performed by Helen Arney, Amy Peace and Ben Peace. Edited by Helen.
