Memories of gone with the wind
I loved the movie, Gone with the wind as a child. The music was written by Max Steiner. Thank you Max, for the inspiration and a great tune which has inspired me pretty much my whole life.

Tribute to my dog, Smog
I wrote this after my dog, Smoggy, a miniature Schnauser, drowned. I wanted to try and capture those last moments as he was in the water, and transform that fearful experience into something beautiful and profound, ameliorating the sadness and sending him to another manifestation in as pure and...

JAMIE'S THEME
A lullaby I wrote for my great niece. It is gentle and soothing and uplifting with a sweet melody flowing throughout, first in piano, then taken up by the clarinet, flute and strings, weaving in and around each other, I picture a beautiful mother in a long flowing dress with a baby in her arms.

This is an arrangement of Fly me to the moon. It is somewhat jazzy, somewhat classical.I used orchestration with Logic Pro.

Gnuvibes

When will things change?
I began this track at the beginning of the first lockdown in March 2020 thinking this would be the beginning of something new in the world- a better world? I was naive enough to think that, hopeful that things would change- wealth would be more evenly spread, the poor would get better treatment...

Terrace Bay
This is one of the first tracks I ever made using Mixcraft. I love Mixcraft- it is so intuitive, and I am able to express my moods well with it. This piece was conceived in a remote part of Namibia called Terrace Bay which is 100 K's from any inhabitation! We had a magic time there with the…

A New African Dawn
Some African inspired kalimba's mixed with classical orchestral strings and a smooth flowing rhythm suggest sunrise over a great river, welcoming a new time of peace and harmony.

A different end
Walking that same old bend wanting a different end to all the fear and pain that life can bring,' That's not the way.

A walk in a wet forest at Christmas time in Hogsback
A walk in a wet forest at Christmas time in Hogsback. Listen to the rain dripping gently from the trees, the sound of birds and frogs and the Christmas beetles.
-
Where is the rain
I couldnt think of a title. I wanted a mellow, lazy feeling with a full-bodied sound, puntuated by flutes (birdsong) and with the promise of rain in the tinkling harp and ice rain synth sounds. Yes, it is all synthesised sound except the piano, but that is all I have to work with - Cubase and...

Anthem
A Happy New Year wish for South Africa. A new nation rising from the old. Peace, love and prosperity for all!

South African odyssey
This is a short musical history of South Africa. At first just the indigenous sounds of the Kalimba and birds, then the English horn announces the arrival of the colonials, then the South African parliament announces its arrival with trumpets and horn-blowing, then the last part is a combination…

The Search
I designed this track with a movie in mind- a search is out for criminal elements. Helicopters comb the area. They are found, caught and jailed for life in the end!!
-
Holiday chilling
I used Alesis midi on this- piano was the main inspiration. I wanted to get the laid-back jazzy feeling of Christmas summer holidays with cocktails by the pool or a beer in hand round the braai- Island style. There is a little hint of something oriental about halfway through- perhaps floating…

The first signs of winter
A track that I made with Mixcraft and downloaded loops from Soundbible. I used some of the tracks I had made in "Mellow days" but added rainfall and cricket sounds for the onset of winter.
