Artist Biography

Classically trained, Michael is a vastly experienced composer, orchestrator and conductor who holds a Doctorate in composition (Leeds, UK) in addition to numerous Fellowship awards. His catalogue of chamber music is published globally and he has been fortunate to receive three Royal Premieres, in addition to several broadcasts on national radio and television.

In 2010, he orchestrated numerous tracks for the Columbia Artists US touring show Celtic Circle before becoming increasingly in demand for production music. In 2015 his track 'The Edge' won the ThinkSpace Trailer Competition; a score which was also nominated at the Short Sounds Film Festival in 2017.

2017 brought opportunities to score the dark drama 'Hookworm' (BFI premiere) and 'Beyond the Horizon' (RTS Nomination), in addition to numerous library placements on BBC and other primetime TV channels.

2018 saw Michael scoring numerous shorts including the sci-fi thriller 'Forward Fix' by Paternoster Productions. His library track 'Tundra' proved to be the winning entry in the Short Sounds Film Festival judged by Rupert Gregson-Williams.

2019 brought opportunities to serve as music editor on the indie feature 'Dead Fred', in addition to scoring 'Skullz', a children's feature both produced by TF Films. 2020 has begun by scoring the forthcoming feature 'Harvest of the Dead: Halloween Night'.

Artist Statement

Influenced by the likes of Olafur Arnalds and Johann Johannsson, Michael's preferred style is very much about orchestral and synth subtlety; those ethereal 'edge of audible' timbres which often add a disproportionate amount of value to the narrative and sub-text in thrillers and dramas.
