Hi, welcome to my Natural History page.

I have been scoring Natural History films for over twenty years, including winning an Emmy in 2014.

For me this is an exciting time as musically anything is possible in Natural History films .

I'm equally comfortable writing for children, teenagers and adults and am especially interested in writing for the younger audience.

I have a very successful career scoring animation so feel free to hop over to my children's/animation page.

January 2024 I scored ‘My Otter Diary’ for Oxford Scientific Films, directed by Sughandhi Gadadhar and Raghunath Belur, it was shortlisted for ‘Best Music’ at the 2025 Wildscreen Summit for best music.

Being realistic about the current state of Natural History commissions and budgets I have chosen to focus on sample based music augmented with a handful of musicians.

Hopefully you can see from this music what I can do and given the opportunity to work with a full orchestra that I can do that as well.

But I'm also equally interested in alternative approaches to scoring natural history , check out 'City of the Army Ants' , 'Battle of the Flowers' or 'penguin walk' as something more left field targeted at a younger audience.
