INCOMING
Here you'll find updates on new releases & upcoming events.
THE WHO
The Who - Live At The Oval - Now available for pre-order.
I mixed this using the long lost (but now found) original 1" 8Tk analogue master tapes and will be available in both stereo and Dolby Atmos. Check out the amazing 5 stars out of 5 star review in this month's MOJO magazine - hit that pre order button...you know it makes sense!
ROBIN TROWER
Robin Trower - For Earth Below
I recently remixed Robin Trower's 'For Earth Below', the iconic follow up to Robins' legendary 'Bridge Of Sighs'. The album has since gone to number 1 in the US Billboard Blues Album Charts! Go buy a copy, its essential listening!
MICHAEL KIWANUKA
I've loved Michael Kiwanuka's music since I first heard his debut album 'Home Again'. So it was an honour to be asked to mix his new album 'Small Changes' in Dolby Atmos & Spatial Audio. The album is absoulutey phenominal! A couple of singles from th album are currently available on all of the usual DSP's and the full album is released in mid November, go check it out, you'll love it!
THIN LIZZY
I recently produced and mixed in both stereo and Dolby Atmos the Thin Lizzy Acoustic Sessions album. This album consists of original and previously unreleased versions of classic Decca era Thin Lizzy songs with the added bonus of some new guitar work which we recorded in Belfast with founding guitarist, Eric Bell. Released on CD, Vinyl and Blu Ray in January 2025 this is really something special. Go pre order a copy, you know if makes sense.
KIASMOS
KIASMOS II is the second album from superduo Ólafur Arnalds and Janus Rasmussen. If you've never heard of Kiasmos then imagine if you will, combining Aphex Twins' Ambient Works with classic era Orbital and you're still not close...this is an absolutely amazing album. I was asked to mix this future classic in Dolby Atmos - go check it out!
QUADROPHENIA
ICYMI - Go check out the feature on The Who's website where I briefly talk about mixing Quadrophenia in Dolby Atmos/Spatial Audio!
CHARLIE WATTS
It was an absolute honour to mix some of the tracks on the Charlie Watts Anthology.
Out Now!
Go check it out, it’s magnificent!
GABRIELS
Angels & Queens - arguably the best album of the year and possibly the best band I’ve heard in years! If you haven’t checked out Gabriels then you really need to hit them up now! Imagine (if you will) combining Cab Calloway, Tom Waits (Rain Dogs era) & Curtis Mayfield and you’re still not close, This, their debut album is epic, dark, ethereal, uplifting and somewhat beautiful. I mixed this incredible album in Dolby Atmos / Spatial Audio and it sounds immense! Utterly superb album!
IMMERSIVE Q&A
I recently did an interview with Jonathan from immersivemusicalbum.com where we discussed all things ATMOS. Check it out here
