About

Bespoke Music for Storytelling

Multi-instrumentalist composer making music for film, television, theatre, installations, and other media.  

Dan’s wide-ranging fascination with music across place and time lends variety and depth to a personal style fostered through many years of practice, collaboration, study, and love of the craft.

Previous projects include: feature-length films, short films, theatre productions, TV, adverts, art installations, live performances and studio work with bands, ensembles and soloists across various genres; new music for Ensemble 10/10 and the world-class players of the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra; composition and coordination for live, film score performances-to-picture; and music and soundscape production for renowned gallery space, FACT Liverpool.

Other Skills, Experience & Qualifications

  • Ph.D. in Music Composition (funded by the Arts & Humanities Research Council) with a focus on the creative unity between Music and Sound Design for audiovisual media.

  • University teaching and lecturing in composition, film music, and music production at the University of Liverpool.

  • Professional, working knowledge of Logic Pro, and industry-standard recording, mixing and mastering techniques and hardware, as well as Pro Tools and Final Cut Pro.

  • Music notation and notation software.

  • Live, MIDI and hybrid music production with a studio containing some of the very best, state-of-the-art, equipment and software.

I have loved, studied and made music since early childhood. For me, the creative process really comes to life in collaboration with others. I enjoy the specialist skill of composing in collaboration with other media to create something unified and greater than the sum of its parts. At their best, I feel that music and storytelling are social undertakings, which blend the crafts and visions of different creators.
