One week today is when it all changes.
It’s my move to London I’m talking about, I’ll be packing up and moving from sunny Scarborough (North Yorkshire) to London (Bounds Green to be precise). From here I’ll be starting serious freelance sound, music and web design work. I have a position at Iguana Studio in Brixton, here I’ll be doing studio tech, maintenance and production. I’ve also hopefully got some work lined up with another friend, advertising composer – Craig Botes, this will be freelance mixing and I’m going to be shadowing Mark Bradley at Village Productions (Dagenham), that one involves sound design and composing for animation.
On top of those I’ve now secured part time work for GoGen, this will be telesale-type work, working on behalf of charities, hopefully that’ll pay the rent allowing me to push forward with my real interests, music, sound design and web design.
Lastly, there’s a project brewing with a good friend of mine, Jake Hemming, this will be centred around providing primary school children access to more experimental methods of working with music. There’ll be much more info about that coming in the next few weeks.
I’m going to miss this place (Scarborough) though, the sea air, the beautiful surroundings and the friendly people, I know it’s going to be a far cry from London, but it’s just all swings and roundabouts.
