Had a super creative day yesterday with the rather talented @michaelcfox & @candysaysben working on writing and recording a new track from scratch. (They did allow me to play the drums, which was very kind of them. I’m sure that I️ won’t make the cut but I️ did enjoy myself very much!). I’m rather enjoying these creative sessions. It’s great to work with talented people. And Michael has an extraordinary voice. I’m excited for you to hear it all one day. Oh! And the song is going KICK!!! #songwriting #prodcution #explore #music #life #recording #humans #watching #theworld
Yesterday I ended up at The Guardian HQ with the gorgeous and hugely talented @ladyhaja talking to her about how great the @ywmpoxford project is. She totally wants a t-shirt. Have you got yours?! Check out [link] for more info.
Just a chilled moment captured. Working on another new song. I’m just gonna put all of these songs in a bag. Can’t wait to press record. Thanks again to all those heart breakers and bleak slow pop peeps who turned up to our show at the O2 @ritualunionoxford this weekend. Unexpected and extremely heart warming. Cold gloomy days right now. #love #music #writing #songwriting #oxford #creative #piano #moment #gloomy #composer #life #nature
We don’t play live so much but occasionally we do. Why not have a message? Why not think about why we do what we do? Onstage at @o2academyoxford 6:15. Ace bands playing all day. We’re kinda on a 90s comedown shoegaze vibe tonight. Love y’all. @ritualunionoxford #oxford #bands #life #live #electro #bang #drum #duo #doit #festival
Remembering how to sing “I wanna see you smile, from when you’re worn out with love, can we know the words, for how it is that we feel? For what it’s worth...”. Hardly a pumper, but I’m still feeling the feelin. #love #respect #live #ritualunion #band #duo #oxford #composer
Sometimes @bethorton just creeps into your life... might have to play this on Saturday @ritualunionoxford #bloodredriver #live #music #band #oxford #90s #guitar #centralreservation
Still working our songs out. Turns out @candysaysben has created an orchestra to be the intro for #WhatItsWorth. I’m totally endorsing this. Love it. #mellotron #juno #feet #bass #pedals #midi #life #love #nature #band #oxford Have you got your ticket for @ritualunionoxford yet? Go grab. A day of bands all playing their hearts out on the Cowley Road.
Working it out. New song as always. I rarely like to play the same song twice. The best feeling is the writing and exploration. #songwriting #composing #ritualunion #band #oxford
Always working on new music. One day I will record it all.. preparing music for @ritualunionoxford Festival on 21st October. I never like to play the same show twice. Figuring it out on the piano before I take it to the rig and work on it with @candysaysben #newsong #electro #piano #create #evolve #live #life #oxford #band #ritualunion
Apologies for not having played live for a while. We've had other things going on in life but we are here and starting to think about our show @ritualunionoxford Festival on the 21st October. We can't wait to play our songs and start feeling all emosh again. Love for music, art, life. Starting the warm-up friends. #love #life #music #passion #live #band #oxford #ritualunion #production #film
It isn't often that you get to work with an artist that you really admire. Someone who writes great songs, has wonderfully poetic lyrics and has a voice that will melt people's hearts. Thanks for trusting us @michaelcfox with your art. Your track is sounding immense and we're about to head into the studio to finish it off. #production #music #film #studio #oxford #tape #songs
It doesn't look like much but it has a v cool vibe and beat going - looking forward to playing this one live. When the songs come, they certainly start letting themselves be known. Or should I say, "when I bother turning up..." . #creative #songwriting #band #oxford #live #studio
You need to go away to come back. New song written. Done. Dusted. Time to RECORD. #love #life #song #writer #composer #oxford #band #studio #spinneywood
It's amazing to know what difference a microphone makes. Awesome fun this morning testing out some sounds. Brings the geek out in me. #microphones #testing #making #music #recording #studio #love #life #nature #oxford #composition #score
Pretty darn excited about this record. Congratulations @williejhealey @mikegpmonaghan @harrydeaconbass et al., you guys are ace. Buy this record people...#oxford #music #band #ace #love #life
We might start making some music again once we finish this holiday... We're still in France, feeling inspired... especially by the green beans :) #greenbeans #france #holiday #music #life #nature #love #make
