Drumworks (In Collaboration with Adrian Croom)
I’m pleased to announce that I have recently started an ongoing writing collaboration with Adrian Croom who hails from Austin, Texas. We are currently a few tracks into our first project which is focused around hybrid orchestral music cues aimed at trailer and television…
Artist: Clare Estelle - Sacred Night
Clare Estelle strikes again with her awesome new sensual gothic love song “Sacred Night”. The track is another successful collaboration between Clare Estelle and Steve Hope-Wynne. As before with Clare’s track “Somehow”, Mike was asked to assist in dealing with final Pro Tools session to take the track through the final mix and master.
The track sounds stunning and in awe when viewing the cover artwork! The track is available to buy and stream worldwide via this link. Until next time, do keep your eyes peeled for Clare’s latest news and releases on her website.
Artist: Clare Estelle - Somehow
During the final months of 2017, Mike was contacted by his friend and colleague Steve Hope-Wynne to see if he would consider getting involved in the production of Clare Estelle's collaborative track "Somehow", and if he would contribute some musical elements of his own.
The pair had been working together and experimenting and bouncing ideas off each other for a while; Clare had composed the music and written lyrics alongside performing piano, acoustic guitar and some percussion. Through various collaborations, Clare then sourced Irish whistle (Sam Piper), drums (Stuart Hemphill) and bass guitar (Phil Smith) with Steve adding electric guitars and a variety of his own vocal section recordings.

Trailer: Cutting Room
I recently worked alongside my friend and colleague Emily Jackson to produce the score for Silver Lining Pictures upcoming feature film, Cutting Room, check out results below! I've always loved the idea of collaboration which I guess is a plus point given the crazy deadlines we are gives as composers, It's always interesting to see where something goes when two minds work together.
