As a dad the only thing better than seeing my daughter’s eyes light up when I get the decorations down from the loft, is seeing how clutter-free the house looks when I put them back.
Hot take: @NandosUK interior design is really great and I’d happily have my house designed by them.
Interested in reading words that I wrote (you're reading these right now aren't you?)? Read more of them if you like!

Having kids is hard. Some days can be really tough. But then, just once in a while…
…they leave like half a kids pizza at Pizza Express which is absolutely getting eating by me.
And everything feels with it. ♥️
Its so often this album I turn to, and somehow it always helps a little.

Spare a thought for the BBC website team today - in on a Sunday, trying to figure out where on earth everything should go on the page.
Composers! This extraordinary thread by the wonderful @JonOpstad is so much better than any online course in music to picture.
Grab a coffee and take your time. The insight that Jon provides here is remarkable. There’s so much to this deeply original, multi-faceted score.
BODIES on @netflix was a very interesting project to compose the score for.
For a while I've wanted to put together a thread with some details on the approach to the music.
It's taken me a while to get round to this (busy composing) but for those interested here we go...🧵

As a music supervisor, I am making a public pledge to all musicians, publishers, artists & labels that I will NEVER actively sync AI generated music. There are WAY too many real talented artists out there who deserve an opportunity! Who of my fellow sync community pledge with me?

I did a lecture back at my old Uni last week on "How to be a composer in an AI world" and thought I'd write up some of my notes as a thread. But when I looked at tools to help get all your tweets in a row, they very much seemed to want to write the thread themselves, using AI ...
Not a big deal for some, but it’s exciting to see one of the @OnScore_ reels go over 1k for the first time on Instagram.
Small steps..!
