Been away from music for a little bit but that will change in 2026. Excited that this came today in the mail. I have always loved this soundtrack. Can’t wait to study it. #soundtrack #score

Bringing you the second instalment of Songcards Spotlight featuring the brilliant @pocketlint.bsky.social songcards.io/blog/spotlig...

Just finished Johnny Marr's autobiography. Two cool things I didn't know - when he went to NY to sign The Smiths to Sire Records, the label let him buy a Gibson 355. He took it back to the hotel and promptly wrote Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now and Girl Afraid. And later he became a marathoner!

You’ve heard of retail therapy, well why not try some “Retail Reverie” instead. If you fancy a copy of the @john-serrano.bsky.social & yours truly’s 7” inch vinyl single then don’t hang about. Down to 10 now. andrewhartshorn.bandcamp.com/album/retail...

Exciting news for today: I’m launching a kickstarter to help fund the creation of ‘Acoustic East Coast’, a show that will be produced on PEI this August. If you’re able to help us financially, I really appreciate it - if you’re not, perhaps share the link? 🙏 www.kickstarter.com/projects/nwc...

If you’re a new follower of the label pls check out our recent releases from @tonaldrift.com @the18thmusician.bsky.social @musicofsound.bsky.social @john-serrano.bsky.social @purplerhapsodyx.bsky.social @ageofinfernal.bsky.social @voltagepoetry.bsky.social monochromemotif.bandcamp.com/music

Definitely check out this album by @pocketlint.bsky.social! I recently picked it up on Bandcamp and I'm really enjoying it.

Another beautiful release from the always brilliant @hartshornmusic.bsky.social By @the18thmusician.bsky.social If you like concepts expanded into orchestral moments and beautiful classical guitar. This is for you #newmusic #orchestral

Curious whether current political events in America are inspiring (à la Shostakovich) or suppressing your musical creativity at the moment.

I thought I would try scoring the short film 'Spring' from The Cue Tube's 2021 score relief competition #scorerelief2021. Created exclusively using products from Orchestral Tools. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD_8...

Have you seen our great value digital subscription? 35 back catalogue & exclusive releases to download plus all new releases for the next 12 mths for only £25. CD option also available. monochromemotif.bandcamp.com/subscribe

#NowPlaying A great orchestral album by @the18thmusician.bsky.social the18thmusician.bandcamp.com/album/dream-...

Going to try these strings out for the first time. #classicalguitar #knobloch

After recently finishing Alex Van Halen's book Brothers, I have been revisiting Van Halen's music. Never close to my favorite, but I really liked 1984 and 5150 as a kid. Here are my top 5 VH songs: 1) Panama 2) Jump 3) 5150 4) Little Guitars 5) I'll Wait

At Bill’s Bar & Burgers in NY waiting for the ball to drop and they play Ask Me Jon, a sort-of-deep cut from The Ocean Blue’s first album. Faith in humanity restored. #theoceanblue

Thank you very much for the positive feedback on my first full-length album. A huge thanks to @hartshornmusic.bsky.social. Please check out the other fantastic artists on that label. The nice thing about finishing a project is figuring out the next one! the18thmusician.bandcamp.com/album/dream-...

My daughters love The Lord of the Rings. I just found out that they are getting me this book for Christmas. I never really saw the movies, or listened to the score, so I am really looking forward to studying the score without any feelings of the film influencing it. #soundtrack

You have no idea how happy this video makes me. "Good ideas don't go out of fashion, they just get reapplied." Steve Reich is an American treasure. @booseyandhawkes.bsky.social #stevereich youtu.be/PelWlc8j00A?...

Listened to this a few times since release. Took the time to put the CD on, get comfortable, close my eyes, and just listen. Absolutely amazing with so many things coming to the fore when listening with no distractions. Great job @the18thmusician.bsky.social 🙌🫶

We have been going to a local Christmas choir concert for the last few years, and they always sing This Christmastide by Donald Fraser. No matter how many times I hear it, at the very end there is a haunting Bm chord with a 9-8 suspension. That C# gets me every time.

OUT NOW The first full length album from the amazing @the18thmusician.bsky.social on CD, download & streaming. Orchestral plus classical guitar, with a bit of Glass, Reich thrown in. Check it out. the18thmusician.bandcamp.com/album/dream-...

I am excited for my first Bandcamp listening party on Friday! Looking forward to seeing you there if you can make it. the18thmusician.bandcamp.com/merch/dream-...

Looks like the sale update price for Komplete 15 from Native Instruments is double the price of previous years. Some nice additions but not worth an update from 14 for me.

If you’re a fan of classical guitar combined with Orchestral then this is for you, pre sale live now plus don’t forget to RSVP for the listening party on Fri Dec 6th at 18:00 GMT. It’s an amazing piece of work. @the18thmusician.bsky.social the18thmusician.bandcamp.com/album/dream-...

Anyone tried these strings? I just put a set on my Kenny Hill and still trying to adjust to them. No sqeaking is great but they are a little dull compared to my usual Savarez 540R with carbon trebles. #classicalguitar

Been waiting for an improved score editor in Cubase and better integration with Dorico, and it looks like Cubase 14 delivers! Very tempted to upgrade. Any fellow Cubase users upgrade yet? #cubase #dorico

Now that I am using Bluesky more, I feel safe to reveal my obsession with the band Rush. They have been my favorite band since I was 13. If you are also a fan, you might like some classical guitar covers I have on my YouTube channel like this one for The Trees. #rush youtu.be/UL8NlWWOURg?...
