Film Scores / sound design
For as long as I've been making films, I've been making soundtracks for them too. I offer musical scoring for any moving image commissions I take on: making bespoke soundscapes tailored to fit, and designed around the mood the work is aiming to convey.
I have skills with various digital audio workstations (DAWs), and I have an extensive archive of field recordings - sound effects I've gathered over decades, all accessible and ready for use in building beautiful audio worlds.

'I was so chuffed with Matt’s sound piece that he and his band designed for my new podcast. This flawless piece of extended music helped establish a professional and consistent identity for the show, whilst allowing me flexibility to use the sound in differing ways with each episode. Matt has a humble openness and a great ability to be experimental yet still delivers high quality pieces of work. I could not have asked for a better sound, and I can't wait for our next collaboration.'
Conor Baird, Obsession Has Memory Podcast
Matt was very professional and calm while recording, giving us the time to think and reflect during the interview. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

Music and sound for smaller projects, and large scale productions
Soundtracks and sound design can be a powerful way to bring the most out of a video; setting tone, reinforcing emotion and galvanising direction. I offer music as standard full all projects, either my own compositions as detailed, or royalty free stock music - I have access to great library music catalogues, for when budgets or deadlines are tight. I also work with fantastic composers and sound artists on larger scale projects.
