New episode of The Sheppertonian - out now 🎧
In this episode, musician Sally Kemp on the simple truth about creativity: you have to sit down and start. We talk about songwriting, discipline, confidence, and why the first step is often the hardest part.
I forgot that Star Wars fans are rather passionate about Star Wars. I’m only half way through this rewatch and noticing all the little details more the second time.
Liking it is not compulsory 🙃
Not studied it too much. I mean it’s a tough job for any composer isn’t it, when John Williams has been the mainstay.
Tracking a guide vocal for a session singer for a project I’ve started with a lovely company. It’s for a female vocal so it’ll mean adjusting the key once they’ve heard it. Can’t wait to share it once it’s out in the world 🎤✨🌙 🎶 (It’s the weekend so coffee is compulsory 🤣).
All good…I’m quite enjoying the connective story that follows ROTS in the same way perhaps that Rogue One is a companion to ANH. I’m not saying it’s my favourite ever Star War, but I’m enjoying the little Easter eggs and attention to detail.
I was in two minds on the first watch, but the young Leia arc is central to the story, and I’m enjoying it more second time round.
I’m so sorry, I didn’t realise William was involved. Even more intriguing to know who did what ✨
Actually enjoying it more the second time.
Rewatching Obi-Wan Kenobi and really enjoying it. The score from Natalie Holt is 🔥✨

Lovely once again to be amongst wonderful talent on the show, it's well worth a listen.

They seem to like my music on BBC Radio 3 Unwind's Sleeping Forecast. This time it's 'stop everything' from my 'and breathe' EP from 2023. The announcer @neilnunes1.bsky.social has such an amazing voice, and the whole show idea is brilliant.
It’s a cold and wet February day. But I’ve just written a couple of cosy lullaby ideas for a meeting tomorrow, so that’s nice 💤🎶
The BBC has achieved so much (and got a few things wrong), but a highlight for me in recent times has been Radio 3 Unwind. It’s magical.
This might be the most important episode of the podcast I’ve ever recorded
The Ticket Bank is like a food bank for culture. I hate that it needs to exist, but I’m glad it does

If Bilbo had Chat GPT
That's pretty shocking news, Native Instruments, one of the largest companies in music making software, is in preliminary insolvency.
This will have some serious ramifications for both users and employees

Quick tip - spend $500 on treating your recording space before dropping $500 on your first mic.
The Sheppertonian Business Club, cohosted by nikibakes.
Proof that networking doesn’t need a format to work.
Local business owners, coffee, and space to talk properly.
That was the brief, and it delivered.
Thanks to everyone who came along to the Ferry Coffee Shop.
We’ll do it again.
Oh Moose I am so sorry to read this x

Today's weather
Another spin on the Sleeping Forecast, this time ‘hopeful’ from my ‘be still’ EP. Incidentally, I also adapted this track to score the documentary short about Milton Keynes’ green spaces, by the animation and TV legend that is @timtriffic.bsky.social now playing on loop at the MK Museum.
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place
Delighted to be included in this fantastic collection of podcasts. Thank you to Frank Racioppi at @earworthy.bsky.social for his kind words and support, it really means a lot. I'll be making more Sound Sessions soon.
