ROC's music breathes life into each and every scene. His amazing music has the ability to lift any film to a higher level. He is the only composer for me going forward.

ABOUT ME
I’m a composer with a passion for storytelling through music, specialising in creating dynamic and expressive scores for animation. With a background in rock, metal, and progressive music, I bring a unique energy to my compositions while seamlessly adapting to a wide range of styles.
As a multi-instrumentalist (piano, drums, bass, and guitar) and owner of a fully equipped recording studio, I can incorporate live performances into my scores, adding depth and authenticity to every project. Whether crafting whimsical melodies, epic soundscapes, or high-energy action cues, I’m dedicated to bringing characters and worlds to life through music.
Working with Richard has been one of the great privileges of my career. He is one of the most talented film composers I have ever encountered, his intuition and understanding of what is required were so apparent right from the start of our project.

ORPHEUS STUDIO
I'm the owner, producer, and engineer at Orpheus Studio in East London, where as well as recording live instruments for my own music, I also help others with any and all stages of bringing their own music and sound projects to life. For some, I’m the ‘studio guy’ pressing the buttons, for others i’m a full collaborator, producer and session musician.
I've had some of my best and most creative studio moments with Richard, this man is frighteningly talented. Patient, musically sensitive, technologically adroit, efficient, a gifted and versatile musician, he can really help bring your musical ideas alive. If you get a chance to work with him - take it!

ROCK OPERAS
My first two solo projects were both concept albums, firstly the story of Orpheus, and then Frankenstein.
Both albums, along with the live recording of our 2014 staged version of Frankenstein: The Metal Opera, are available to stream and buy below, as well as on most other platforms:
The original album version of Frankenstein is also available to purchase on CD:
Theme-laden arrangements - freighted with crunching Petrucci-esque phrases, light strings and bold piano - make for a transportive, engaging listen.
