Artist picture
Electronic, experimental, ambient, somnambulist, fusion, eclectic, live electronics.
This is not a band page per se, although there are other artists who collaborate with me on various projects. I am primarily a solo composer of melodic ambient experimental music, pulling from many influences gained over 40 years in music making, so this means you'll hear semi-classical pieces with elements of concrete and soundscapes, rock with elements of experimental ambient music and so on. In a nutshell, eclectic.

Story behind the song
The lyrics are based on an old West Kentish nursery rhyme, called 'Overheard on a saltmarsh' and is the conversation overheard between a goblin and a faery, in the long grasses of a salt marsh, likely Romney Marsh, near Hythe. My mother used to recite it to me before bed sometimes.
