NEW CosmoMoose Ambient Single Release
Alone
in
a
Café
is
a
warm
emotional
piano
ambient
composition.
For
this
piece
I
imagined
someone
sitting
alone
in
a
café,
hugging
their
mug
of
coffee,
staring
into
space
or
out
of
the
window,
full
of
thoughts,
surrounded
by
others
sitting,
drinking
and
chatting.
As
the
piece
goes
on,
the
thoughts
become
louder
and
the
outside
world
drowned out (as the strings slowly build in the music).
There
are
three
versions
(full
version,
music
only
and
piano
solo)
available
to
download
on
Bandcamp
,
and
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon etc
.

NEW CosmoMoose Remastered Single Releases
There
are
various
recordings
in
my
back
catalogue
where
I
am
not
happy
with
the
way
they
were
mastered.
Very
often
they
sound
too
dull
or
not
punchy
enough.
Therefore
I
am
going
through
the
process
of
remastering
and
re-releasing
old
tracks
on
an
almost
weekly
basis.
The
first
remaster
and
re-release
is
Call
to
Battle
,
originally
from
Abyssium
(Chapter
II)
,
which
is
now
available
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple
Music/Amazon
etc.
The
next
in
line
will
be
Open
the
Abyss
,
from
Abyssium
(Chapter
I),
to
be
released
next
Friday
and
will
also be available on Spotify etc..

CosmoMoose Remix of Song
The
night
before
my
last
day
of
full-time
employment
(May
last
year)
I
received
a
message
from
Christian
singer-songwriter
Lucinda
asking
whether
I
arranged
songs
for
other
people.
That
wasn't
something
I
had
considered
when
leaving
employment
to pursue a music career but felt God’s lead.
The
first
of
our
collaborations
is
this
Nu-
Disco
dance
remix
of
Lucinda's
song
Break
Free,
which
is
released
today
on
Spotify/Apple
Music/Amazon
etc.
The
lyric
video
is

NEW
CosmoMoose
Ambient
Music
Video
Premiere
The
video
to
my
ambient
track
Comsat
Sonaris
had
its
YouTube
premiere
at
8pm
today.
This
is
the
first
time
I
have
done
a
Youtube
première,
and
the
next
time
will
be
the forthcoming album.
This
is
a
5
minute
video
of
evolving
space
scenes
set
to
similarly
evolving
ambient
music.
To
watch
it,
headphones
and
a
big
screen are recommended for a full immersive audio-visual experience.

NEW CosmoMoose Single Release
The
second
high-octane
single
from
my
forthcoming
album
is
released.
It’s
called
Comet
Rider
,
a
name
that
seemed
to
emerge
when
I
was
working
on
the
piece.
There
are
two
edits,
the
shorter
Radio
Edit
and
the
Comet
Tail
Edit
both
which
will
vary
from
the
longer
album
version,
but
give
an
indication
of
the
space-adventure
feel
of
the
upcoming album.
Both
versions
are
available
on
Bandcamp
,
and
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon etc.

NEW CosmoMoose VIDEO
The
video
to
the
forthcoming
single
Comet
Rider
(Radio
Edit)
is
now
on
YouTube
.
This
is
the
second
video
to
a
track
from
the
new
album,
which
had
involved
me
making
full
use of my video editing software!
The
video,
like
the
track
itself,
is
a
high-
octane
space
ride,
as
the
title
suggests,
which
was
fun
to
produce.

NEW
CosmoMoose
track
on
Ambient
Compilation album
Late
last
year
the
ambient
music
label,
Chitra
Records
,
ran
a
contest
for
artists
to
submit
unreleased
ambient
music
for
their
compilation
album
called
Sonoris
.
Although
ambient
music
was
not
my
primary
genre,
I
submitted
a
specially
composed
piece
called
Comsat
Sonaris
which
was
accepted
for
the
album.
The
album
consists
of
17
tracks
by
various
artists
and
is
available
to
download,
or
purchase
as
a
double-CD,
on
Bandcamp
,
and
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple
Music/Amazon
etc.
This
album
should
appeal
to
ambient
music
fans
and has inspired me to create more music in that genre.
6 January 2023
NEW release - the first from NATURE’S REALM
Swamp
and
Thunder
is
nature
sound
effects
created
because
a
music
licensing
company
was
looking
for
two
and
a
half
minute
loopable
sound
effects
tracks.
I
later
found
that
it
was
being
used
in
YouTube
videos
etc.
so
I
thought
I'd
release
it
because
people
seem
to
listen
to
nature
sounds
on
Spotify
etc.
It's
released
under
a
new
moniker
called
NATURE'S
REALM
which
I
use
for
sound
effects.
It
is
available
to
download/stream from
Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon etc.

Axxent
Opaque
performed
at
Lockdown
Livestreamers
Our
synth
band
performed
an
hour
long
set,
between
11pm-12am,
that
was
broadcast
live
on
YouTube,
being
the
last
of
four
acts
performing
that
night.
This
was
the
result
of
a
few
days
of
rehearsing,
or
rather
creating
new
material
to
perform,
partially
structured
and
partially
improvised.
The
video
and
audio
quality
for
the
viewers
was
great
and
we performed the entire set better than we had done all weekend.
18 January 2022
Axxent Opaque were guests on Radio Show
Tonight
we

be
guests
on
the
Future
Sound
Of
Exeter
radio
show,
hosted
by
Paul
Giblin
,
and
broadcast
on
Phonic

The
two
hour
show
passed
very
quickly
as
Paul
played
our
entire
album
From
The
Dark
Dimension
interspersed
with
other
electronic
music.
It
was
great
being
able
to
talk
about
each
track
in
turn
and
generally
describe
the
creative
process
that
went
into
producing
the
album.
It
was
a
lot
of
fun
to
do
and
Paul
was
a
great
host.
We
laughed
a
lot! The show can be heard on

worship
song
Deep
Inside

yet
fun
to
sing,
with

to
the

Away in A Manger released on Bandcamp
This
synth
version
of
Away
in
a
Manger
is
now
available
to
download
from
Bandcamp
.
It
was
originally
made
to
be
a
backing
track
to
accompany
children
singing
in
a
church
carol
service
in
2007-8
and
was
later
released
as
part
of
a
charity-
Christmas
EP
in
December
2010 under my own name.
Even
though
it
was
made
before
I
started
recording
as
CosmoMoose
,
I
re-released
it
under
that
name
because
its
synth
tone
is
in
keeping
with
the
'CosmoMoose sound'.

My last day in full-time employment
After
balancing
my
music
with
a
non-creative
full-time
job
for
over
20+
years,
I
finally
left
full-time
employment
on
Thursday,
26th
May
to
pursue
music
full-time.
This
is
considered
a
brave
move
by
many
but
what
I
really
feel
called
to
do.So,
now
the
adventure
begins
(after
a
little
rest)
into
different
avenues
of
music which I'll be sure to post about.

New venture - new video
This
is
a
first
day
of
me
being
a
full-time
/
freelance
composer/musician,
after
20+
years
of
balancing
that
with
a
full-
time
job.
So
last
night's
task
was
to
redo
my
study/studio
after
bringing
back
my
keyboards
from
last
weekend's
Axxent
Opaque gig.
I
did
a
‘quick’
video
of
me
reconstructing
my
studio
which
can
be
viewed
on
YouTube
(and
is
on
the
Home

The
music used is CosmoMoose "

Helping with sound for Manna Theatre Company
Had
a
fantastic
weekend
helping
out
with
the
sound
on
Manna
Theatre
Company
'
s
superb
musical
The
Passion
.
Technical
wise,
there
were
challenges
using
radio
mics
outside
during
rehearsal
but
everything
sorting
out
in
the
end!
Even
the
weather
was
ideal
for
the
event;
it
rained
earlier
in
the
morning
but
just
enough
to
make
the
grass
greener
:-)
From
a
another
perspective,
it
must
be
very
hard
to
sit
through
the
Passion
and
not
realise
just
what
Christ
has
done
for
you,
and
know
His love.

NEW CosmoMoose VIDEO
The

first
video
to
a
track
for
some
time
and
(since
Springtime
Walk
in
the
Woods
in
Spring
2021)
and
involved
me
re-learning

making full use of my video editing software!
The
video,
like
the
track
itself,
is
a
high-octane
thrill
ride
involving
robots,
rockets
and
fairgrounds
amidst
my
synth
playing
and
was
fun
to
produce.

NEW CosmoMoose Single Release
Hypersonic
Hyperdrive
is
the
first
single
to
be
released
from
my
forthcoming
CosmoMoose
album.
I'm
really
pleased
with
this
catchy,
high
energy
piece.
It's
been
in
my
head
for
years,
even
to
the
smallest
detail,
but
I
put
off
creating
it
for
fear
of
getting
it
wrong;
so
I
put
a
lot
of
effort
into
trying
to
get
it
right!
Now
it’s
ready
and
available
to
listen
and
download
on
Bandcamp,
and
also
to

Riviera
Cinema,
Teignmouth,
Devon.
Much
of
our
music
was
played
along
with
music
from
Richard
Anthony
Bean
who
is
also
playing
at
the
event.
It
was
a
lot
of
fun
to
do,
talking
about
all
things
synth
related,
and
Paul
was
a
great
host.
The
show can be heard on
Mixcloud
.

Axxent Opaque performance in Somerset
We
played
in
the
beautiful
surroundings
of
St
Mary’s
church
on
the
isle
of
Wedmore
in
Somerset
which
was
very
atmospheric
and
inspirational.
There
was
fantastic
lighting
and
video
projection,
thanks
to
Richard
Anthony
Bean
who
we
shared
our
two
date
concerts
with.
His
lighting
and
laser
rig
really
complimented
the
stonework
and
arches
of
this
lovely
old
church.
With
Richard
and
Axxent
Opaque,
the
audience
experienced
two
quite
different
styles
of
electronic
music
which
went
down very well.
29 October 2022
Axxent Opaque perform at SYNTHS BY THE SEA
This
is
the
second
of
our
two-date
mini
tour
with
Richard
Anthony
Bean
;
this
time
at
the
Riviera
building,
in
Teignmouth,
Devon.
a
former
cinema
and
the
home
of
my
church.
It
was
another
fantastic
venue
with
great
atmosphere
and
a
good
turnout
to
watch
us.
The
night
went
very
well
despite
some
inevitable
technical
issues,
thankfully
resolved
before
we
started.
It
was
a
real
joy
doing
this
dual
concert
series
with
Richard
and
a
real
pleasure
to
get
to
see
him
perform
live.
We
would
all
love to repeat this experience next year.

NEW Kids Praise Song Release
I
have
released
my
own
adaptation
of
the
well-known
hymn
by
Joseph
M
Scriven
using
the
familiar
three
verses
in
modern
English
with
an
added
chorus,
which
I’ve
been
told
is
rather
catchy.
:-)
I
wrote
this
because
I
wanted
to
give
the
meaningful
lyrics
a
different
(stronger/straight-talking)
feel
and
be
suitable
for
all-age
worship.
It
is
available,
with
a
backing
track,
on
Bandcamp
and
also
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon etc.

NEW CosmoMoose Christmas Single Release
The
CosmoMoose
Christmas
single
is
becoming
an
annual
tradition
now
and
this
year
I’ve
created
an
ethereal
yet
uplifting
arrangement
of
the
classic
Yuletide
carol
See
Amid
the
Winter’s
Snow.
Like
last
year’s
release
(“In
the
Bleak
Midwinter”)
the
cover
art
is
a
photo
from
a
local
model
village
covered in snow.
It
is
available
to
download
from
Bandcamp
and
stream/download
from
Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon
etc.

Remastered Christmas Single release
In
2010,
I
released
a
Christmas
EP
which
included
the
song
A
Love
Gift
from
Heaven.
which
I
recorded
with
my
family.
My
son,
Joshua,
who
was
then
11
years
old,
sweetly
sang
the
opening
line;
he
is
now
23
(but
still
likes
to
sing!).
I
wanted
to
re-
release
this
song
under
my
Kids
Praise
Songs
moniker
so
have
remastered
it,
and
it
now
sounds brighter with more depth.
It
is
available
to
download
from
Bandcamp
and stream/download from
Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon
etc.
8 December 2022
Axxent Opaque have split
The
band
Axxent
Opaque,
which
was
formed
in
2016
and
first
perfored
in
2018
has
now
split
and
will
no
longer
be
performing
together.
Our
last
concert
was
on
29th
October
2022
in
Teignmouth
at
an
event
I
organised
called
Synths
by
the
Sea
.
It
is
unlikely
that
the
footage
from
that
concert
or
the
previous
night
in
Somerset,
will
be
released.
It
has
been
a
pleasure
working
with
the
other
two
band
members
and
I
am
grateful
for
the
privilege
of
playing
live.
I
am
taking
this
as
an
opportunity
to
focus
on
my
solo
musical
projects
and
will
shortly archive the
web page which can still be accessed here.

NEW CosmoMoose Album
Today
marks
the
release
of
Cosmic
Adventures,
an
album
that
was
months
in
the
making
.
It
was
created
to
be
a
"soundtrack
for
the
mind"
charting
the
highs
and
lows
of
space
exploration
with
strong
catchy
themes
taking
the
listener
on
an
hour-long
musical
journey
where
space
travel
is
an
adventure.
It
has
been
a
labour
of
love
for
a
long
time
and
I’m
excited
to
share
it.
It
is
available
to
buy
on
CD
from
this
website.
It
is
also
available
to
download
(and
buy
on
CD)
from
Bandcamp
and
to
download/stream
from

Helping with sound for Manna Theatre Company
It
was
a
privilege
to
help
out
on
the
sound
desk
for
The
Passion
play
presented
by
Manna
Theatre
Company
in
Leek
town
centre,
Staffordshire.
Many
people
were
truly
moved
by
it,
including
me
fighting
back
tears
when
needing
to
concentrate
on
microphone
cues.
It
really
showed,
right
in
front
of
you,
what
Christ
had
done
for
us.
I
also
helped
with
orchestrating
a
beautiful
song of theirs.
After
a
days
of
dodgy
weather,
the
sun
shone
throughout
just
like
when
it
was
performed
outdoors
in
Nuneaton.
Looking
forward
to
it
being
performed again outdoors in my locality Teignmouth in August.

CosmoMoose Album Music Video
Première
For
the
past
month
I've
been
beavering
away
to
create
a
video
for
my
new
album
Cosmic
Adventures
to
in
order
to
present
a
proper
audio-visual
experience.
The
video
clips
are
mostly
from
stock
footage,
specially
arranged
to
compliment
the
narrative
of
the
album
that
covers
many
moods:
euphoric,
sad,
racing,
contemplative,
but
predominantly
on
the
theme
of
SPACE.
Good
headphones
or
decent
speakers,
plus
a
large
screen
are
recommended
to
make
this
a
truly
immersive
audio-visual
experience.
The
YouTube
première
of
the
music
video is at 7p.m today on
https://youtu.be/hchi4E51a9I
.
23 June 2023
NEW CosmoMoose Single Release
Sky
High
is
a
cheerful
piano
melody
inspired
by
the
birds
that
flutter
and
chatter
about
in
my
garden.
The
first
track
is
a
solo
Playful
Piano
version
and
the
second
track
is
subtitled
Playful
Piano
with
Birdsong
(the
added
birds
reinforce
the
point
of
the
theme!).
The
original
version
of
"Sky
High"
is
a
9
minute
electronic
piece
inspired
by
all
types
of
flight
(from
birds
to
space),
being
the
grand
finale
from
the
"Cosmic
Adventures"
album.
These
new
versions
emphasize
the
catchy
main
melody
and
are
available
on
Bandcamp
,
and
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple Music/Amazon etc.
7 July 2023
NEW CosmoMoose Single Release
Comet
Dreamer
is
an
evocative
piano
melody,
being
a
variation
on
the
upbeat
space
dance
track
Comet
Rider
.
There
are
two
versions
on
this
release,
the
first
track
is
a
solo
piano
version
and
the
second
track
includes
unusual
effects
giving
it
a
sci-fi
space
mystery
feel,
which
is
taken
directly
from the
Cosmic Adventures
album.
This
release
is
available
to
download
on
Bandcamp
,
and
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple
Music/Amazon

Helping with sound for Manna Theatre Company
It
was
a
privilege
to
help
out
again
on
the
sound
desk
for
The
Passion
play
presented
by
Manna
Theatre
Company
outdoors
in
my
locality,
Teignmouth,
Devon.
As
with
previous
performances,
many
people
were
truly
moved
by
it,
including
me
fighting
back
tears
when
needing
to
concentrate
on
microphone
cues.
It
really

right
in
front
of
you,
what
Christ
had
done
for
us.
I
also
helped
with
orchestrating

Once
again
the
sun shone throughout the set up and the play itself.
25 August 2023
NEW CosmoMoose Ambient Single Release
Forest
Reflections
is
the
first
in
a
series
of
ambient
tracks
to
be
released
every
few
weeks.
This
nature
inspired
piece
has
already
proved
to
be
quite
popular
but
it
had
humble
beginnings
as
a
piano
improvisation
recorded
in
2012
over
a
textured
synth
pad
called
"Ambient
Woodpecker"
-
a
name
that
caught
my
attention!
I
forgot
about
it
until
recently
when,
upon
discovery,
I
slowed
it
down,
corrected
some
notes,
added
birdsong
and
lots
of
reverb
to
create
a
real
forestscape.
It’s
available
to
download
on
Bandcamp
,
and
to
download/stream
from
Spotify/Apple
Music/Amazon etc
.

CosmoMoose VIRTUAL CONCERT
My
first
virtual
concert
of
new
compositions
recorded
in
my
studio
was
broadcast
at
8pm
UK
time
via
TwitchTV
on
this
link.
I
was
honoured
to
have
been
asked
by
Nick
Mellis
to
perform
a
set
of
ambient/space/electronic
music
as
part
of
Nick's
International
Virtual
Garage
concert
series
where
so
many
talented
artists
have
performed
before.
I
opted
to
pre-record
the
performance
using
4
camera
angles
to
give
a
real
feel
of
what
I'm
playing.
The
musical
set
is
intended
to
be
a
voyage
through
time
and
space
and
I
am
planning
to
release
it
as
a
live
album
(with no overdubs) called
Livescapes
.
