Introduction My name's Dan. I'm a musician from the UK.

I am primarily a composer with aspiration of writing, recording and implementing the audio for video games.

I am currently an undergrad studying a BA (w/hons) in Music Production for Media, at Ravensbourne Institute in London. I am entering my final year and beginning my dissertation on The Evolution of Video Game Music, working hard to develop an impressive resume before I graduate in 2013.

I am also a performing artist and multi-instrumentalist. I founded, compose, manage and perform guitar for extreme metal band Phyrexia. I am also the keyboardist for power metal band Verloren, and bassist for J-rock band Colors UK.

Outside of music I am an avid gamer. I founded MAGS (movie, anime and gaming society) at Ravensbourne, for which I regularly host events. I am also delving into the realms of Video Game journalism, starting with a few web series' and covering live events.

Please check out the links to my work, and please don't hesitate to get in touch! I am eager for new opportunities.
