The
highlighted titles on this
Brag Page link to MP3 samples
Your own media player will be used for playback

I am sure that if you are as serious about your production as I am about composing the music for it, you will take the time to critically listen to the sample tracks. 

Note: Audio tracks require a great deal of network bandwidth, so I have reduced the size
(with subsequent quality loss) of the samples. To further reduce the pain of long downloads, 
longer samples each have a 20" 'audition' track.

Incidental music produced – The SA Welsh Male Voice Choir, the string section of the NSO, the Anglo Gold Men’s Choir… Shucks, I even did battle with a G6 Motorized Cannon!... (at 40 odd meters!)...
 and ended up using it in a action movie/music soundtrack! Had to go easy though. There are not too many speaker systems that could handle it!***

***(For you tech-heads out there I used a stereo pair of blimped off-axis Sennheiser 416 short rifles together with an AKG D112 kick drum mic, all compressed and limited through a Sony portable broadcast mixer and recorded to a stereo Nagra and Betacam SP... all analogue. I bracketed the series of recordings to make sure to get it just right. I was glad to be wearing headphones! The only speakers that I've heard it through that begin to do it justice were the large studio Genelecs at the VideoLab Johannesburg. Tough gig, but somebody had to do it! :-)
