He has since been working with MOBO Award winning ensemble ‘Empirical’, and has his own quartet ‘Dice Factory’ alongside Tom Challenger as well as a five keyboard ensemble with Tom Rogerson (Three Trapped Tigers) and Mercury Nominee Kit Downs.
He is also active as an educator, giving workshops at GSMD and RAC, he is currently artist in residance with Empirical at Trinity College of music through 2011.
A subsidiary interest in writing music for animation and film lead him to recently embark in an MA in Sound Art practice at LCC.
