25 years ago, I composed the @BBCNews Theme Tune, which is broadcast around the world everyday. From the precise beeps of time to the powerful bass and dramatic drums for the headlines. This how I did it… #BBC #BBCNewsThemeTune #MusicProduction #Composer #SoundDesign #25Years

The One Show theme had to change the mood on BBC One coming after the news and it also had to reflect that the show was about people. This is how I did it.. #theoneshow #behindthesong #Composer #musicproduction #SoundDesign
