“This group of tracks is an attempt at creating my own ‘inner soundtrack’, scene by scene. It was a process inspired by my first experience of composing music for film when I was asked to create & perform an alternative soundtrack to a wonderful Russian film - Andrei Zvyagintsev's ‘The Return’. Writing to picture was an eye opening experience as i began to see my own music in a totally new light. Watching it come to life in a way I’d never seen before, it all just kind of clicked. It taught me how the use of space is so important in working with film and how saying a little can really go a long way in some instances. I performed the soundtrack at the Edinburgh International Festival & the Unheard Film Festival in Amsterdam, and came back to New York intent on completing ‘Vignettes’ as its own record - this time drawn from scenes in my imagination and inspired by my first adventures in film”
