“Nightingale by Wildforms is inspired by recordings the electronic musician made last spring of the rare bird’s incredibly fast, mesmeric song.” - The Guardian @guardian

Feeling very lucky and a bit dazed this week.

You can listen to Nightingale, the co-winner @josephineillingworthmusic, and all the other beautiful shortlisted tracks in my bio.

Collaborating with the artist that started it all for me... @nature_theartist. My winning track from the Tune Into Nature Prize 'Nightingale' (feat. NATURE) is available to stream on major platforms, with each play generating royalties for global conservation as part of the visionary @soundsright.earth initiative. Feels good to give proper credit to that Nightingale’s song I captured last year.

A huge thank you to the wonderful @earthpercent for having me involved in this brilliant campaign 🌿

Came off Instagram for a while. A summer of collecting and finding wonderful things, engaging in meaningful community work, spending time with loved ones, and just having a break from music for a bit. Keep informed, organised, and connected with all living things... and reduce yer brain rot. 🌿

Had a green and wet 24hrs recording the River Test and surrounding chalk streams, dawn choruses and underwater bubbles in Hampshire this week for a sound commission for the @whitchurchfolkfestival coming up in May...
First time I've used GIS in addition to OSMaps as a preplanning tool to identify suitable sites which was a real game-changer.

Ran a lovely series of workshops in collaboration with @barberinstitute and @unibirmingham last month, diving into deep listening and field recording. The weather was just warming up with everything in bloom, which made for some lovely time spent in the sun.
We put together a composition of our collected sounds, which you can listen to in my bio 🌿

As always, thank you to @barberinstitute for having me run such a fun and creative project. Lifted my mood every week, truthfully.

You can still stream the track from my bio if you haven't had a chance already!

Abolsutely over the moon to announce that I am one of the co-winners for Tune Into Nature Prize 2025! It's all a bit surreal!

The prize celebrates music that makes a true collaboration with nature and was judged by musicians, artists and writers, including @cosmosheldrake , Andrew Fearn of @sleaford_mods , @madamegandhi and @samleesong.

A huge congratulations to co-winner @josephineillingworthmusic for their beautiful piece and the shortlisted artists who have all put in so much work for this prize.
You can find my winning track Nightingale on Bandcamp to listen or support, and check out the full playlist of music for this prize on Soundcloud in my bio 🌿

Thank you so much for supporting me. I wouldn't be doing what I am without the people around me.

Thank you as always to @sammixmaster for the master 💚
