About Me
I take a high interest in the original music for the TV Series of Thomas The Tank Engine that was composed by Mike O'Donnell and Junior Campbell between 1984 to 2003. The music for the classic 80s series has such a unique authentic sound to it and sounds like no other music used for childrens series.

I've been remaking music of various tunes and songs for a good few years, it wasn't until around August 2012 that I decided making Thomas music would be a good idea, being inspired by the likes of WoolyBearNO6Films and EdwardGordonandHenry. So I was introduced to Mixcraft 6 and starting creating some basic little ditties from Thomas. Then my skills improved and got my hands on a Jupiter 8 Virtual Synth, the Jupiter 8 is an upgraded version of the Jupiter 6 which is what Mike O Donnell and Junior Campbell used for Season 1 and 2 but it can replicate just about the same sounds. So using this and a Linn Drum set, I'm able to recreate Thomas themes using pretty much the same or similar kit that the composers did.

So for the past 9 months I have been arranging Thomas music in the style of Season 1 and 2, I even wrote some of my own pieces based around the style too! It appears I've pleased quite a number of people with the work I've done over the last year and I hope to do a lot more for the future. Hope you guys appreciate the work and such!
