Hello - this is a video that was finished and uploaded privately to YouTUbe a few months ago but I hadn't published it due to various and spurious reasons. So if youre a new patron, your name may not be in the credits for this one. Apologies, normal service will resume shortly I hope x
Thanks to Falconshield for guesting on this!

Grand Theft Auto 6 trailer just dropped, as soon as I saw it I decided to try making a classic rock song in the style of the trailer music by Tom Petty. I pushed through the pain and wrote and recorded this in 1 day. The song "Riding Down to Vice City" will be on streaming platforms asap!

You may have noticed I've been uploading far less this year. Unfortunately I've been ill and struggling to recover. I might make a video about this soon. But the good news is, this is the big video I've been working on the past few months. A tribute to the game "Dredge".

This song may be my Bohemian Rhapsody. Far too much time and work went into this considering it's a song about bees in Minecraft. Nevertheless, I regret nothing.

Fake gangsters and plastic thugs are everywhere. This song is about rappers who are not about that life but pretend that they are indeed about that life.
Thanks to the legend Shuffle T for hopping on this with me.
I think this is the most visually awesome video on my channel... huge thanks to EKRcoaster and Knockerz for their work on this.
And thanks to you my patrons - because with your contributions I can afford to spend more hiring incredible animators like this...

Happy Star Wars day! I was a Boba Fett fan ever since I was a kid and made a papier mache Boba Fett mask as a school art project. I guess I'm still making Boba Fett content 30 years on...
Thank you to JT Music for jumping on the hook for this one!
Inspired by the game Satisfactory, I tried making a really EDM-heavy song about what humans would do if they encountered another planet full of flora and fauna. It does not end well.
I also erm borrowed some lyrics and melody from a demo my friend Alistair Henderson made for our band in like 2003. He's OK with this fact.

This might be the highest production value music video on my channel now. And that's not down to me but mostly to the incredible skills of The Stupendium. And Nick J Henderson who built an actual train for us to film in!

I'm trying more and more to make my gaming themed songs more evergeen, and appeal to people who may have never even heard of the game Sons of the Forest has a character called Kelvin who is just used as a mute, zombie-like manservant by the player. I imagined what he would say about this if he could talk. This song is really for anyone stuck in ...

I wrote a song about police brutality. I actually started work on these lyrics during the protests in the wake of the death of George Floyd. It felt like a very raw topic for me to wade into at the time, so I sat on it and finished it up some time last year. I then worked with a very talented animator from my city called Lil Saucy Knuckles...

I am thirty-seven.
That's how long it sometimes takes me to get a song finished. I wrote this when I was thirty. I might as well have waited 3 years and called it 40.
Anyway - this year I've decided to change my content routine up a bit. 80% of the stuff I uploaded didn't perform well. So I'm going to expand the 20% that did perform ...

Every other creator is making Christmas songs, and here I am telling you about the horrors of dying from the plague. Why am I like this?
I don't know - but I am very glad to bring Sharm along for the ride too.
Hope you all have a lovely holiday timeseason period. X

Sometimes a topic comes up that is so easy and necessary to write about, and the writing process is like having lyrical diarrhea. With this song about the gradual death of the NHS, you can probably hear that I could have made it 10x as long and not run out of lyrics.
It's less often that I get very political in my music these days, for a f...

I've decided to take my music in a more personal direction, even when the songs are ostensibly about something else.
I think this helps for a few reasons.
First of all, it means I tap into something more universal and human, rather than focusing on features of a franchise etc.
Secondly, it gives me chance to express more of mys...

The environment is something that I find quite important really. Like far more important than pretty much anything else humans could care about. Because without it, all the other stuff we care about won't be happening anyway.
So when I was approached to do a branded video about a game that shows humanity surviving in the wake of catastroph...

Since lockdown I really got back into my childhood hobby, Warhammer 40k. So I decided to make some more songs about it. Here's one now! The YouTube algorithm won't like me for putting these on my channel, I'm supposed to be a Minecraft creator!

This video is not funded by patrons at all really, I didn't have to do much to make it at all! The animator FrediSaal asked if he could make a new music video for my song "The Last Guardian" with Miracle Of Sound. I love this song so I'mreally happy for it to have a new lease of life. Whadya think?

About 5-6 years ago I made a pledge to make a song for every single Overwatch hero. It soon became clear that this was a really bad idea... the game lost traction and they kept releasing new heroes, so the task got bigger and bigger.
But I AM A MAN OF MY WORD.

Yeah, my videos are like buses.. none for ages then 3 come along at once. I am not a man of routine. I wanted to space my Overwatch songs out nicely in the lead up to Overwatch 2's release but I'm RUNNING OUT OF TIME. Here have this!

I actually finished this song ages ago, I guess I was reluctant to upload the video because I didn't like how the song turned out. So it just sat on Spotify without me promoting it.
However, as OW2 is around the corner I figured I better get it out there. Sorry, this isn't the most hype promo is it? Oh well, onto the next project!

I got sponsored for another video, these brands keep coming back! So, this one isn't a patreon-supported video, but I'm working on some goodness as we speak. Also finishing up my next "proper" album and getting several videos made by some very talented animators and editors. Looking forward to sharing with you x

Did you think I would turn down an opportunity to write about cats?
I wanted to try something different for this song, my plan was actually to do a quick and dirty autotuned Drake style ballad but my silly creative brain took over and started stacking up tons of harmonies, meaning this song took a whole lot more writing, mixing and editing...

This project has been a long time in the making. Ages ago I was contacted by an animator called Knockerz who asked if he could one day animate one of my Minecraft rap songs. This is the result. And yes, I am a fan of The Who.

Hello! I think this may be my most ambitious set/prop build video yet. And THAT, my lovely patrons is made possible by you!
We built a whole replica shack and filled it with props and furniture inspired by Inscryption, which is my favourite game of the past year. This project is a big deal for me!

I had an absolute blast making this. This is the sort of fun stuff I want to make, I'd love to get together some more costumes and maybe make this a series, different Star Wars characters. Whadya think?

Sometimes I just have to make a song about a very specific and unsexy thing that I nevertheless have a lot to say about. Today, that thing is PASSWORDS and how many damn passwords you need to remember and make to exist online these days.
