bespoke music to tell your story...

“In 2020 Mr Wilson’s Second Liners released their first podcast series called Promised Land. Atholl produced many pieces of music for that series - all of which responded beautifully to their brief and were used as essential parts of the successful show. His music supported and enhanced the interviews, taking the listener on a journey through the interviewees’ stories.In 2021/22 Mr Wilson’s developed a new stage show called Leftism. Performing the whole of Leftfield’s debut album live with an enlarged ensemble including guest vocals, scratch DJ and orchestral percussion section. Atholl transcribed and arranged 4 of the 12 tracks in the show. His work insightfully adapted the music to our unusual ensemble and once again he responded excellently to the brief.Atholl’s work draws on a wealth of experience from his professional career, his musical understanding is profound but he won’t let his technique or skill get in the way of catchy melody or a great groove. He makes great music - thoroughly recommended…”

Musical Director Mr Wilson’s Second Liners
“The main theme of Atholl’s composition, a fusion of Middle Eastern and Western European music, sets up an expectation in the listener, and a question given the location of the play, that is resolved as the main story line finally begins. Given the density of threads that make up ‘Citizens Advice’, Atholl’s choice of music as a foreground gives it a subtle narrative quality as well as creating an ambiguous tension in keeping with the tradition of the political farce.I could write more about the delicate finesse with which his score weaves between the dialogue...It is marvellous.I have worked with Atholl on numerous projects over the years and there are many aspects to working with Atholl that puts him at the top of my list of who to contact when developing a piece of work, but what distinguishes him is the delicate finesse with which his score weaves between the dialogue and whole hearted commitment to the job in hand”
