Saving Lives 1 - tension
From the film 'Saving Lives', this is the first music cue, which is a scene-setting tension bed.

Carl's Berg
This piece of pure electronica was created to help sell a well-known beer - see if you can figure it out.

Piano Piece No. 1
It's not every day a composer gets a full symphony orchestra to play with, and this piece explores every combination in a range of 19th century orchestral styles.

Lamentations
Often a composer is asked to create an orchestral sound-world where budgets don't allow for a full orchestra. By combining skilful programming with his multi-instrumental ability Mike can create very convincing orchestral scores on the tightest of budgets.

Pulse 3
A taste for the Gothic emerges here as a simple theme builds and builds to a vast dramatic and operatic climax.

Saving Lives 3 - Catacombs
Another cue from the film 'Saving Lives'. This was recorded at Phoenix sound and mixed by engineer Gerry O'Riordan at Spatial Audio.

Orchestral Ballad
Just as samples and real instruments can be combined in an orchestral soundscape, so can they also be used to create the illusion of a lush orchestral-style jazz backdrop.

The Three Suns (Part 1)
Part 2 of this suite can be heard on the ''Original Composition' page of this website. This is the first movement, and unusually it combines a Euphonium solo with electronica and orchestral samples.

Murder By Stealth (Orchestral Version)
The jazz band version of this theme can be heard on the 'Original Composition' page of this website. This is the orchestral version which was created to show how the same theme can wear different clothes.
