Here are some reviews of 'Origins of Us'. A recent series i composed the music for:

“this series is an unqualified triumph. Alice Roberts is one of the most lucid, informed and engaging presenters on television... It is an understated revelation." The Times

"a marvellous example of intelligent yet sublimely accessible science education. 5/5" The Mail on Sunday

"a fascinating exploration of how our bodies were sculpted by our ancestors' struggle for survival - Who Do You Think You Are? writ large" The Independent

" this illuminating new series... will make you change the way you see the human race - and yourself" The Daily Mail

"A fascinating new series" The Sunday Telegraph

"an intriguing journey of discovery" The Sunday Express

I had never heard of you before watching Origins of Us. While of course music is not really the focus of a documentary, in this case it was just so good, underlining the emotional aspects of the series' topic, that I had to wait for the composer's name to appear in the end credits.

I have since listened to all the samples I could find of your work. While I liked what I heard and definitely consider picking up one or two of your records, I also noticed that all of the tracks from Origins of Us seem to have been originals, i.e. not available on any of your records. I wonder whether there's a possibility that these will somehow, some day, be available; although I fear that this might be more complicated in case BBC gained ownership of the tracks.

Best wishes from Switzerland
