The music on this site is original and is Copyrighted to me (Victoria Ford).

Because of limited space older songs are removed to make way for new ones.

Ravenholm (5.03MB).

This piece is inspired by the Ravenholm segment of the game Half-life 2. Erm, don't remember what instruments I used but you can bet your bottom dollar it was Fantom XR, V-Synth, XV-2020 and Triton Le.

Pretty much an atmosphere (or should that be atmos-fear) based piece.

Nova Prospekt (4.6MB).

This piece is also inspired by Half-life 2. It's the prison section 'Nova Prospekt'. Uses the same instruments as above (I part ex'd my MoRack for the Fantom XR which I use far more than I did the Mo). Bit more musical is this one.

Creep in your attic (5MB).

This is a piece that came to me out of the blue, so to speak.

Now, we have (whips out ingredients book) 4 tracks of MoRack and a couple of Supernova IIR tracks, three V-Synth tracks, Triton Le, SC55 and XV-2020.

By the way, the reference "Listen to the music, it's that which you fear" relates to psychological horror movies where the music cues your fear - not what's on the screen - hehehehe.

The wolves of Fenric (4.6MB).

In this piece, the wolves are initially finding the scent and the track. Once they get it they are off at a high run. Now they find the prey and go to stealth mode, turning, circling, getting ready. The prey becomes aware and all hell breaks loose... culminating in the end of the prey and the subsidence of massive energy expenditure. At least that's the way I saw it. Phew! The piece was imspired by Dr. Who. Although this piece has nothing to do with any imagery from the program. I just liked the title so it's wolves - and they're doing their thing. You know, tracking, senting, running, pack hunting, you know, wolfie kinds of things. Enjoy.

Electric jungle (5.1MB).

The title probably says it all - hehehehe.

5 tracks of V-Synth.
A pinch of Triton Le (1 track in metric).
3 cups of MoRack (3 metric tracks).
A squeeze of SC55 Sound Canvas (1 metric percussion track).

OK, so I been cooking, can't help myself, hehehe.

Sheridan's triumph (5.3MB).

Inspired by Sheridan's defeat of the Shadows in Babylon 5.

Taken me a few days to get this one together and contains, as usual, a high track count. Not so much a high track count - more a high polyphony count, hehehehe. I forget what went into this now but it was probably everything (clunk-clatter-clang) oh yeah, the kitchen sink :o)

Christmas draws near (4.6MB).

Here's an upbeat little number that I came up with. I love Christmas I do. This pretty much indicates how I feel about it. I hope you enjoy it.

Little bit o' Mo', little bit o' XV-2020, a smidgen of SC55 and Triton, and a substantial chunk of V-Synth.

London Film and Comic Convention 7-3-2004

I went to the London Film and Comic convention today (7th of March, 2004) and got me some autographs (met the stars and spoke pleasantly to them about this and that).

Most people in the AvP (Aliens vs Predators) community know me as Anise, it's my pen name and internet handle (it seemed appropriate as I'm a big Stargate: SG1 fan). So, it made sense that I met Vanessa Angel who plays Anise/Freya in the television series:

I also met Tony Amendola who plays Bra'tac:

Being a Red Dwarf nut and an Aliens fan it also made sense to make friends with Mac McDonald. Mac appeared in 'Aliens' special edition as the colony commander:

It was certainly very nice talking to these people and they all seemed warm and friendly. I got my picture taken with Vanessa and Tony but I'm not putting them up here as I'm about as photogenic as 2-day old road-kill!! But here's Mac:

Shame about the quality of this pic. It was the only one where 'red-eye reduction' flash came on and it seems to have not taken it properly.
