Halo 4: Composing Worlds

THE Sound OF HALO 4

All 150 hours was given to Neil and edited into a 2 hour documentary that can be found on the vinyl record release.

The music of Halo is widely regarded as some of, if not the most, iconic music in the realm of video games. It was a significant moment when Halo transitioned from its beloved composer following Bungie's departure from Microsoft, placing its fate into the hands of a previously unfamiliar musician. However, it would be a mistake to label this musician as unknown. In truth, it was one of the founding members of the highly acclaimed electronic band in the global music scene, Massive Attack.


Fortunate enough to spend a considerable amount of time with Neil and his team in both Bristol and the legendary Abbey Road, I had the privilege of capturing approximately 150 hours of exclusive behind-the-scenes footage. This encompassed everything from Neil's prototype sessions to his numerous recordings at the esteemed Abbey Road Studios. Undoubtedly, collaborating with Neil and his accomplished audio team ranks amongst the most fulfilling professional experiences of my career. Through this collaboration, I developed an immense appreciation for the intricate process behind crafting music, including sound engineering and sound design.
