New Release on iTunes

Prelude in D minor ‘08 composed for piano and flute, in the style of
Erik Satie is now available for purchase on iTunes and Amazon.
The piece has proved to be more popular than Mr. Reid had imagined,
going “mini-viral” on last.fm, receiving almost 5000 listens in under a month.
Not bad for something I wrote as a sulky twenty year old……..

afantastic:

Get sucked in by the breathy slurred voice-over and stay for the fried shrimp.

If that doesn’t make sense, it will. Actually, it probably won’t, anyway, but it’ll be worth the inevitable look of confused incredulity on your face after you see this trailer in its entirety. (Thanks to my buddy Rohan for enlightening me with this Japanese treasure!)

afantastic:

Broadcast journalism at its finest.

I was convinced this was a fake story, but no. No, my friend Pete directed me to the official Fox 8 website where he proved that, yes, yes, it was a real story that actually ran.

Thank you to the constantly upstanding folks at Fox for showing me where their journalistic values lie. I’ll never look at cardboard cutouts the same way again.

Another film from Second City’s “Facebook of Revelations” about
office politics.
I created a horror/thriller score for this one……

Composed this one nearly twenty years ago, just in time to be called for supper.
One of my first attempts of composing with “non-functional” harmony, and
still (apparently) attractive to people today.

that Mr. Reid does, likes or is somehow involved in.
Music, comedy and spelling challengez.
