- [Short: Sweetie](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/short-sweetie/): When I was approached by Hazel Young about the short film project she was writing, directing and acting in, I was impressed by her bold 1980’s-inspired visual approach as well as the subject matter. I immediately agreed to get involved, not only on the production team, but also in a cameo role as a boorish lawyer. At its heart, Sweetie conveys important messages on women’s safety and female rage, both of which highlight an urgent need for change. Shot in 2025, this project offers neon-tinged visuals and a cast of identifiable character archetypes with the aim of stimulating much needed […]

- [Guest Radio Mix: Purple Radio Open Decks](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/guest-radio-mix-purple-radio-open-decks/): In July 2020 my friend InputJunkie invited me to broadcast a 1 hour Mint mix for Purple Radio‘s show ‘Open Decks’. Delving into my personal music collection, I pulled out 14 tracks across a selection of genres including music from Underworld, Leftfield, Stina Nordenstam, Ty and others. Making many of my selections in the midst of the global COVID-19 pandemic, tracks such as Black Dog’s ‘Mental Health Hotline’ reflects the trials of lockdown, Talvin Singh’s ‘Butterfly’ echoes a hopeful vision for the future and Ty’s ‘Wait a Minute’ commemorates the untimely death of the artist from COVID-19. The resultant mix […]

- [Feature: Slammer](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/feature-slammer/): When I was invited aboard the team for Slammer, it was to consult on the music/soundtrack, but this involvement soon grew to a producer and production designer role, amongst many others. The film itself sadly failed to live up to its aims and aspirations, but the sheer breadth and volume of content I created for the project was of note, as was shooting during the Covid pandemic. SynopsisWhen pioneering scientist Ann Waterman is kidnapped, becoming a human lab rat in a futuristic prison cell, she must spend the next year as a spectator, forced to confront her personal demons, decipher […]

- [Guest Radio Mix: Eclipsed](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/bloop-radio-eclipsed/): On Monday May 1st 2017, I had the pleasure of taking over the second hour of ‘Eclipsed‘, a radio show on London’s Bloop Radio, hosted by Xspance. It’s always fun to be invited on a radio show, and for Eclipsed I chose to offer a slightly autobiographical selection of tracks I’ve enjoyed over the past 30 years or so, from Kraftwerk’s ‘Tour de France’ (1983) up to Ochre’s ‘Rowing to the Riverhead’ (2017), with a little introduction to each selection. Following the live broadcast, the show has since been made available on Bloop’s Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/blooplondon/xspance-presents-eclipsed-w-mint A full track list from my […]

- [Remix: Christa Vi - "Long Way Home (Mint's Clockwork Funfair Remix)"](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/remix-christa-vi-long-way-home-mints-clockwork-funfair-remix/): Released on 30th July 2012, Christa Vi’s single “Long Way Home” features my ‘Clockwork Funfair’ remix of the title track. Christa Vi is an Australian / German Singer Songwriter, based in East London. She combines her folky, storytelling songwriting style with eclectic instrumentation, electronic elements and emotive vocals. Acoustic roots, 90′s melancholy but simultaneously being seduced by a bit of 80′s synth! My collaboration with her actually began during a chance meeting at a bar on the roof of a carpark in Peckham, South London. After some healthy musical discussion she invited me to remix one of her wonderful tracks, […]
- [Video Promo: "Looking Over The Parapet"](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/video-promo-looking-over-the-parapet/): Yesterday I posted a promo on YouTube for my forthcoming track entitled “Looking Over The Parapet”. Ultimately it’s a pretty simple video promo that I edited together myself, featuring a series of objects. As you’ll see if you watch it, the mood gradually changes over the course of the 3 minutes. The track is due for release in 2012 on Rednetic Recordings’ ‘One Point Three’ compilation. Release date currently TBC.
- [Music under my own name](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/music-under-my-own-name/): 2013 will see the first release of a track under my own name. My other projects as ‘Mint’ and half of ‘Biotron Shelf’ will continue, but I have been slowly (and ever more slowly) producing a body of work that doesn’t fit either of the styles of these two projects, so it seemed time to add another name to the fold. Whilst I could have chosen another invented name, I opted for my own. Why not eh? The track, entitled “Looking Over the Parapet” will be appearing on Rednetic Recordings as part of their compilation ‘One Point Three’, and is […]

The album’s artwork, which I also created, unifies the audio with an introduction to the story of The Metronomical Boy that I wrote to tie in with the album, as partly retold below… “In September 1932 the Norwegian Archaeologist Tor William Gudmundsen undertook an excavation near the Kharga Oasis, Egypt. The tomb he discovered had lain undisturbed since the time of the Pharaohs, and its central burial chamber contained the sarcophagus of […]
- [Album Release: "Cloud Bands and Arabesques"](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/album-release-cloud-bands-and-arabesques/): These 10 tracks began life with Wil and I collaborating in my London studio and grew to form our second album as Biotron Shelf. Field recordings made around the East End of London, in particular Victoria Park and Canary Wharf, formed the basis for many of the tracks. The sonic character and mood of these spaces informed the album: contrasting sites of culture and commerce; scenes of urban decay and pockets of pastoral tranquility; a vibrant clash of cultures, both ancient and modern. All these influences found their way into the musical and rhythmic elements of the tracks, which were […]

In the words of InputJunkie himself: “Rotations is an e.p. of remixed tracks produced by a very talented group of electronic artists that I’ve had the pleasure to get to know and enjoy their work over the last few years. Tentatively I asked each of them would they like to remix one of my tunes and boy have they delivered. I was knocked out by each and every one of these re-interpretations and I hope you are too. “ Tracklist Headwaltz (Mint’s […]

- [Album Release: "Cardboard Rocketships"](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/album-release-cardboard-rocketships/): My second studio album of tracks ranging from playful and cinematic to crunchy and beat-driven. The concept behind the album is primarily one of playful childlike adventures (hence the name) but with a few darker elements that underlie much of today’s childhood experience. Tracks such as Grace and Dorothy’s Song combine warm electronic sounds and playful nursery rhyme melodies with intricate stuttering beats, while I Don’t Kvetch, Keiji’s Dream, Aquarius and Shoes Too Big for Her Feet frame the melodies melodies within a heavier, more IDM and electro-inflected style, with euphoric synth lines, soaring string pads and crunchy drums.

- [EP Release: "Audubon"](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/ep-release-audubon/): My first release under the ‘Mint’ moniker also kicked off the release schedule for Boltfish Recordings. Audubon E.P uses twinkling melodies and irregular beats to evoke the open expanses of the american mid-west, and was inspired by the 3 month period I spent on a farm in the town of Audubon, Iowa. One of the EPs most notable tracks “Albert The Bull” derived its name from the town’s ‘claim to fame’, a huge concrete statue of a bull (affectionately named Albert), which not only harks back to the town’s historical roots as a cattle farming one, but also enabled it […]
- [About Mint](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/about-mint/): My musical production as Mint has always been based around strong melody, often using playful tunes, stuttering beats and drifting atmospheres. I’ve also occasionally delved into some heartfelt compositions with a more cinematic feel. Tracks such as ‘Albert the Bull’ on the first Boltfish Recordings release ‘Audubon’ exemplify my playful approach to this project. Solo releases and compilation tracks have appeared on various labels including The Ministry of Sound, Duotone Records, LacedMilk, Kahvi, Raw42 Music, Yuki Yaki, October Man, ClickClickDrone, Aerotone, Rednetic, U-Cover, Elpa , Sutemos and others – some still in existence, others long since defunct.

My events inspire imaginations and are an effective way to engage pupils and encourage them to read more.  In-person visits usually involve either an author talk/presentation (40 mins – 1hr session, including Q&A) that delves into inspiration, storytelling and worldbuilding and includes writing prompts for teachers to use after the session, or an author talk plus a single or multiple workshops (for smaller groups), depending on your setup and requirements.  Virtual visits last for thirty minutes and include an introduction, a reading and […]

- [Film](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/film/): Since early 2019 I’ve worked as a film producer, production designer and a few other roles in the film world. Most of my work has been on feature-length productions, but I’ve also been involved in short films. However, my exposure to the the world of filmmaking dates back much further, both behind the camera and as a location owner for numerous TV, film and commercial productions. As an avid consumer of film, animation and other such media, I’ve found the industry provides new challenges on a regular basis, which keeps things exciting and fresh. My IMDb profile shows more about […]
- [Writing](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/writing/): I write stories, primarily aimed at Middle Grade readers (age 9-12), featuring exciting adventure, science fiction, fantasy and more. I love creating characters and worlds that aim to flex a child’s imagination. I’ve also written screenplays and children’s picture books. I’ve studied with the Golden Egg Academy and been shortlisted and longlisted for competitions with Write Mentor, Chicken House Books and The Oxford Centre for Fantasy/Pushkin Books. My debut novel, published by Toller Press is ‘Underlings: The Spark Engine‘. This book delves into dystopian science fiction territory, following characters through a subterranean city riddled with secrets. Passing comparisons could be […]

- [Design](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/design/): I worked as a professional consultant and designer from 1996-2022, working in-house, freelance, with agencies and under the banner of my own company ‘Trickster‘. My work encompassed a broad range of projects for an even broader range of businesses and individuals. During that time I designed, built, created and consulted on: and a wealth of other print, digital and offline media. Usually each project involved some consultancy, conceptual work, project management, team management, meetings, presentations or just a little bit of technical know-how. I was often been asked to do a lot more than just design. I’ve worked with, or […]
- [Music](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/music-production/): My music production takes several shapes, but at some stage most of it ends up in a digital form. At the tender age of six I began learning the piano, and that has informed much of my musical development since. I’ve always enjoyed making, and where possible recording music, sounds and field recordings of sorts. As a child I spent hours making sounds and rhythms from household objects and recording them to tape. I was briefly in a band as a teenager (I played some bass guitar whilst really wanting to be a drummer), and have collaborated with friends and […]
- [About Me](https://murrayfisher.co.uk/about/): I live in a little village called Finchingfield in Essex, UK with my wife, daughter, a rambunctious dog and an unusually large cat. I have a degree in Fine Art, but since completing my formal education, my career was for some time as a digital designer and consultant, whilst running my own design company called Trickster. After over 20 years of that I moved on. In tandem I worked as a recording artist (as ‘Mint‘ and half of ‘Biotron Shelf‘ as well as ‘Murray Fisher‘). Whilst I still occasionally produce music, this has taken a back seat. From 2004-2015 I also ran […]
