His artistic journey started in Cardiff, where he ran a small music studio in the mid-1980s dedicated to experimental and electronic music. This led him to the local filmmaking scene as a sound recordist and motivated him to enrol in the UK's National Film and Television School in 1988. After graduation, he worked as a location sound recordist, editor, and re-recording mixer until he joined Videosonics (1995, London). In this studio, he first worked with Lynne Ramsay (Ratcatcher, 1999) in a collaboration that has lasted till today. With her, he has designed his most known works (Morvern Callar, 2001; We Need to Talk About Kevin, 2011; You Were Never Really Here, 2017).
