  • Sep 2013 - Present

  Operations Manager for the world’s leading independent anti-piracy music company, as seen on the Google Transparency Report. We protect a huge variety of labels and artists, from fresh new start-ups to some of the largest music institutions in the world.At AudioLock we focus on providing a cutting-edge service to labels and artists alike, ensuring that releases are protected to the best standards. In particular I work closely with CEO Ben Rush, where we focus on refining the 24/7 automated Scanning & Takedown technology.Here's some topline on AudioLock:- Our automated anti-piracy service protects hundreds of cross-genre labels and artists, across five continents and 13 countries. We are also protecting sample libraries from various companies and developers.- Our clients include the likes of Warp, Mute, Ministry of Sound (UK & Australia) and artists like Tiesto, Goldfrapp and Katie Melua. - Google's Transparency Report ranks AudioLock as the world's most effective, independent, music-specific anti-piracy service for removing infringing content from it's pages. We rank overall as #3 in the world, out of over 28,000 reporters - but unlike those above us in the Report we only protect music and sample libraries.- Our clients employ AudioLock to remove piracy to their releases on Google and Bing. By removing this piracy client's legitimate buy-links to iTunes, Amazon, Beatport and their own websites etc are raised higher on search results, giving them more exposure to their users and fans, which in turn helps drive their sales higher by 5-25% (see testimonials) and chart positions.You can read what 50 leading indie labels think of our service on our testimonials page: http://www.audiolock.net/testimonialsFor further details about exactly how our system works, you can visit our FAQ page here:http://www.audiolock.net/frequently-asked-questions



Death Is The Navigator

• Guitarist

  • Aug 2014 - Jan 2018

  Death Is The Navigator is a new progressive metal band from Southampton. Our sound consists of a mix of pure thrashing aggression with doses of clean and screamed lyrics, topped off with some random madness; be it diving headfirst into a wash of ethereal clean sections, taking thrash ideas on more twists and turns than a drunken sailor, or swapping time signatures randomly for the hell of it. We enjoy a wide range of metal music and draw influences from many subgenres, mainly thrash, djent, progressive and death metal. https://soundcloud.com/deathisthenavigator/
