Music From the Series: "Take Me Home"

Some of you may remember last week we took a trip to the Caribbean to ring in the 1992 New Year. Here we have a quote from writer, director, composer (and a lot of other things) W.D. Stevens about that particular story:

"To be honest, the story came about purely because I was studying the history of music in a subject at uni and we came to reggae and we'd done some in our ensembles and it was just so fun that I just wanted a reason to write a reggae song - not that you need a reason, really. But I thought 'let's set a story in the Caribbean'. Just to do something differently and an excuse to have a party. Since it was a New Years story I wanted to have a reggae version of Auld Lang Syne which I found by an artist called Dillinger. Then I wanted a well-known song to have covered and, since it was about the Doctor and his friends (plus being a huge Beatles fan myself) I chose With a Little Help From My Friends by Ellis Island. And that just left the middle song which I got to write which is called Take Me Home written and performed by yours truly. Modestly, of course."

And here is that song. Enjoy!

An Abundance of Covers!

Happy February, people!

We've been very busy over the past month recording and editing and doing all of the things and now, to show off what we've been up to we have covers! First up we have the first episode of a series starring Scott McAteer as the Doctor with Caitlin Yolland as his companion Cecelia in The Art of Immortality.

And after that, coming later this month we see Tom Denham returning as the Doctor with his companions Luna (Nari Riis) and Penelope (Elice Rebecca) in the anthology release The Great Gameshow. This release has some wonderful guest stars in Steve Carnell, Lore Burns and Hayman Kent.

But that's not all - we have the covers for the first three episodes of the next season of the Robert Lloyd adventures coming in March/April. The first, Terror of Fear is written by Mr Lloyd himself and guest stars Chris Broadstock as Luke Smith. Next up is The Illusionist guest starring the incredible Matthew Hadgraft. And after that is La Cage aux Reine with a huge ensemble cast consisting of Suzy Markovski, Chris Lawson, Vicki Kyriakakis, David Innes and Hayman Kent.

It's going to be a fun ride!

Illusionist Productions: 2014 Soundtrack

Hello to all!

It's a very different one today as our release is not a story but a soundtrack. To celebrate our first year of productions (though we've got a couple more on their way to you with Hickory Banes and a couple of other surprises), we're releasing a soundtrack of all the original music we've used this year. And we have a cover wonderfully designed by Sam Woodhall and Tom Denham.

Thank you all for listening and have a wonderful Christmas!
