Started in December 2024.  Once again, I spent a few months getting a new Logic template put together, and this is also my first set of recordings moving to Neural DSP’s set of quite frankly astounding plugins (so no more DI’d Amp or stock plugins from […]
Lockdown was a small collection of songs I managed to put together during that insanely odd and exceptional time we all lived through in 2020. I started out with the intent of a full ten song collection, but it never really happened. I quite like the […]
Inside the Outside was started in Summer 2017, but dragged on for few years.  Call it ‘musicians block’ but life did take a few more curve balls, and actually, i was out enjoying it a lot more. In Spring 2020, I decided with ‘Lockdown’ to end […]
Haunted was the longest I have taken to complete a set of songs to date – lots of changes and other interesting things going on in life, let this take more time and be more relaxed.  Some cool tracks on here, and some others not so […]
This collection of songs started into 2015, following a 6 month hiatus, and took over 12 months to complete, which is unusually long (considering I usually do two sets of 10 a year).  “Take What You Need” was created during a fairly miserable point during huge change […]
“Night and Day” is a new collection of songs started in December 2014.  Though I am just starting out, I am keen to do something harder and a bit rockier than some of the melancholic sounds of the past few songs – more upbeat and maybe […]
  Song number 5 on One Unusual Suspect.   Nothing particularly complex about this one. [audio:http://www.morks.net/music/One%20Unusual%20Suspect/05%20Longing%20But%20Knowing.mp3|artists=Mark J Turner|titles=Longing But Knowing]   Enjoy.  
“The Third Floor” will be my eleventh album, making it 90 original songs and 10 cover’s over 4 years – which is quite some output. Whilst I’m quite proud of some of my work, I want to try and evolve my sound with the eleventh album, […]
Tears to Distraction was the first collection produced entirely in Logic Pro, moving from Garageband which I’d used for all my previous recording work.  I’d actually had Logic setup for a year or so previously, but quite frankly, had never really got to grips with it […]
Pressure (2010) seemed to take an age to complete- but in the end I was quite pleased with it – particularly “Surface Detail” and “Elusive” which have quite a complex sound to them.  Meanwhilst, “Song of Susannah” was quite a departure for me, with almost a […]
Tortured Soul was the name of a band I was in as a schoolboy, that never really took off, but for which, I had great ambitions 🙂 This is still I believe, one of my most accomplished works – the song writing seemed to come so […]
Distant Journey was completed 14th February 2010.  The intention of this collection is a progressive rock/metal extravaganza, with absolutely no compromise.  The first song, produced in late 2009, is a real synth and guitar lead overload track – complex, intricate, fusion, jazz, metal, thrash, rock and […]
Edge Of the World was completed in 2008 – My favourite track on this collection is “My Naked God” which is a fast moving rock track, with a nice harmony.  The overall sound is fairly similar to “Many Ways To Be” so far, the only significant difference […]
Inversions began in early 2008, and was completed quickly.   I really started to branch out trying a variety of different styles – with a particular focus on Progressive Rock styles such as those of “Dream Theater”, one of my favourite bands.  Inversions worked out really […]
