Simon Power composes Sync for games, TV ads and films under the studio name, Dream Valley Music.
His compositions have appeared on campaigns for Audi, Braun and the Renault Trezor as well as in hit TV shows like 'Escape to The County' and 'I'm a Celebrity...'
He has cues on games by Halo producers, Bungie and also composed theme & levels music for Red Ball 4 which now has over 100 million downloads.
He has had commercial releases on Banco De Gaia's Ambient Electronica label, Disco Gecko. As well as legacy releases of his 'legendary' Marine Boy project that gained airplay on Kiss FM and The John Peel Show 30 years ago and has recently been picked up again by super cool Scottish label, Craigie Knowes.
Skylax Records in France have picked up the baton in 2021 and intend to release more Marine Boy tracks including some remastered Marine Boy demos from the early 90's.
"It's great to have this renewed interest in my music from 1991," says Power, "and it proves my theory that music is very much a cyclical thing that can swing back in your favour at any time during your career."
Meantime, cult PlayStation games producers have included a 6 year old DVM track in their 2021 release, Five Night's at Freddies: Security Breach.
"When we recorded the track, the singer Daisy was still at school and her Dad drove her to all the studio sessions. Now she's early 20's and really enjoying all the attention from Five Night's at Freddies loyal fan base, which it must be said are largely young males!"
I'm so happy because she's an exceptional singer and even though the song was intentionally quite a novelty, she sung it with total commitment, and that's what the game producer's have picked up on. In the game, it represents one of those Reservoir Dogs 'Stuck in The Middle' moments. Pure terror set against a catchy pop song. Very effective!"
All of Dream Valley Music's Sync compositions have recently been released to streaming services on 12 albums with titles like, 'Ultimate Battlezone', 'Wicked Little Symphonies' and 'The Strangeness of Beauty'.
