Introducing: catskull (+ soundtrack announcement)
2025/12/19
subscribe to catskull: https://pod.link/1843773291 stream/purchase The Tower Finale Complete Score: https://tincanaudio.bandcamp.com/album/the-tower-finale-complete-score It's our final day in the studio here at Tin Can Audio. Thank you for listening to The Tower this year, and for being here for the final part of the series. We have one last release for you before we sign off for 2025. The soundtrack to The Tower Finale is now available to buy on the Tin Can Audio Bandcamp page. It features some of my favourite work on the series, bringing together all the motifs of the past 6 years. The Tower Finale Complete Score is now available to listen and purchase on Bandcamp. But before we fully sign off, we want to tell you about a show we've been really enjoying here at TCHQ. catskull is a new audio drama thriller from Andas Productions, the team behind the incredible Temujin and the DC High Volume Batman series. It is an adaptation of the award winning novel by Myle Yan Tay, catskull is a brilliant atmospheric neo-noir story that explores the violence simmering beneath an unforgiving city, with beautiful, immersive sound design bringing modern day Singapore to life. I really love this series, it's single narrator without really being a single narrator audio drama, and it very slowly and calmly draws you in with it's quiet brutality. It's an incredible example of what audio drama can be, created by one of the best production teams in the world right now. When we were making Land's End earlier this year and were grappling with the intricacies of a kissing scene in an audio drama, Andas Productions' work on Temujin was our high watermark on how to do intimacy in audio form. catskull is available now wherever you get your podcasts, at time of recording there are 8 episodes out, so plenty to get your teeth into. Stick around after this to hear the very first episode. Thank you for listening to The Tower, and for coming with us on this journey.  Happy holidays

Transcript: https://www.tincanaudio.co.uk/post/coming-soon-the-tower-finale A two part special, coming November 2025 Six years ago this week we released the first ever episode of The Tower. A lot has changed since then, I had no idea that this weird little idea for a story would take me down the path it has. I'm incredibly grateful to every single one of you who has come with us on this journey, you have all been very patient, and it is an honour to be able to share a trailer for the final part of this series. Also, from today, right up until we finish the series, over on the Tin Can Audio twitch channel, I'm going to be hosting some listen alongs and behind the scenes streams of The Tower every Monday and Wednesday, including the day this releases, at 8pm UK time, 3pm Eastern. If you're just joining us or you want to do a full series relisten before the finale comes out, this is a great way to experience the show before we close the book on it. Tune in here: twitch.tv/tincanaudio We hope you enjoy, and thank you for listening.

Available Now - The Tower Part III Original Score
2023/05/18
Bandcamp: https://bit.ly/435wzAp Spotify: https://bit.ly/45oXfyn This is just a quick announcement to say that the soundtrack for Part 3 of The Tower is now available to pre-order from the Tin Can Audio Bandcamp page. If you pre-order the album you'll get my favourite track on the album, 'These Lifeless Things' right away, that's the track playing behind me. The full album will be released on Bandcamp and on most streaming services on May 21st. I've put a pre-save link in the shownotes. The score for Part 3 was some of the most challenging, but also some of the most rewarding, music I've ever had the pleasure of making. It ties together a lot of musical themes and threads from Part 1 & 2 while also introducing some of its own sounds and motifs. It also has a lot of very, very tasty synth textures and we played around with a lot of tape effects with this soundtrack. I'm very proud of it, I think it's some of the best music from the series. Thank to everyone who has listened and continues to listen to this series and its soundtrack. I can't quite believe we've made it this far! We are in the process of figuring out the final part of the series. I don't really have any news other than that but I thought it was important to let you know that there is going to be another part. That will hopefully be appearing sooner rather than later but, in the meantime, please enjoy the rest of this track and thank you so much for listening, and thank you so much for being here.

Chill Beats To Climb Impossible Towers To - Full Mix
2022/03/02
Buy the EP: tincanaudio.bandcamp.com/album/chill-beats-to-climb-impossible-towers-to-ep Support The Tower on Ko-Fi: ko-fi.com/tincanaudio A collection of lo-fi remixes of some of the music from The Tower. This special mix also incorporates additional sound design from the series to create an immersive listening experience. This started out as a joke on the Tin Can Audio Patreon Discord and then, during a week I was recovering from the flu, I started playing around with some of the music and found that it actually wasn't the worst idea. This was a lot of fun to put together, and I hope you enjoy listening to it! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
