Stick Or Twist

by admin on July 19, 2022 in News • 0 Comments

About a year ago I made this song for a Chinese AI project run by record label Make A Dream Records, and I finally thought I’d share now I’ve made a little lyric/karaoke video. It’s on all the usual Spotify, Apple Music etc. The idea behind the project was for me to feed some photos/songs/words/genres/BPM etc into an AI machine in China and see what midi keyboard melodies it came up with, then I took those, played around with them and made it into a full song and production. Was hoping to get out to China to promote it but sadly that didn’t happen. Anyway, it’s called Stick Or Twist and I thought it’s time I shared it, so here we go. Cheers!

Press Release: Ally Kerr to release first single from cinematic instrumental album “Soundtracks” on 23 October 2020

by admin on October 14, 2020 in News • 0 Comments

Shimmering, powerful, atmospheric electric guitars meet soaring emotional strings and pounding percussion in The Light Inside – an uplifting slice of cinematic instrumental music for fans of Sigur Rós from “sparkling tunesmith” (Metro) Ally Kerr.

Kerr’s music has amassed millions of streams globally and taken him on tours of Europe and Asia (most recently a second headlining tour in China in 2019) thanks to Netflix exposure and word of mouth.

Now the Scot now embarks on a new adventure – composing emotional, cinematic, orchestral music to compliment his singer songwriter output with the forthcoming release of album “Soundtracks” on 27 November 2020.

Soundtracks is a 10-track album of emotive and evocative cinematic instrumental music inspired by past masters such as Ennio Morricone and John Barry, modern greats like Max Richter and Ólafur Arnalds, as well as post-rock influences such as Sigur Rós.
