A self confessed foley and Spitfire Audio fanatic, Jemima’s musical heroes include Aphex Twin, Depeche Mode, Hans Zimmer, Jon Hopkins, Massive Attack, Max Richter, Metallica, Nils Frahm, Ninja Tracks, Ólafur Arnalds, Oliver Patrice Weder, Phillip Glass and Rival Consoles - to name but a few and in no particular order. Deeply inspired by the landscapes of cinematic, electronic, experimental, downtempo, ambient and neo-classical music - Jemima draws much inspiration from being surrounded by nature, whilst subliminal field recordings of whichever part of the world she finds herself in, often find their way embedded into her tracks somewhere.

Being a sensitive and receptive soul means Jemima is constantly absorbing stimuli around her (both consciously and unconsciously) - so as with anything in life, influences are never one thing, but the juxtaposition of many. Born in Camden and growing up in a household with two non verbal siblings meant her sensitivity to feel, understand and communicate through micro nuances and unconventional forms started well before she could even walk and talk - though it wouldn’t be until many years later that she would fully come to understand just how important a role communicative musicality had played in the lives of her and her siblings.

As a person, Jemima’s fundamental principles are rooted in environmentalism and Japanese psychology. One of her ongoing projects outside of creating music is turning 40 acres of farmland into a biosphere and renovating the adjacent 300 year old run down property into a carbon neutral oasis. Her approach to life is honour, respect, kindness, justice, transparency, loyalty, courage, excellence, consistency and to find the beauty in all things (regardless of it’s appearance). As a small child, the first thing she wanted to be when she grew up was a samurai - and in fact during her 2011/12 reconstructive years, her journey to becoming a black belt in katana (the sword of the samurai) awarded her enormous focus and mindfulness to re-evaluate, accept, change and grow - whilst living by the code of bushido in this busy world of consumerism and so many self-serving egos, feels more important and essential every day.

If you have reached this far down my page - then thank you loyal reader! That was a lot of words and I promise if you decide to hit the sign up button, follow my blog (coming soon) or head over to follow me on Insta, you will meet the slightly less formal side of Jem. A side who loves to laugh, who has 9 pet sheep, who can be both the loudest person in the room but also the quietest, who is an Airbnb Superhost, who in this day and age of technology and supposed wisdom will never cease to be amazed by the delinquencies of the general public and total abuse of those in power…..but whose day is absolutely made, by all the things which make humanity sparkle.

As always…much more to say, much more to play…..but in the meantime, thank you for visiting my site and for listening to my music - I hope you like what you have read and heard. Much love xx
