Flic's Sounds

'Flicsounds' started out as a portfolio site to showcase audio production projects. I've condensed the best bits into this page for fellow Audio Explorers.

Lockdown 2020 A Bird's Eye View

This was written in 2020, during the first lockdown. The real one! I was working as a key worker for our Music shop, where I helped our Mail Order team. On my commute I started to notice what I could hear. I also noticed the places where we can't normally hear much because of traffic or volume of people. I decided to record it and the poem was born. The poem is intended to be listened to with headphones, maybe in a dark room, however if you would like to see a visual version, you can see it on my YouTube channel, FlicSounds.

Huge thanks to: Leanne Hart, Narrator; Tim Hearn, Pigeon; Andrew Blackborrow, Seagull.

Christmas Album

Out of Bethlehem
Produced December 24th, 2017.

This was my debut album and dedicated entirely to my fiancé, now husband, Adam Wilson. The album features Johnny Tyers on trumpet and all tracks are arranged and recorded by myself using a 'Tascam' Voice recorder.

For the 'Big Screen'...

'Ode to Beethoven' was written as part of a short film about the character, 'Captain Marryat', written and directed by Alan Fox. You can see and hear it in the short film below at 8m29.

'Moon Boy' - This soundtrack was written as part of the opening sequence for a short animation.

Speech and Drama

A Morning with Isacc the Mouse was produced as a fun, short story, while studying a masters in Radio Production.

I had an idea to produce 3 minute stories, this was the first and based on the concept of money growing on trees.

I recorded my housemates while studying and produced a segment about the food my peers enjoyed.

An example of news being read during the pandemic. At the start of 2020, I began producing 'Folk with Flic' on Wave. You can hear some shows in full on my soundcloud page.

Community Radio
Over the years I have been in and out of community radio (where time permits). I started out in Lancaster, 2011, with a show called 'Flic in the Box', where I got the radio bug. I was part of Hope FM in Bournemouth, BCFM in Bristol and then Wave community Radio in Weston- super- Mare, from 2020 - 2023.
