There are moments that don’t translate into words: pressure, noise, restlessness, low mood, or a sense of being slightly off.
Music has always been a way to move through those moments—not by fixing them, but by staying with them long enough for something to shift.
Lost Keys grew out of that relationship with sound. It exists because listening can sometimes do what language can’t.
-
Most listening experiences are built around preference: genre, mood labels, recommendations, or optimisation. Lost Keys isn’t.
Sessions aren’t designed to keep your attention, play to trends, or predict what you’ll like. They are shaped by internal state, by what’s needed in the moment rather than what’s expected.
This makes the experience grounded, personal, and less directive. The same session can land differently depending on when you return to it. That change, and noticing the change, is part of the practice.
-
Each mix begins with experience. The feeling comes first; a state, an energy, a moment - and the music follows, creating a space to inhabit.
Sessions are then organised into Experience Rooms, helping the listener orient themselves based on that state.
-
Lost Keys is a way of listening: noticing your internal state, responding to it, and moving through it with sound.
Each session begins from a real need; energy, stillness, unpredictability. Track Notes capture the headspace behind the music, not to guide you, but to document the moment it was made and orient your listening experience.
Lost Keys is built to allow movement, not resist it. Noticing that movement is the practice.
-
Lost Keys isn’t therapy. It doesn’t offer advice, answers, or promises.
It’s simply a space to spend time with music, to notice what’s happening inside you, and to return if it feels familiar or useful. No fixing. No forcing. No expectation.
-
Lost Keys isn’t a finished body of work. It’s a snapshot in time, shaped by moments as they happen.
Older mixes don’t stay fixed, they shift and evolve as your relationship with them changes. What once felt grounding may later feel distant. What once felt chaotic may later make sense.
The work is organised into three Experience Rooms, each one reflecting a different way music can meet you.
You don’t choose based on genre.
You choose based on recognition.
-
A slower, inward space for emotional processing and integration. These sessions create room to feel what’s present, without rushing it. Designed for reflection, honesty, and quiet regulation.
-
A charged, immersive space for ignition and momentum. These sessions build intensity and rhythm — created for when energy needs to rise, shift, or break through. Mobilising, not chaotic.
-
An outward-facing space for articulation and embodied energy. These mixes support movement, focus, and creative flow — designed for when something inside you is ready to be expressed.
Alongside each mix are Track Notes. They’re not explanations or guides. They don’t tell you what to feel or how to listen.
They capture the headspace and context the mix came from. A record of the moment it was made. Over time, they become a way to see how your relationship with the same music can change.

Behind The Keys
Track
I began making mixes that reflected internal states, not genres, trends, or audience expectations. Each session captured something I couldn’t put into words: restlessness, calm, energy, clarity. Listening back became a way to re-enter moments in time, to feel honestly what I felt then, and notice how it shifted over time. Gradually, the mixes became a living journal of experience: unfiltered, unedited, alive.
I use music, not just listen but use it to feel.
