Todd
Horton has been composing music for over
twenty years. Always seeking new ways to
connect his varied musical influences, his
writing stretches genre boundaries. Whether
writing for film, studio or live performances,
there is a pure and organic quality to his
compositions.
In 2007, Horton
composed the score for a documentary film by
Ed Pincus and Lucia Small, entitled "The
Axe In The Attic", which had its world
premiere at the New York Film Festival. The
director's desire for an unconventional scoring
approach posed new and difficult challenges
to Horton; to support the story and narrative
without imposing how the audience should feel
in any way. Select
clips can be seen and heard below.
Much
of Horton's writing
for his own groups
is a blend of Jazz,
Rock, Funk and
African music styles.
The list of mp3
samples below includes
tracks recorded
on various albums
where his original
music has appeared.
Also included are

library of "experimental" work
created in his
project studio
(labeled TH library). For
