It's really great to welcome an ever growing number of Who heads to the site. This month I have posted a brand new clip from Peter Davidson's reading of Castrovavla which I hope you're going to enjoy over on the Doctor Who Page

While here at Meon it's been another exciting month. A Meon composition has been featured in an ad campaign for the UK daily newspaper The Telegraph.
The ads ran on Virgin Radio and featured the classical piece Enchanted Treasure. The track also features in the multi award winning short film, Nemisis and is available to download from Shockwave-Sound
A version entitled Cave Of Enchanted Treasure opens the new album Music For Films and can be downloaded for domestic use from CDBaby

This month We're excited to announce that Meon's Simon Power has a brand new 2010 album release over on the download site CDBaby. The album, Music For Films, has 20 tracks all available to download for only 99p each!
Tracks include Enchanted Treasure (recently featured on Virgin Radio's Telegraph ads campaign) and Celtic Requiem (soundtrack to loads of short films, YouTube and Vimeo videos across the web).

"I'm really excited about finally being able to release these tracks."
Says Simon Power, "Each one has a special meaning or an attachment to a certain period."
Power has been composing film scores and royalty free music for a number of years as composer Elliot Simons and before that had releases on the Champion, Sony and Tidy Trax labels. "All these tracks have been produced for use on films, TV, radio, internet, that sort of thing. So lots of different moods of music are represented. There's everything from classical & chill-out to Hi-life & Ska."
The album is posted exclusively on CDBaby until the Spring.
These tracks are for domestic listening only. Our royalty free music is hosted by Shockwave-Sound and a number of other royalty free sites.
