- Those Who Were Dancing: a publication about music and rootsI am so excited to have just launched my new music publication! We look at public performance of musicality, collective singing and genres enmeshed with today’s sound. Where did it come from? What does it mean now? We investigate self-expression and the ancestral voices remaining in today’s commercialised and saturated music industry. The publication is run by writers, multi-disciplinary artists and (unofficial) musical anthropologists, Rebecca W Morris and Lydia Beardmore. Subscribe to
- Musicians Resurrecting Silent Cinema in Andalusia: CinetonesA documentary about Cinetones, which is a project of live music scores played over silent cinema, performed, conceived and preserved by Andalusian musicians Elena Jiménez and Manuel Méijome.

- Delirious Dancing: the Diabolical Discipline of Flamenco BuleríasMy publication, Those Who Were Dancing, is run in collaboration with artist, writer and anthropologist, Lydia Beardmore. It is a labour of love, strife, a careful sorting through of music archive, culture and history to get to the gems that lie beneath, connecting ideas that perhaps hadn't been considered before. This is my latest -- about the secrets, frustrations and elations of the world of flamenco, in a small town in the south of Spain. Follow our publication if you enjoy it -- we apprec
- "Learning to Love Record Shops - From the 90s 'til Now" by Lydia BeardmoreI am editor-in-chief for Those Who Were Dancing, a publication about music anthrolopology and roots.
