About me
I am from South-East London and am an accomplished saxophonist, pianist, music composer and producer. My most recent work has been writing as Nefer-T: https://www.nefer-t.com I write, record, sing and produce all my music myself from my home studio. I also play any additional piano and saxophone parts as well as some live bass. I also design all the album artwork for each release. As a saxophonist, I have performed with the prestigious Bristol Hornstars 2017-19 and received 87/100 in my extended performance study during undergrad and obtaining a first again for my 40 minute recital during my MA. I also have Grade 8 piano and regularly filled in for school house band rehearsals. During my masters i built my media composition website, NR Music: https://natrichards11.wixsite.com/website Again, I designed all album artwork and website graphics myself. I have recently turned my hand to writing occasional articles for The Pangean and formerly kept a personal pop music blog. I have also begun producing, writing, mixing and recording my own electronic/alternative music at home for an upcoming set of releases.

    SOL PARADISE
  • SEPARATION
    SEPARATIONThis is a breakup song I wrote before actually going through one and it became oddly prophetic of my experience. I had some amazing guitar playing provided by my good friend Sol Paradise which really added something magic to the track. Similar to my other material it focuses on the mental health component of life experiences. I'm most proud of incorporating the metaphor "we've been drifting apart like the pieces of Pangea" and my extended outro.
