Before the funk, soul, disco (and much more) of his musical alter-ego took hold, Gibbons aspired to be a film composer, growing up on the scores of John Barry, John Williams, Thomas Newman and, more recently, David Holmes, Daniel Pemberton and Ludwig Göransson. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The material I put out under my own name is designed to scratch the itch I’ve always had of writing music to picture,” says Gibbons. “A film composer was what I wanted to be – I was obsessed with it for a number of years. I actually thought the Lack of Afro material would be a side project or even a distraction. It ended up being the other way around.” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere ‘The Last Bastion’ scored a film that has never existed, ‘Music For Motion Pictures’ takes a different route. It isn’t tied to any picture at all, but plays like one anyway - charting a real relationship track by track. “It’s a soundtrack to a period of time that happened in my life,” Gibbons explains. “It’s not a film – we didn’t record any visuals of what happened – but it’s a musical journal, an audio diary if you will. Each track relates to certain events that happened in \u0026amp; around a relationship I had.” \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnown for close to two decades as Lack of Afro — Adam Gibbons celebrated the final chapter of that part of his career with his biggest ever UK headline tour in November of last year. A multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer, he built the project into one of UK funk and soul's defining names across multiple albums, singles and remixes amassing over 200 million streams and placements on networks including HBO, ABC, Sony Pictures, BBC, ITV, Sky and Warner Brothers, plus ad campaigns for Dyson, Google, Spotify, and Adidas. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 Saw You On TV\u003cbr\u003e2 Making Playlists\u003cbr\u003e3 Black Coffee\u003cbr\u003e4 Hidden Dinners\u003cbr\u003e5 Dripping In Chemistry\u003cbr\u003e6 Does Your Boyfriend Know?\u003cbr\u003e7 Latin Ping\u003cbr\u003e8 Eddie Redmayne\u003cbr\u003e9 For The Long Term\u003cbr\u003e10 Gone\u003cbr\u003e11 No Phone Call, No Answers\u003cbr\u003e12 Anna Keeps The Artwork\u003cbr\u003e13 Avoidant 24\/7\u003cbr\u003e14 Alfie's Reprise\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BASTION MUSIC GROUP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47860689207452,"sku":"BMG037CD","price":12.35,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/2_526f608c-29f6-4b76-a391-7d78ad88fad9.webp?v=1791666975","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/adam-gibbons-music-for-motion-pictures-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
