As a sonic experimentalist, he has developed his own system of ambitronics which utilises looping technology to create canvases of sound on flutes and saxes that are then woven into the music he makes. Such music, performed on the alto flute, was first released on Theo’s acclaimed album Slow Life which was credited as the inspiration behind the Jonathan Coe novel “The Rain before it Falls” Theo has developed this technique and incorporated it into his work with Robert Fripp, David Sylvian, and Cipher (Past Lives, 8 silent film soundtracks, many UK tours and 3 CDs)

Theo has also acted as bandleader and manager, booking agent, record producer, tour manager.
