I write music about people. Topics in my music usually involve the texture of human relationships, most recently the relationship between performer and audience. I'm interested in clarity, in directness, but not necessarily simplicity. I like using familiar sounds to unusual effects. I'm inspired by camp, by disarming straightforwardness, and by art's capacity to imagine the unimaginable.

David Nunn is a composer based in London. His music is often immersive and minimal; it acts as escapism for the listener, and is characterised by textures which seem to revolve and rotate as if in a kaleidoscope. It is sometimes introspective; at other times it is joyous and chaotic. Through his music, he seeks to examine the subtleties of the world we inhabit, and to think on the intricacies of the relationships we have with each other in a world which is growing increasingly uneasy.
