Press Reviews “James Compton is a master composer who has the uncanny ability to take an idea from a choreographer or director of film and develop music to perfectly fill the notion. His music speaks clearly in terms of his technical abilities and takes the listener across the bridge between head and heart. Unlike many composers of electronic music, James Compton’s music is full of warmth, sensitivity and individuality.” Janey Niles, Choreographer
