I have no idea what’s going to happen next. That uncertainty turns out to be more useful than clarity. Read my latest Substack here: f.mtr.cool/hasinatpch

Wow - curiously proud of this! I know I sent a lot of audio files this year but....Jeez!

Emma Clarke @emmabclarke.bsky.social · 04/12/2025

I love watching the skies over Manchester changing across the day from my loft hidey-hole. I can just about see the hills on a clear day...but not today. The perfect kind of day for scoping out a new piece of music about apocalypse messaging!

Vimto with Bacardi and a splash of lemon juice smells EXACTLY like Bailey’s. That’s all I’ve got to offer.

I have to say, I'm weary of The Algorithm. I'm seeing lots of stuff about crafting social media updates that will please The Algorithm with the hope it might reward us with visibility. Honestly, I just want to do my work and share bits of it along the way in a way that reflects who I am.

Emma Clarke @emmabclarke.bsky.social · 22/09/2025

A different kind of day today. I'm in Manchester City Centre working in a converted mill. Such a beautiful space.

Emma Clarke @emmabclarke.bsky.social · 18/09/2025

It's a mixed bag today in the studio at Clarke Gables! I'm kicking off this morning with character voices for a much-loved children's animation title (will tell you all about it when I can), and this afternoon I'm voicing ads for a luxury vehicle manufacturer. Va-va-vrooom!

Emma Clarke @emmabclarke.bsky.social · 12/09/2025

Well this is novel isn't it? I don't have to be in bed at 8 o'clock to get up at 3.30 am to do a Saturday Breakfast show! So I'm going to have a massive takeaway...then I'm going to watch a film. Tomorrow, I'll be up at a normal time to clean my house...while listening to Radio 3!

Emma Clarke @emmabclarke.bsky.social · 11/09/2025

Had my PhD review today at @rncmlive.bsky.social! I'm now past the halfway point! Trying to savour every moment. Doing my PhD is such a precious, wonderful experience.

Emma Clarke @emmabclarke.bsky.social · 08/09/2025

Today I'm working at RNCM - Royal Northern College of Music on a project with National Trust. I've composed some music for an immersive visitor experience for a historic property.

Tonight will be the first Friday night in ages where I don't have to be in bed by 8. I’m on holiday from my Radio 3 Saturday Breakfast show this week, which means a full weekend off too! What should I do? I've forgotten how to do weekends!
