Hello, I'm Lawry.

​

I write and produce music, and work as a sound designer across film, theatre, animation, installation and digital spaces.

Alongside commissioned projects, I have released music under the name Birdengine — a long-running project rooted in atmosphere, memory and emotion.

​

More recently, I have begun releasing instrumental work under my own name, creating immersive sound worlds built from field recordings, synthesis, found sounds and processing.

​

That work feeds directly into my sound design practice. Whether composing music or designing sound, I am interested in how audio can shape space, suggest narrative and evoke emotional responses. Much of my work sits between music and sound design, blurring the distinction where useful — from subtle environmental textures to more foregrounded sonic environments.

​

My approach is detail-oriented and story-led, often exploring the intersection of atmosphere, place, memory and psychology. I am particularly interested in creating sound that feels lived-in, tactile and emotionally resonant.
