HOUNDTRACK has been aired on BBC 1 & featured on Spotify’s lofi beats, Brain Food & Electronic Focus.

"Never Like The First Time" is about chasing a sense of relief and purpose that I used to find in turbulent things, places and people. It’s a song reminiscing on the idea of my past self, and the reasons I was always on the hunt for something more intense or destructive. This song is brutally honest . I felt defined by a lifestyle I couldn’t escape. Realising at the core of what I was chasing was connection, unity and positive relationships. I just didn’t know what that looked like at the time. - Hutch

"Good Morning, Good Day (Holiday Mix)” is a joyful, uplifting anthem celebrating the warmth and togetherness of the holiday season. This festive version brings sparkling bells, cozy harmonies, and gospel-inspired energy to mornings everywhere. Sung by Megan Piphus, Sesame Street’s first Black female puppeteer, the track reminds listeners (young and old) that every day is a gift worth celebrating. It’s the perfect soundtrack for hot cocoa mornings, car rides, and classroom sing-alongs alike.

Need Some Air is an instrumental album shaped by breath, space, and the quiet clarity that follows noise. It captures that feeling when you step outside, the sky expands, and something in you lets go. Each track builds a spacious, emotional world that feels grounded yet weightless. This is music for coming back to yourself. A reminder to slow down, breathe, and find stillness inside something bigger. Perfect for lofi chill, ambient jazz, cinematic soul, and mindful instrumental playlists.
