I've gained some really useful knowledge in creating music for this project" - Lucas (MT Apprentice 2022) 

"There is a lot to gain from the Apprentice scheme and simply doing what I love, writing music, is a win in my book! - Harry (MT Apprentice 2022)

Celebrating the MT Apprentice Scheme

If you're an editor, you've probably been there: eyes glazed, headphones on, trawling through hundreds of production music tracks trying to find 

not too epic, not too bland, emotionally rich but not overpowering. It's a universal frustration, especially when you’re up against a deadline and just need music that 

At MediaTracks, we’ve been hearing this pain point loud and clear. So we asked ourselves: what if we tackled it head-on?

 is the result - an album created specifically to make editors’ lives easier. Developed through a unique collaboration between composer Evie Kitching and editor Becca Luck, it was designed to cut through the noise and deliver a focused toolkit of music that enhances storytelling without overshadowing it.

“I work in sport and I’m sent a lot of playlists meant for big epic montages,” says Becca. “But in reality what I’m looking for day to day are these storytellers that help paint emotions in a subtler way.”

That search for subtlety, for musical cues that don’t shout but still speak volumes, shaped every decision on this album. And it’s why the working relationship between Becca and Evie became the heart of the project.

“Participating in this project has made me realise I really need to widen my vocabulary when describing music,” Becca admits. “I’ve found myself using ‘neutral’ and ‘not too big’ far too often!”

Evie took this creative brief and ran with it. Drawing from reference tracks and working closely with Becca’s feedback, she composed a collection of cinematic, emotionally intelligent pieces that blend classical instrumentation with contemporary production.

“The collaborative process gave me valuable insight into exactly what an editor is looking for,” says Evie. “Using reference tracks and video clips, I had to envision myself as the editor - considering how the music would sit beneath dialogue but still subtly reflect emotional shifts.”

The result is a suite of eight tracks that feel coherent but tonally distinct. From moments of quiet perseverance to soaring hope, 

 offers a nuanced emotional arc tailored to modern storytelling.

“Evie has been the perfect match for me,” says Becca. “She writes really beautiful harmonies, and I’ve been sad at times to ask her to make some deliciously yummy chords more ‘neutral’ and less interesting - because I know I need slightly pared back chord progressions to sell the narratives I work on.”

Evie, for her part, embraced the challenge with curiosity and creativity.

“My favourite part of composing this album was being able to steer each of the eight tracks in different tonal directions,” she says. “The album felt like a journey in itself.”

And for Becca, that journey is far from over.

“As I move into working on a busy summer of sport, I’m very excited to be armed with a new album of music to dip into,” she says. “It’s also great because I don’t need to worry about finding the words to describe it now.”

Classical music is often seen as a symbol of high-culture and sophistication, but for those outside of its inner circle it remains a mysterious, complicated and exclusive world. With the launch of MT Classics, a label by MediaTracks in collaboration with CRD Records and Pitch Perfect music consultancy, Classical music is undergoing a transformation. Our aim is to make the genre more accessible and less intimidating for creatives across visual media.

Classical repertoire available now as 90-second tracks, along with cutdowns and stings

Meticulous grouping of the tracks by moods, rather than by composer name.

Replacing the original catalogue names e.g ‘Opus 27, No.2’ (Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata) or ‘BWV 992’ (Bach’s compositions) with descriptive titles such as ‘Symphonic Glory’ or ‘Mother’s Loss’

This label demystifies Classical masterpieces, making them essential tools for enhancing your visual storytelling on TV, film, podcasts, socials and more.

Leeds Conservatoire has a national and international reputation for creativity and innovation, and for being a truly contemporary specialist teaching institution. Its staff and industry partners are at the cutting edge of their creative disciplines, and its students are encouraged and supported to explore their individual artistic identities in an environment that is rich in diversity and free of aesthetic and stylistic limitations.

This practical, two-day event was open to current students across all courses at the conservatoire and recent graduates.

Mentors provided input and support throughout the writing sessions, and as the camp drew to a close attendees were invited to share their works in progress and reflect on their experience.
