C.3.3. by Pocket Lint

C.3.3. is a musical journey through the life of Oscar Wilde – the glories, the scandals and the pain – with each track representing a specific time. Little vignettes or windows into moments, almost like a series of comics panels.
Oscar Wilde was one of my first big creative influences. I was smitten upon reading Dorian and proceeded to voraciously read everything through the rest of my teens. The opening track of C.3.3. owes its main melody to that time as it was part of my A-Level music coursework. I have long intended to do that piece justice and this is the result.
I was delighted earlier this year that Vicky agreed to collaborate on the project and her enthusiasm for it really got me the over the line because this work had been ripped up and abandoned more times than I care to remember.
The titles for the songs are taken from Wilde’s own work, newspaper reports from the time and in one exception, my imagination.

"Pocket Lint delivers the goods again on 'From the Depths'. A dark drone and corresponding beat underpin this evocative filmic track." Neil March - Trust the Doc
