About

the • gritty • nitty

I have a passing interest in astrophotography, landscape photography, good food, good coffee, good wine and cocktails done right. You’ll find me listening to fine music, looking up at dark skies in far away places and petting all good dogs.

I have a dog called Enzo and a wife called Jo. I like to play retro video games and my favorite food is homemade pizza.

Originally from the UK, I now live in Houston Texas, USA.

Now and Then

Before it became a global phenomenon, this track was a quiet, intimate song built on space, restraint, and emotional honesty. Originally released in 2011 by Gotye and featuring Kimbra, the track appeared on the album Making Mirrors and slowly grew into one of the most defining songs of the decade.

No More

Few songs capture the quiet devastation as “The Winner Takes It All.” Released by ABBA in 1980 as part of their Super Trouper album, the song marked a turning point, not just for the band’s sound, but for how openly they allowed real life to seep into their music.

A Glance Across the World

Enzo Goes to Titwood's second album is a set of deconstructed, reconstructed, remixed, extended and reimagined tracks. It’s music that I like to listen to, maybe you like it too. Love manipulates the universe, in such it becomes immortal.

Pomegranate Gimlet

If you are going to have a cocktail, have a good one! This is an update to the classic gimlet with pomegranate juice to add vibrancy to the flavor profile. It's a great drink for the holidays.

Mistletoe Martini

The Mistletoe Martini is ready for the holidays. A cocktail created to capture the spirit of the season. The Mistletoe Martini blends the flavors of cranberry and elderflower. Because it uses a light fruit juice instead of all heavy liqueurs, the flavor is refreshing.
