Steven Wilson is probably the most prolific musician you’ve never heard of. He fronts the British rock band Porcupine Tree (whom you’ve probably also never heard of) and writes pretty much all of their music. He also takes part in at least three or four side projects (that I know of). He sings, writes lyrics, plays guitar, writes music, mixes and produces, maintains his own website, and closely oversees just about every project he has any involvement on.

And, in his sparetime (where he gets that, I don’t know) he apparently does music for commericials. According to, at least, the title of one of the songs from his CD, Unreleased Electronic Music Volume One, which I believe is a collection of tracks he wrote over a number of years.

I don’t know the origin of the track “Telegraph Commercial 1996,” but I was inspired while listening to it one day to write down its “lyrics.” And then to put those “lyrics” on a Sony Vegas timeline. And off and on over the next week or so, I put together an animation. And I called it… Telegraph 1996.
