Andrew Thomas Wilson is a little known composer though he has a cult following amongst enthusiasts interested in 1980s synthesists, electronic music and Moog synth practitioners.

His discography and credits are relatively unknown, though he is commonly credited as accompanying Brian Eno on the soundtrack for Derek Jarman's 1976 feature Sebastiane.

He supplied music equipment to Cameron Allan for director Phillip Noyce's 1981 Heatwave, and he received a credit as synthesizer programmer on Peter Weir's 1982 film Gallipoli.

He also has credits on various documentaries, such as Wild Kingdom, Planet Earth and Africa, and released albums based on his work for Expo '85 and for Expo '92 in Seville.

His discography includes:

The Chain Reaction (1980) (soundtrack)Carnarvon (1984)Expo '85 (1985)Tales From the Blue Ship (1992)

An LP of the film's music was released in conjunction with the film's release, and this is now rare, though it can occasionally be found in the second hand market.
