He soon began writing and producing music for television and radio commercials at this time which led, on relocation to London, to work with MTV Europe and VH1 UK. He also is a composer with Lounge Productions UK. In 2006, he set up The Sanctuary Recording Studio with partner Eric Appapoulay.
David McEwan is currently a member of the band The Safires. Their music has been compared to a style combining that of The Cranberries, Sarah McLachlan & The Sundays. McEwan is responsible in the group for bass, electronics and programming.
McEwan has done long time work for Nitin Sawhney. Since 1998 he has been working as both the live and studio engineer for Nitin Sawhney. His most current project includes mixing Sawhney's music for the new BBC Human Planet series.
He also produced tracks for British MC/Singer Plan B for his number 1 award winning album "The Defamation of Strickland Banks" including the top 10 single "She Said". The bulk of the material on The Defamation Of Strickland Banks was recorded by David McEwan and co-owner Eric Appapoulay at their own studio in South London, The Sanctuary Recording Studio. Partly because they were simultaneously working on its hip-hop counterpart.
