Red Door's chief composer Ian Parkison, has won international recognition for his work with the Hong Kong Tourism Board's video “ Have you eaten yet ”. This tourism video has won 5 gold awards from respected international film festivals including the prestigious New York Film Festival and the Berlin Film Festival.

Having grown up in Hong Kong, Ian has been around Asian culture and instruments since he could hit a drum with a stick. This understanding of Asian instruments means that he can write out parts for the Erhu (Chinese Violin), Guzheng (Chinese Harp), Dizi (Chinese flute) and many other instruments, creating a modern yet traditional sound.

Ian's remix work for David Bowie, Dave Stewart, Laura Fygi, Alessandro Safina and Camelia, have been highly commended by the original artists themselves. Ian has created an Asian-inspired remix for the classic track "China Girl," which has received airplay on MTV Asia. The soul-stirringly ambient remix has led Bowie himself to claim "This is one of the coolest remixes someone has ever done for me."

Over the past 10 years, Ian has worked on hundreds of TV commercials in a very broad range of styles. Ian's many talents in the studio means that in addition to composing and arranging, he is also often seen producing, recording, mixing, and playing percussion. Sound design is a passion for Ian too, to the point of taking some recording gear with him to far-flung holidays in places like Morrocco and Vietnam. These unusual sounds captured from jungles to markets, end up as the strangest and most exciting noises when mixed up and mangled with his digital wizardry.

Ias had musicians from China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Nepal, plus the principles from the HK Philharmonic come in and play on many of his projects.
