His music often has gothic, surrealist or cosmic themes and is influenced by prog, experimental, classical, soundtracks, easy listening, library music, folk horror and art rock. He releases albums with his project Karda Estra (mainly instrumental) and under his own name (which includes songs). Richard also enjoys co-writing and this has led to collaboration albums with Matt Baber (Sanguine Hum), Kavus Torabi (Cardiacs, Gong) and Paul Sears (The Muffins). He also contributes from time to time to albums by Spirits Burning which has resulted in collaborations with members of Hawkwind, Blue Oyster Cult, Gong, Tangerine Dream and author Michael Moorcock, amongst others. Richard plays live mainly in two duos. The first with long time collaborator Amy Fry (clarinet, saxophone, vocals, aerophone) and the second with fellow weaver of wyrd tales Chantelle Smith (harp, vocals, guitar, shruti box, bodhran). He plays live guitar and produces for his daughter Sienna Wileman who is also a singer/songwriter. Richard's projects are regularly featured/ reviewed in Prog magazine and played on Stuart Maconie's Freak Zone radio show on BBC 6music. Richard is also an artist and produces much of the art and design for his releases. He also released six albums with his band Lives & Times which was active between 1988 and 1997.
