Too many words Bio:

As many others have done, my love of music started early, while taking piano lessons as a child. I soon picked up a guitar and never looked back. In the 90s I played guitar in a death metal band with several albums published through Roadrunner Records. After the band, I owned a record store and a record label releasing electronic and industrial albums. Continuing on the journey, I started up a CD manufacturing company which I sold in 2000.

 

I took off from the music business for about 15 years, but never stopped writing music. I delved deep into theory, composition and production, when, about 5 years ago I decided to start to release music again. I released several symphonic black metal albums but wanted to expand. I was drawn heavily to trailer, cinematic and video game music, as those are epic, big, theatrical, and emotional.

 

Which brings me to the present. I am currently writing non exclusively for several libraries, including TV sync and trailers. I will have my first trailer full length released in a few months. I am currently looking for new opportunities.
