About

I am a composer of music for films, videogames, and all kinds of audiovisual projects. I like to tell stories and explore new musical horizons, and I always aim to create something special, a musical world tailored for the images. 

As a film and game composer I mostly write orchestral music, but I also like to integrate electronic and electro-acoustic sounds, absorb elements from folk and world music, and sometimes use my skills as an electric guitar player.
