My work varies from dark, mysterious and grandiose to mellow, emotional and minimalistic, from organic to electronic. Everything I do is based on telling a story regardless whether it is large project or something made just for the fun of it.
"My interest with moving pictures and music began at the age of 6 when my uncle dragged me along to the shooting of a commercial. Ever since I walked that path taking lessons in different areas of the field. The most experience I have with story development and music.
Through screenwriting I've gained a deep understanding of the structures of stories and it helps to bring my music to life. I approach the music of film much like I tackle a screenplay and a story.
In music I'm intrigued by primitive elements, tradional instruments play a large role in my sound scape. The strong tones of ethnic instruments are too often forgotten in the modren world and they bring a freshness and air into a world of raw and artificial sounds. And there lies the most interesting ground, the combining of the modern and the tradional. That it the world I draw the largest elements into my music. There is so much age old power in ethnic instruments that they bring more kick and depth to familiar sound scapes that I feel it's a shame not to use it.
I feel that the music in a film needs to highlight those things that are essential to the story and strengthen them. I never approach a project with the same palette of thoughts and goals but rather they shape along with the story and how it's told. Every story is it's own and every storyteller brigns his own perspective to it, which is what the composer has to reach.
I always find my own visions for every project, which I'm more than happy to work with, but I feel that the strongest works a born when the storyteller and the composer find the middle ground together, when there's a mixture of thoughts from both. Strong communication and respect between both sides is an important aspect of my composing process. "

Hi Tapsa Kuusniemi
Come check out this exclusive FREE Download of the theme song from the cult TV Show Dark Skies! Available for a limited time only at: www.PerseveranceRecords.com/FreeDownload
I just posted 2 new songs. I would really appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to drop by to check them out.
"The Resolution movie credits" is a symphonic/choirs type piece I did for the closing credits of a movie. It is a big majestic cue with a full (sampled) symphony and choir.
"Until the Night is Gone," is an uptempo pop tune which I had a lot of fun doing. This is my debut as a lead vocalist. I have always been very insecure about my vocal abilities so this is a kind of coming out for me.
Hi Tapsa! Thanks for accepting my request. It's good to know more promising film score composers such as yourself! I do hope you can find the time to check out my work as well! Thanks and take care!
Tapsa,
I definitely hear the Hans Zimmer influence. And thanks for checking out my music. My first official SOUNDTRACK just got released! Take a listen here:
A while back you added me as you friend. Now my new movie, "Evil Behind You" is being released at Blockbuster, Hollywood Video, Netflix, Movie Gallery and more on Feb 14th. It is a Sci-Fi Christian Thiller Horror, but one scene might let you call it a Chic Flick for Valentines Day. Ok, that is a stretch.
Anyway, thank you so much for your support. I hope you enjoy the movie.
