I’m an aspiring Composer for film, television and games. I also take interest in composing for other art forms such as Dance and Theatre.

My first experience of music began at age 8 when I decided to start playing the piano simply because I saw someone else playing it at school and I wanted to play the same piece he was playing, Beethoven’s Fur Elise. Fast forward a few years, about 3 or 4 years, turns out I’d fallen in love with the damn instrument so I decided keep going. Since then I have added other instruments along the way, Cello, Classical Guitar and an on and off again relationship with the Violin. Alongside composing I enjoy Arranging, Orchestration, Conducting, Sound Design.

 

My interest in composition started when I realised playing someone else’s work was never going enough for me because no matter how evoking the music was it could never quite express everything I wanted, so I began to compose my own.

I decided to specialise specifically in composing for film, television and games because I realised what I loved most about composition was its link with movement, emotion and its ability to highlight the environment it is intended for. For me, music in a film/TV is the sound you hear when you read between the lines of the dialogue and it intrigues me. The music dictates how much I enjoy, connect and empathise with a film. For me, the music creates an isolated, intoxicating and mesmerising environment which I am addicted to submerging myself and an audience into.

 

I was born in Nigeria, and moved to the UK in 2004 and currently live in the South East. I studied music for music as part of my GCSE at a performing arts focused secondary school before studying Music and Music Technology A Level at the East Sussex Academy of Music in Lewes. I graduated with a BA (Hons) in Film Music and Soundtrack Production from the University Centre Colchester/ University of Essex. I’m soon to begin an MMus in Composing for Film and Television.
