Immerse Your Audience: I Craft Soundtracks that Connect
A great director famously said that Sound is 50% of the experience. So let's make sure your music and sound effects are not just good but the ABSOLUTE BEST POSSIBLE...

So you have your game or film in development, it is working well but something is missing...
SONIC ATMOSPHERE
You could use a generic library or AI music
But it isn't unique to your project, it lacks human touch and it isn't customised to the intricate emotions that you are trying to evoke.
Lets face it, most of this kind of audio is very poor quality. Your project deserves better.
You could use freebies from inexperienced composers
But their lack of industry knowledge and inexperience in audio leads to rushed, shoddy work with little appreciation for the art.
'You get what you pay for' sounds harsh but this especially true in sound design.
You could even do it yourself...afterall John Carpenter did
This takes effort and time which you don't have. Besides you haven't committed years of your life learning the details of composition.
In the end if you want professional job, you need a professional...
Bring on the professional...
When all is said and done, sound needs that same level of knowledge, attention to detail and
sheer passion as the rest of your project. That's where I come in...
Hello, I'm, James the Composer 😀
I've been a musician for most of my life and
have over 15 years experience in the industry.
I've spent my time making music and designing
sound effects for films and games and working
closely with directors and developers.
A recent example of this was for Astrochimp.
I was hired by Rival Powered Games.
🆘 They had an exciting trailer for their new
game, but they had a problem...they had no audio
and the launch was coming...
🏆 They needed BOTH an orchestral score and sound
effects, so I worked closely with them
🎉 I created a score which was immersive
and epic but also suited the style of the film...
Here it is:
Here are some other examples of my work:
(Unmute by hovering and clicking the speaker icon)
WordBend (Spaceplay Games)
Wordbend is fun way to challenge your mind and expand your vocabulary. The developer needed atmospheric ambient compositions and lofi backgrounds to complement the rewarding sound effects.
The Spirit of Jazz (Dir. Anith Mohan)
This exciting documentary looks at Sarathy Korwar’s journey as he establishes himself as an artist in Britain. The director wanted a complete soundworld including sound design, sonic world building and emotional incidental music.
Emily's Treasure (BlazeSoft)
For this top down underwater shooter the client asked for aquatic musical themes and inspiring sound design. I successfully match the colourful retro graphics with a wavey musical score and action-packed effects.
Semilla (Composed for RecChange 2020)
In the Mayan community, a father seeks the help of a healer, to try and save the life of his sick child. This short film directed by Pepe Perruccio, included a dream sequence which required a suitably ethereal and ambient score.
TraptionBakery (Proper Bostin Games)
A unique puzzle... a huge mad contraption to ponder over, made of upcycled things. Slowly and carefully work levers, pull cords, rotate wheels... I created 100+ diverse sound FX and a magical musical score to keep players amused for hours!
Bedbound (Here to Stay Productions)
After being involved in a road accident, Nathan has been in the hospital recovering for several weeks. As his fragile mental state stops him from remembering, how do the regular visits from his fiancé help him solve this puzzle? This tense thriller required a darkly romantic score.
Featured Project
I was recently tasked with creating music for underwater epic with thrilling and tense music
