Ride The Fantasy (uplifting and exciting adventure music)

I make epic soundtrack music mixed with ethnic, folk, medieval and electronic instruments for some very unique sounding stuff. My music is usually very melodic, rhythmic and simple yet very diverse.  I absorb my artistic inspirations mainly from video game and movie soundtracks. Some good examples include Future World Music, Two Steps From Hell, Koji Kondo, Jeremy Soule, John Williams and Hans Zimmer. Remember to share this page with your friends if you enjoy the music! And even if you don't.

Hi there,
my name is Stefan. Composer, sound sculptor, and professional “what happens if I add a bassoon here?” enthusiast.

I write music because I honestly can’t stop.
I’ve tried. Gardening. Taxes. Meditation. But within three minutes, a string chord sneaks into my head and boom – I’m back at the piano.

So what do I make?
Emotional instrumental music.
Or as my dog would say (if he could talk):
“Something between Hollywood, daydreams, and soft existential drama.”
Strings, piano, orchestra – sometimes epic, sometimes fragile – always aiming to say something that words can’t.

I could list the number of streams, followers, and playlists I’ve not yet been featured on… but let’s be honest: music isn’t a spreadsheet. It’s more like an internal volcano. With strings.

And why do I do this?
Because I believe music can reach places that logic can’t. And because someone has to soundtrack all the bittersweet fantasy worlds living rent-free in my head.

So if you’re in the mood for a musical journey somewhere between film score, poetry, and mild megalomania – grab some headphones and join me.

It won’t be normal. But it’ll be worth it.

Cheers,
– Stefan
