Welcome to my Soundcloud page. I'm a Japanese amateur guitarist and keyboardist. I have started to compose music used with logic pro  since  September last year. The category is pop instrumental music.
This page is a small showcase of some original music I've written and recorded in my room. I hope you like it.

I started composing daily pieces and posting them onto SoundCloud at the beginning of 2013.  By posting daily I am tweaking, experimenting and developing a thought, idea or event in time.  I am endeavouring to show that there is no limit to that creative spark that lies within each of us.  So much of what we do nowadays is about instant return, I am about evolution not revolution (although each month starts with a clean slate).  Join me on my journey to 10,000 (18 May 2040!!!)

Over the years I have found the Soundcloud community to be extremely supportive and encouraging.  It’s great to have a Global Mastermind of musical adventurers.

Thank you!

ToneDeF is a software engineer by profession, part-time composer by inclination. He is influenced musically by what he listens to, which consists of hard rock, hair metal, synth-pop, progressive rock/metal, new age electronic, techno/trance, and classics from the Romantic and Baroque periods. It is not unusual to hear tiny shades of commercially successful works within his own humble little ones -- he considers it an homage to the truly talented.

One of ToneDeF's guilty pleasures is recreating the music of classic computer/video games utilizing modern synthesized and sampled sounds. His first submission to SoundCloud was a re-imagining of the main theme music from the classic LucasArts game, "Ballblazer".

Although he has chosen "ToneDeF" as his handle, rest assured that he is not actually "tone deaf".

Who exactly are "The ElectroMetal Minstrels"? They are the virtual musicians "performing" the virtual instruments on each track sequenced by ToneDeF.

I'm primarily a guitar player but I'll try to make music with anything you throw at me. When left to my own devices I enjoy recording minimalist ambient pieces and textural soundscapes. My principal sound source for these efforts is manipulated guitar but I often include electronics and organic sources. I enjoy working on collaborations with other musicians. Please contact me if you are interested.

I love the sounds of the 60s and 70s especially. I try to write songs that I would enjoy listening to myself. It’s the only gauge I have. My songs are just the sum total of all my positive listening experiences. I'll let you try to guess who they are!

Hello

Please hear.

Stefan Kraft creates cinematic orchestral music that bridges classical tradition with modern emotional storytelling.

"Hi there, I’m Stefan Kraft – a German composer creating cinematic orchestral music that bridges classical tradition and modern emotional storytelling.

My works move between film score, neo-classical, and ambient sound worlds – driven by piano, lush strings, and detailed orchestral textures. Each piece aims to tell stories that words can’t, capturing both beauty and quiet intensity in sound.

My style is often compared to composers like Thomas Newman, James Newton Howard, or Rachel Portman – emotional yet refined, with a focus on harmony, texture, and atmosphere.

I believe music can reach places that logic can’t – and that’s why I write. If you’re drawn to cinematic soundscapes filled with warmth, melancholy, and a sense of wonder, you might feel at home here.

So grab your headphones and join me on a journey somewhere between classical elegance and cinematic emotion."
