Before becoming a composer I've played trumpet. I started playing when I was 7 and by the age of 16 was quite a promising student when I damaged my embouchure and had to interrupt my career. Only a decade later I started playing again during my music lessons for children, then three years ago I joined a brass band and from this year on picked up on regular practicing. Lessons with Frank van der Poel and his method have been a great help in regaining the embouchure!

Right now I focus on Armenian traditional duduk repertoire which I play on a four valves quarter tone trumpet specially made by Hub van Laar. I try to bring the beauty and warmth of the duduk's sound and its ornamentation into my trumpet playing.

"On a Loose String" offers a mellow and serene backdrop perfect for film, documentaries, and other multimedia projects. Featuring a double bass, simple acoustic drums, a piano melody, and subtle strings, this track creates a laid-back, jazzy atmosphere. Its sparse arrangement allows it to sit comfortably behind dialogue, enhancing the emotional tone without overpowering the narrative. Ideal for content producers seeking a smooth and elegant sound to complement their visual storytelling.

Not all things fade by nature. Some are made to disappear.

Evanescent Frequency mirrors a world where decay is no longer organic but imposed, where lifespans—of objects, ideas, and even sound—are carefully engineered to be short-lived. In nature, resonance lingers, and silence comes gradually. But in an age of programmed obsolescence, disappearance is manufactured, ensuring that what was once essential is discarded before its time.

The music unfolds in this same manufactured cycle. It begins with fragments—small pulses of energy, scattered textures that gradually coalesce, gaining complexity and momentum. Harmonies expand, orchestration thickens, and layers accumulate, reflecting the illusion of permanence and progress.

At its peak, the structure begins to dissolve. But this is not destruction—it is an unraveling, an enforced stillness that overtakes what was once vibrant. The density of sound fades into weightlessness, harmonies drift apart, and resonance becomes ghostly, as if the music itself is slipping away into the unreachable. The frequencies do not end abruptly but instead dissolve into an ethereal quiet, mirroring the way things vanish from use yet never fully disappear.

Evanescent Frequency is a meditation on impermanence, on the forces that decide what is allowed to endure and what is designed to be forgotten. It asks us to listen—to what fades, to what remains, and to the silence left behind.

Flame Of The West - Strings Arrangement

Lyrics:
It’s You And I (feat. Kimera Morrell )
BPM = 120  ©  Bobby Martinez, HeartLove Music, ASCAP
Intro:
Da da da da da… 

Verse 1:

In the moment here
Morning lurking near 
No more shattered dreams 
No more silent screams
All we need is us
That will be enough
Love is just the thing
when it’s thundering

The way you look at me
I always know that we own the light
I’m over my fight
I’ve settled my scores
I am yours 

Chorus: 

It’s you and I 
When all is said and done 
And all the battles won
It’s you and I forever standing tall
We’re stronger than them all
Our flame will never die
When all is said and done it’s you and I
(I-I-I ...)
It’s you and I
(I-I-I ...)
When all is said and done it’s you and I

Verse 2:

I wait at the gate
Your flight is delayed
I am breathless now
As you’re touching down
Fin’ly you’re not far
Running to my arms
There’s no need for words
As our fire burns 

No matter where we are
I always know our hearts beat in sync
I’m back from the brink
I’m in a love song
Where I belong

Repeat chorus

Bridge:

Love’s a hard thing to wrap your heart around
As it passes you by without a sound
But I found you despite myself
Now we’ve got the world to ourselves

Repeat chorus

It's You And I

Eternal Recurrence

Fox in the Forest (dystopian-western-alt-rock)

with all the river's dragging through today
there's nothing here for me, no shiny coats, to place around who you see
there's nothing here for me

run little dancer, run away, the fox in the forest, have all gone away

with all the river's pushing through today
there's no one here that's free, just shiny bots, caged in vanity
we're caged in vanity

run little dancer, run away, the fox in the forest, have all gone away
and nothing matters if you stay, so run little dancer, run away

with all the river's dredging through today, who now should I be?
what pleasing role can I fashion into me? i'll twist it into me.,,

run little dancer, run away, the fox in the forest, have all gone away
and nothing matters, if you stay, run little dancer, run away

Fox in The Forest

It will take you on a Beautiful journey and heal your soul
