Composer for #AvatarTheLastAirbender, #LegendOfKorra, #ScreamTVSeries, etc. Founding member of @TheEchoSociety composer collective.

Banshee is a visionary artist breaking barriers with her genre-defying sound and evocative storytelling. Completely self-produced and self-written, she masterfully blends elements of fantasy, raw emotion, and unorthodox musical styles to create an otherworldly experience. Her sound invites you to escape your world and step into hers, where fear transforms into beauty, and individuality reigns. With hauntingly powerful vocals and a fearless approach to artistry, Banshee isn’t just making music; she’s altering reality.

Dear music lover, 
I am glad you found me. I am a Germany-based composer and experimental music producer. 
In additon to electronics, I am always interested in combining them with the conventional sound of the orchestra or foreign traditonal instruments in search for new sonic colours to create a unique sound.
I hold two Master Degrees in music, studied in Ireland, Germany and Tokyo and tried to explore as many different musical and sonic worlds as possible.
Besides my work in media music, I am also part of the experimental electronic duo Himanto.
At present I continue to work closely with both visual media and public artists.
Feel free to contact me,
Jan

"Romantically heavy and elusive as moonlight, Sara Azriel’s music defies boundaries, brightens the heart, and casts light on a young woman painfully in love with the world around her.”  (Eric Smith, Providence Monthly) Sara was born and raised into a large musical family near the shores of Lake Michigan. In 2013 she released her debut self-titled EP. "Sara Azriel" was mixed by Grammy award-winning mix engineer James Wisner (Amy Winehouse, Justin Timberlake), and includes musical, writing and production contributions from Davy Nathan (Christina Aguilara, Babyface), Andrew ‘Moon’ Bain (Snoop Dogg, Major Lazer), and Mike Feingold (Erykah Badu, John Legend). Sara has performed her music at revered venues such as Hotel Cafe (Los Angeles, CA), Knitting Factory (Los Angeles, CA), Narrows Center For The Arts (Fall River), House of Blues (Boston, MA), and The Veteran Memorial Auditorium (Providence, RI).
