A simple pizzicato theme repeated with some violin melodies. Would love to record this one with a big band and build it up even more! Enjoy!

Violin Folk song

Vocals and violin by Luca Hart (recorded on webcam mic). The rest of the sound is done on Logic Pro X samples. An ideal piece of music for an epic game intro or trailer. Enjoy!

Epic Game Music (demo)

This song can speak in different ways. It is either beautiful and pensive, but it can also be quite mournful, depending how you use it. The heart can only take so much speaks of the intensity with which some people feel, and the beauty that lies therein.

The Heart Can Only Take So Much

This is an original of Stefan Sweischer, from Germany. He recorded an album in Cape Town, and I was very honoured to record violin on his album. This song was my favourite, but you can listen to all the others on www.stefanschweizer.de.


Müde- by Stefan Sweischer

An original by LUMA, epic-gypsy instrumental band from Cape Town. Guitar: Matthias Silbernagl, violin: Luca Hart, composed by both musicians.

Sungroove- by Luca Hart and Matthias Silbernagl (LUMA)

A slow paced electro track. Introduction showcases improvising-style violin melody, and chorus a reverberated repetitive theme that harmonises half way through. All samples are basic Logic sounds and violin recorded with NT2 Rode mic. A basic mix, this track could still be more punchy with a proper mix or remix. 
Song composed, recorded, mixed and performed (violin) by Luca Hart.
Enjoy!

Desert March

A Million Years

Call of the Cranes

The bougainvillea plant flowers profusely when it is not watered, pouring all its energy into what it thinks is the final chapter of its life. Sometimes we, too, show our most exquisite colours when pushed to the limit.

Ain't No Sunshine

A quick composition for a trailer about the artist Simon Stone, to be released end of this year.

If I were a painter, I would never use all the hues
But you are the painter and you
would know which colours to choose.
Would you...

"The Losing Game"- Singleplayer ft. Luca Hart

Fynbos surrounds my home and provides the calm I need when things get too busy in the world or in my head. 
This is a one-take composition, making up notes and chords as I go, following my emotions closely. Thus mistakes are included, as you can hear how I change my mind or adapt a note.

Fynbos In Die Reen

From the latest album "Stronghold", available for streaming on iTunes, Spotify and more.
