Hello, thanks for the eloquent introduction!

just getting on here for real, got here through the helpful article you posted about making the most. thanks for the advice!

so nice to hear you Oliver...and sc. is important for me too. the cloud is great..so many wonderful musicans and humans:)) wishing you a great day with magic music:)

Hi! I'm Oliver Sadie, and London is where I spend my days.

For a living, I do 2 jobs. I crunch numbers all day long in a Finance job but by night I compose, perform and produce music professionally for film and tv. My number 1 instrument is the piano, which I've played all my life and features heavily in my work of many genres.

I've been on SoundCloud for 3 years now and have had an incredible time of it. It's no co-incidence that my time on SoundCloud has been the formative part of my musical career - I started as a bedroom musician with an iPhone and a piano, but it is the community of passionate music makers which keeps drawing me back every night to make more and hear more music, and encourages me to learn more and improve my craft. I use the platform to the max, and those tracks you see on my profile are a tiny fraction of the tons of private tracks on there which I use for collaborations and for sharing work in progress with the film & tv directors I work with.

It's hard to pick a favourite collaboration or community activity on SoundCloud, I've been involved in so many great ones it's like trying to pick your favourite child. But some highlights include my SoundCloud Sinfonietta mass collaborations, the 2nd of which is nearing completion, and my YourTune project where I turned 20 second melodies into full pieces. 

My favourite sound in the whole world is the glug-glug of the pouring of the first dram of a fine single malt whisky with friends. Music to my ears. Mm. 

Anyway, back to SoundCloud. I'm thrilled to be part of the Hero programme, although I think that's an incredible title to live up to. Maybe I'll save some baby pandas from a crocodile before actually calling myself a Hero, in the meantime, I'm just Oliver Sadie and doing what I normally do anyway - having fun collaborating with the incredible talent right here, and that probably includes you. Well, I might not have heard you, maybe your singing sounds like a baby panda being eaten by a crocodile, but hey, that's what I'm here for.

I'd also like to take the opportunity to bring more light to professional composer communities like <a href=http://www.scorecastonline.com>SCOREcast:Online</a>.

Thanks, see you on the 'Cloud!

Oliver Sadie, Composer — A Personal Introduction

COMPOSER FOR THE SCREEN
Film, TV, Advertising, Games

▶ http://oliversad.ie ◀

I am a composer, producer and pianist based in Berkshire, UK.

I write beautiful music with live and virtual orchestras, live instrumentalists and vocalists. With studio production quality, I am able to seamlessly integrate recorded parts with modern sound design and electronic parts, and deliver music-sync’ed video demos.

Writing professionally since 2009, my work can be heard in numerous original feature film and short film scores, in adverts for web and tv, and in general web and tv production where licensed from high end music libraries.

Good working relationships with filmmakers are hugely important to me, where I have many years of experience in the spotting-writing-production cycle. With great communication, I always aim to make the director’s work as easy and hassle-free as possible, an ethos which has carried me through many successful projects.

Get in touch if you’re looking for a high quality soundtrack for your next production.
