Jonathan Zuniga is a film and tv composer at Hans Zimmer's Bleeding Fingers Music. He has composed music featured in films streaming on services such as Netflix and Hulu. In 2019 he earned a Masters of Music in Screen Scoring from the University of Southern California (USC). Prior to pursuing scoring at USC, Jonathan studied composition and graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with a Bachelors of Music in Composition in 2018. He has been mentored by composers Bruce Broughton (Silverado), Christopher Young (Spider-Man 3), Garry Schyman (BioShock), Ludek Drizhal (Badland), Patrick Kirst (The Kissing Booth), and Lawrence Shragge (Bling Ring).

I was born and raised surrounded by music.
My parents, who graduated from the conservatory in Tbilisi, were professional musicians.
Thanks to my parents ... genetics played a big role.
And indeed, at that time I started making music myself!

Composer, Musician, Singer, Sound designer Alex Busoni, began to create his compositions, inspired by the influence of such bands - artists as The Chemical Brothers, The Future Sound Of London, Karunesh, Vangelis and others.

Scott Johnson is a composer for film, games, and other media. Also a writer and filmmaker, Scott began scoring his own films from a young age; with the idea of making movies naturally came the need for music. As time progressed, he further realized the power of the right score. Now a member of ASCAP, Scott professionally produces music for a variety of projects. His involvement ranges from student films to work from major film studios, such as Warner Bros. 

For Scott, film scoring is a process of energy and creativity. Adept at creating themes and symbols through music, Scott rewards listeners for repeated listening, especially in the case of a larger work such as an album. Scott enjoys film scoring because of this; there are a myriad of ideas in a film’s story to be represented musically. 

Every project has a unique sound. Scott not only writes music that complements the storytelling, but music that establishes the sonic landscape of a project (considering setting, characters, motivations, etc). In this case, an understanding of film is equally important to an understanding of music. While film scoring allows for a versatility of styles, a film requires music strictly linked to its DNA. For Scott, it's all about writing to this identity, exploring different harmonic languages, textures, and sounds to build an auditory story to accompany the visual one. The collaborative energy and effort involved in filmmaking has always been an inspiration for Scott. Like Christopher Nolan said to Hans Zimmer at the conception of “Interstellar”: It’s about knowing the heart of the movie. 

In addition to working with traditional, live players, Scott embraces technology in the music industry, and works at the forefront of its rapid development. With the art of sampled music and orchestral mockups, Scott focuses on achieving the greatest realism possible through the marriage of tools such as sample libraries and skills like orchestration and sound engineering. 

From the movies to personal life, music keeps everything connected. A film’s score integrates components such as character situation and landscape to reinforce a story. But outside of film, music connects people to their own stories, and to each other. Unique to the medium of music, something so personal to one person can instantly become personal to another the moment it is played. Mastering the psychology of music is a mastery of connection.

 My musical background is varied. I started studies in music theory and violin at the age of 8. At the age of eleven, I started with  guitar. I 'm a self-taught guitarist. One year later I started in  a school to study harmony and modern piano for six years. In 2006 I moved to Madrid to study visual production and sound.

I'm part of several bands which plays different styles: Rock, pop, heavy ...

My favourite music style  is classical music and rock. I do not think that both worlds need to be exclusionary.

My musical instrument is the piano. I spend my time playing it with complete devotion.

Some samples that can be heard on SoundCloud serve to show the variety that I can cover. I give special priority to  symphonic samples.
