I'm a 25 year old Swedish born filmmaker residing in London, UK. But one of my dearest hobbies is to compose music. I have no education when it comes to composing, only a musical family and my passion for music. The main reason for my composing is simply to get all my ideas out there, for them to be tangible and heard by other people. I hope that people enjoy the music and feedback is always appreciated.
My style is mainly orchestral and choral but I'm always keen to experiment and to try new things. I think music is all about trying new things. 

This is my musical journey, I hope you'll enjoy the ride.


Feel free to comment if you want to compliment or critique!

I'm a 20-year-old female aspiring video game and movie soundtrack composer based in Paris, France.

My musical taste is very large, from japanese VGM composers such as Masashi Hamauzu, Nobuo Uematsu or Yôko Shimomura to bands like Nine Inch Nails, Muse or Fightstar, through artists like Björk, deadmau5, Nujabes and classic composers.
I'll try to blend all these influences into something original and pretty for your your ears, so follow my SoundCloud if you want to stay tuned!

Please spread the word with everyone who might be interested in my fabulous adventure! Thank you~ /o/
