What we do
We’re writing, recording, mixing and producing film scores. Our ‘boutique’ handmade and highly emotional approach to scoring is based both on a deep understanding of the project’s specifics and a faithful communication and cooperation with the film’s director/producer. Each project is different and unique. That’s why we’re committed to go beyond the beaten path in order to provide whatever is required musically, allowing ourselves to totally indulge in the project. Based in Berlin and Vienna we rely on our premises and resources to handle projects of various kinds and sizes. Although open for a variety of genres and musical styles our more recent work leans towards artistically ambitious, leftfield biopics, animated films, fine art films and fiction feature films.
