I am a composer and university teacher based in Vienna. I’m fascinated with film music harmony.
Research
Education
I’m the Head of Department for Media Music and the senate chairman at the Jam Music Lab University Vienna. Here I teach composition and sound design for games and films.
Works
In addition to media music, I compose orchestral pieces that deal with narratives and myths.
Sounds and Scores
Narcissus – Adagio for Strings
The story of a beautiful young man who was cursed as a punishment and could only love himself. The piece is inspired by Gustav Mahler and played by Budapest Scoring.
Prometheus
Algos – Solo for Bassguitar
In 2008 I played this bass solo on my Fender Jazz Bass Deluxe. The key is E minor and I use different Aeolian and Phrygian modes, played with a 4 finger technique and double thumbing.
Rorschach
The music in this trailer is inspired by Bernard Hermann. I use the Octatonic and the Hitchcock Chord (Cm maj7).
Media Music
In my 20 years of work, I have gained an international portfolio in radio, film, tv, cinema and games.
I composed music for german (ZDF) and american series (Fox, National Geographic). In addition to hundreds of games (Xbox, Nintendo) and radio productions, I developed the signature for an american TV channel.
