Winner of 2 Best Score awards at Las Po Film Fest, Jake K. Siders was raised by a family of physicists in Livermore, CA and trained at Berklee College of Music in the Screen Scoring Department. He is a synth programmer, musical sound designer, and composer specializing in electronic scores for horror and sci-fi films. Fascinated by fear of the unknown, Jake is particularly interested in work in the Lovecraftian/cosmic horror genre. Through synthesis and musical sound design, he creates compelling new soundscapes that your audience won’t have heard before.
As a synth programmer and musical sound designer, Jake creates custom-made score sound design assets for media composers (such as audio files, loops, and Kontakt patches) using modular synthesizers, manipulated field recordings, experimental impulse responses, and more.
As a composer, Jake has worked with filmmakers to create highly atmospheric original scores for their films that have screened at genre festivals across the country.
Jake’s filmic influences include the films of Moorhead & Benson, David Prior’s The Empty Man, Mike Flanagan’s work, Kubrick’s The Shining, Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, and Joseph Kosinski's Tron: Legacy
