Biography

I started my musical journey as a bass player. I fell deeply in love with the power of this instrument, shaken by every note that flowed through my body. Influenced by great players like Flea, Marcus Miller or Joe Dart I was moved by funky lines and deep grooves. Some years passed, and after playing Outer Wilds and crying to Andrew Prahlow's Soundtrack, I wanted to understand how just a few notes could carry so much emotion. That’s what led me to start composing. After studying Music for Film and Video Games at Yamaha Music School in Valencia, I decided to fully commit myself to this incredible journey that is video game and film scoring.

Here are some projects I've been working on !

Passionate about music and video games since childhood, I’ve always dreamed of creating my own universe. Today, it’s through music that I want to take you on a journey to discover new worlds.

"Make gifts for people – and work hard on making those gifts." – John Green

This quote serves as a guide for me, a mantra I strive to follow when I compose. Because music is not just a product, nor simply a commission. Music speaks to the soul and touches the heart. That’s why every composition is a gift I offer, with all the love and care I’ve poured into it – whether it’s for a friend, a stranger, or myself.

To practice my craft, I often rescore scenes from movies or TV shows.

Below, you’ll find some of my favorite rescoring projects—in different musical styles, because I love to try out new things, new instruments or new technics when composing !
