Manuel Tirado has always had music at the heart of everything he does. Whether crafting orchestral scores, electronic soundscapes, or genre-blending compositions, he approaches every project with the same goal: to bring a story to life. His experience spans composing for interactive media, collaborating on Game Jam projects, producing music for Plain Speaking Press, and working as a recording engineer at Decade Sound Studios. With a background in composition from Pacific Lutheran University and a deep appreciation for diverse musical styles—from choral harmonies to progressive metal, fusion, and Latin American traditions—he strives to create music that is both technically polished and emotionally resonant.
