Dr. Steve Lindeman is a seasoned composer (having earned a Ph.D. in music history and theory), with decades of experience crafting his own musical language. Currently dividing his time between Los Angeles and Mexico City, he previously spent a number of years studying, performing, teaching, and composing in New York City, and Salt Lake City.  Rich in personality and character, his music is described as having "lush sonorities and unusual instrumental combinations, episodic shifts, extended silences."  

Steve has a deep passion and interest in scoring independent film, television, and documentaries.  He has a particular attraction to the work of David Fincher, the Coen Brothers, David Lynch, Vince Gilligan, Debra Granik, Mike White, Greta Gerwig, Alexander Payne, and Jesse Armstrong.  His musical personality is equally steeped in the modern cinematic sound of Carter Burwell, Nicholas Britell, Rachel Portman, Jonny Greenwood, Mark Orton, Dave Porter, Hildur Guðnadóttir, and Cristobal Tapia de Veer, as well as the jazz language of Lalo Schifrin, Johnny Mandel, Henry Mancini, and Terence Blanchard.  Lindeman's music is bold and individualistic, alternatively intimate and gentle, explorative, experimental, fresh, and unique.
