The NETHER

Stage Play

Composer, Soundscape Designer

​

Award-Winning play written by Jennifer Haley. The Scottish premiere of the play was staged by Theatre Paradok and directed by Vlada Nebo. 

The story involves several complex and multifaceted characters, which all got their own musical treatment as opening statements to the different scenes. As the story unfolded, these themes interacted and developed. 

Key to the soundscape and music was also the transition between the dystopian real world, and the utopian virtual reality realm the Hideaway. The dystopian city scape was created by layering and processing field recordings captured on the  underground and main roads of Berlin. The soundscape for the Nether on the other hand,   featured birdsong and rustling of leaves. But the soothing soft digital introduction gradually breaks apart as the realm reveals its true nature.

Jeff & Lisa Vs. Season1& 2

Indie Sci-fi Web Series

Audio Director, Composer

​

On Jeff+Lisa Vs. the three composers in Outer Limit Production took turns scoring the episodes. We worked to give the music a consistent theme throughout, and at the same time make room for individual style differences in each episode. When scoring the episode, each composer reworked and built on material from Kit Willmott´s opening theme, adapting it to his personal style.

​

I composed music for several episodes of the series including the extended Season 2 Finale.

​

Season 2 Finale - Jeff & Lisa Vs. the Finale

Season 2 Episode 2 - Jeff & Lisa Vs. Photocide

​

Season 1 Episode 4 - Jeff & Lisa Vs. Santa

Brainfood

Short Film

Audio Director, Composer, Music Producer

Brainfood is a Indie Zombie Short film.  The film takes place 10 years after the Zombie apocalypse, and the zombies go on with dead life quite similar to mundane working humans. Everything is falling apart, is a bit broken and this is reflected in a slightly distorted popular music palette. However, there are also more serious undertones emphasized by piano and strings. I produced and co-composed the score for the film. 

​

"I was impressed with Christian's resourcefulness in finding instrumentalists and fellow composers to aid him in creating the soundtrack. It was also a pleasure to work with him creatively on a soundtrack which not only sounded good but also creatively incorporated the film's themes."
