COMMISSIONED WORK

PERSONAL WORK

Promotional Campaign for Lydens By (Municipality of Struer)

"Hvad betyder stilhed for dig?" (what does silence mean to you) (2020)

Sound design and music. Producing this I wanted to blur the lines between music and sound design, emphasizing the rhythm and beauty of nature; ebb and flow as well as the calming effect of nature and mindfulness breathing.

Sound art installation, Struer Tracks #3

"Arendse Krabbe - Indre Lydlandskaber / Subsurface soundscapes" (2021)

I assisted artist Arendse Krabbe in composing/recording/designing/producing and installing 5 pieces of ambient soundscapes for one of the main sound art installations at Struer Tracks #3 in 2021. We recorded various sounds from sewage systems - It was quite tricky and required a lot of manipulation of sound to make the tinny hydrophone recordings sound deep and wonderous. Furthermore, we had to mix the abstract compositions specifically for the installation sites, as there weas a lot of resonance in the drainage/sewage pipes where the speakers were installed.

Promotional video for Struer Tracks #2 (2019)

With very little material to work from, I was asked to make a promotional/teaser video for the second iteration of the Struer Tracks sound art festival.

I made the glitchy sound design and music through experimenting with circuit bending an old soundblaster sound card (FM synthesis). For the bassline, I recorded a small sample from Frode Gundorfs sound sculpture "Wind and Water", which was inaugurated at Struer Tracks #1 in 2017.

I also did all the visual design using video synthesis as well as video editing.

Podcast series

"Nordic True Stories" 2019-2021

Music, sound design and mixing/editing of the podcast series "Nordic True Stories", which was broadcasted on radio Loud. The series, an offspring of the Nordic Podcast Academy, takes the best stories from its talented pupils, giving them a little extra polish, allowing them to truly shine.

I gave the music a distinctively melancholic nordic sound.

Songwriting / Music Production

"Jul i Lydens By" (Christmas in the City of Sound) (2018)

A very, very silly song for a christmas campaign for Struer, Lydens By. I produced and composed/wrote the music and melodies, the lyrics were written by my colleagues. We wanted to salute and include as many local people as possible, I even recorded a local childrens choire to back the chorus harmonies.

The song itself is eurodance/trance inspired, and for that authentic 90s sound I used synths from that era (Roland JV-1080 and JP-8000).

Computer game music composition/production

"Unclaimed World" (2015-2016)

I composed, recorded and produced music for the science fiction survival strategy game Unclaimed World. In the game, you are stranded on an alien planet, forced to survive by scavenging materials and repurposing old technology.

In a similar vain, the music was composed and conseptualized by scavenging and repurposing royalty free recordings of classical music. By super slow-motion stretching the old recordings into oblivion, I was able to extract chords, tones and harmonies, reassembling them into something completely new. On top of these new, ambient compositions, I recorded synthesizers, real instruments (pianos and electric guitar drones as well as accoustic guitars/basses, sometimes using a violin bow for an otherworldly effect).

Radio jingles/promotions
