Composer · Music Director · Producer

Original music.
Made for your story.

Hi, I’m Ashwin. I write original music for films, brands and campaigns, and bring it to life as a composer and music director. I combine memorable melodies, live instruments and sounds I create myself to give your story a feeling people can connect with.

Scoring stories from the first idea

How I work

From a melody to a finished score.

It starts with a simple question: what should someone feel here? I write the melody, build the arrangement and guide the musicians and production around that answer. Sometimes it takes a single instrument. Sometimes it takes an orchestra. The story tells me what belongs.

A signature sound

A sound made for your story.

I like finding sounds you can’t quite put a name to. I design my own synth tones, then combine them with the warmth and detail of live instruments. That mix gives me a wider range of colors to write with and gives your music its own character.

We can work together on an original song, a film score or music for your next campaign. I handle composition, music direction and production, and can also help with editing and sound design when your project needs them.

Why original music

Give your story a sound of its own.

Music can make a quiet scene feel personal, give a launch a sense of possibility, or make an ordinary moment stay with you. I write with that feeling in mind.

Let’s finish the feeling

Where this approach fits

Music that helps shape
the whole idea.

Inside my creative process

One piece.
Four connected layers.

I start with the story, compose its musical idea, build the arrangement and produce the finished track. When a project includes visuals, I shape them around the music.
