Stetson banned strings, synths, and percussion before he wrote a note — because they work too well. Every horror fan recognizes shrieking violins instantly.

🎷 That’s not a synth. The Hereditary score is a saxophone with microphones taped to it — and the reason it’s terrifying is that it never breathes.

🎬 Ever feel like your music just sits on top of a scene instead of becoming part of it? The fix isn’t a better melody — it’s what you do before you write a single note.

Swipe through for the emotional-map method I teach on day one of Score Your First Scene 🎯 It’s the difference between scoring the action and scoring the feeling. 🔥

The course is live and the early-bird price ends in 48 hours — link in bio.

🎓 A film scoring degree costs $200k.

This costs less than a decent mic. 🎤

What’s inside:
✅ 23 lessons across 6 modules
✅ How to actually find directors and pitch them
✅ Spotting sessions, delivery specs, what to charge

This isn’t theory. It’s the stuff I use on real jobs. 🎬

⏳ 6 days. Then the price doubles.

Been quiet for a week — this is why.

I’ve been heads-down building Score Your First Scene — the course I wish existed when I was making music but had no clue how to actually get hired to score a film.

Bedroom producer, coming back to music after years, lifelong hobbyist — doesn’t matter.
If you can make music, you already have the hard part. This teaches the other half.

Doors open August 1. More soon. 🎬

🚨 Got early access to Malform — a brand new horror sample pack dropping June 22nd — and it’s unsettling in the best way possible. 🎬🎧

I put it through its paces so you don’t have to guess. Full review is live on YouTube — link in bio.

Drop a 🎃 if you want the timestamp for the creepiest sound in the pack.

Most composers aren’t relying on just one income stream anymore.

One month it’s scoring a film. 🎬
The next it’s writing library music. 🎼
Then it’s music for commercials, games, podcasts, trailers, or production projects. 🎮📺

Building a career in music today often means creating multiple paths for opportunities to find you.

The goal isn’t just to make great music.
It’s to build a sustainable creative business around it. 🚀
