Amos Deane – Music Composer, Greater London

Biography

I was born in London in the UK. I began playing guitar at 9, learning classical guitar and playing in local rock bands. I studied guitar at the Royal Academy of Music for a year before studying composition at City University in London.

Musically I like both traditional classical composition styles as well as modern production techniques, and I also like styles that blend the two. Where possible I try to use live musicians in my music as well as samples and electronics in my compositions. Some of my influences include composers such as: Craig Armstrong, Michael Nyman, Thomas Newman and Ennio Morricone.

I started writing originally for fringe theatre and student films. Since then I have written for corporate and multimedia projects, have contributed to music libraries and also become involved in educational work relating to music composition.

Revenge Of The Resurrected by Stu Kennedy

• “Great eerie track - I can definitely see zombies. Hints of Danny Elfman but without the cliched bass lines. Choir isn't over used and love the strings that build from 50''. Fantastic!…”
