Hi, I am Alex!
Hello! I'm Alex, a composer based in Hamburg, Germany. I've been crafting music for trailers and video games for about 17 years now. My journey took a significant turn in 1998 when I moved to L.A. to study music at the Los Angeles College of Music, and wrote my first trailer track in 2005 for Dynamedion.
Over the years, I've been fortunate to collaborate with renowned music production companies like Two Steps from Hell, Epic Score, Liquid Cinema, Gothic Storm, Position Music, and many more. You may have heard my work in movie trailers such as Pacific Rim, Sherlock Holmes, and Harry Potter. Currently, my music is featured in over 60+ TV shows worldwide.
In addition to trailer music, I've had the opportunity to work with industry greats like Mick Gordon (DOOM 2016), Trevor Morris (The Tudors), and Frank Peterson (Sarah Brightman). I've composed numerous tracks for video games and created demos for nearly every top-tier sample library company.
