HKU Student

Composer, Sound Designer, Music Technologist

What I do

Producing New Media Art since 2016, always looking for the next technological milestone.

Music/Sound

I started producing music back when I was a student at the HBA. And quickly fell in love with producing electronic music.

Designing my own sounds help me to create a new world of tone, timbre and feeling, creating a new reality for the listener.

 

 

Creative System Design/ INTERACTION

Using Max/Msp and other various coding languages/environments I’m able to translate from one domain of data to another.

By creating systems that interpret and translate I’m able to find creativity in places that were previously to far out of reach to be creative with.

VISUALS / LIVE

I’m experienced with Adobe, Maxon and Resolume software. With these tools I can make short animations for commercial or creative usage. Working with my Uncle (who has been in the visual business far longer then I have) and performing as a VJ at numerous venues allowed me to get comfortable with working behind the scene’s.

Main Projects

AUTONOMOUS MUSIC ENDEVOURS

As ISAGA I release music that excites me.

Always finding new combinations of new styles and usage’s.

With 2 ep’s released and more music to come I hope you’ll follow my journey going forward.

I am currently working on a lot of new music with Sem van Uden. There’s a 9 track EP waiting to be finished and that’s not the only music waiting to be released so stay tuned!

FILM PROJECTS

In 2021 I got the oppertunity to compose music for a short film called Layang Layang by Dewi Hartono.

I composed the music over a time of a couple of months.

The soundtrack uses Traditional Indonesian music and Westen music theory to create movement, constrast and resolution.

The film is yet to be premiered but you can watch the trailer right now!

A couple of weeks ago I was asked to compose music for another short film. This will be finished round the end of February.

Other Projects

Small Interactive Experience in UE4

For a HKU school wide seminar I was tasked to create a piece of art using a media form not used before, to be inspired by films of Tarkovsky.

I chose to make a interactive experience using Unreal Engine 4.
This short experience was made in a week with help of a LinkedIn learning seminar I followed.

HOWBOUTNO 2015 - 2017

HowBoutNo was a Duo I was in with Tim Renger, creating EDM music with the biggest stage in mind. 

Our biggest hit “Haters”  was supported by Martin Garrix and has a over 100.000 plays on Spotify.

We parted ways after 3 years of releasing music after a difference in artistic vision.
