Matthew Walker

Establishing himself as an accomplished pianist, vocalist and skilled composer throughout the UK, Canadian and Swedish gaming scene, Matthew has quickly cemented his name further in the networks of film, documentaries and radio. Specialising in orchestral, emotive and visual music, it is with this understanding and foundation that Matthew is able to apply his skills so effectively to varying genres and projects.

"Music for me doesn't have to be complicated, it simply has to move the listener: it's all about emotion. Music to me is also about interpretation and experimentation, trying new things and turning mistakes into anchors”.

Never one to deflect the idea of using a tin whistle through a bass amp or layering a didgeridoo with a harmonica; experimentation goes a long way to achieving fresh and unusual sounds that can define a piece a music.
Being a great composer is more than being able to compose - Matthew acknowledges skill in rapport and communication as without these two crucial benefactors, the composition process would simply break down for sure.

Collaboration is key to achieving the desired result; understanding the needs of the project is the first thing on his mind.
