Pieter-Jan Goovaerts
Ghent
Pieter-Jan lives and writes music in Ghent, Belgium.
Some of his influences are Bruno Coulais, Philip Glass, Max Richter, Penguin Cafe Orchestra and Thomas J. Bergersen's Two Steps From Hell.
Previously Pieter-Jan produced a Campbell's Soup jingle for ad agency Young & Rubicam.
Listen to some of his nature documentary inspired scores like March of The Penguins or Watchmaker.
An epic trailer track with the working title High Seas.
Sydney Harbour is a tv jingle that would fit perfectly with an Olympic Games highlights montage.
Or try a few of his trademark sound logos.
As a one man orchestra, Pieter-Jan's favorite tools are Cubase and Native Instrument's Kontakt.
Having played the cello in both a symphonic orchestra and a school jazz band, he has a strong background in classical music and jazz.
Currently Pieter-Jan is seeking more opportunities in film scoring, producing trailer music, sound logos and jingles.
He likes science and science fiction and secretly hopes the urban designs of Luc and François Schuiten become real life someday.
