Hi, I'm Florian Daniel Knapp, a composer for film and media music with a focus on hybrid orchestral colors, electronic textures and atmospheric worldbuilding. I'm positioning myself for Game Music, especially for indie and small teams, delivering loop-ready cues, stems and mood-precise music packs that integrate well with interactive systems. My strengths include hybrid scoring (orchestra colors + synths + sound textures), atmosphere and tension (ambient drones, rhythmic drive, textural work and field recordings), theme writing and leitmotifs, and professional production (arrangement, editing, mixing). I work mainly in Ableton Live, with Cubase, and handle recording/editing, resampling and sound-texturing; I'm open to middleware integration for game or interactive media projects, acknowledging that current credits are in film/doco/dance rather than game credits.
