I have a deep understanding of the emotional impact of sound and music capabilities. As a music producer and sound designer with more than 15 years in the music industry, my work includes music composition, recording, arranging, production, sound design, post-production, corporate audio branding as well as tuition. I have delivered works for ballet, exhibitions, stage productions, brands and digital media. From the technical precision of interactive exhibitions and ballet to audio branding and pop music production, I focus on creating sound that takes the shape of its context and supports meaning, emotion and/or function, whether experienced live or reproduced. A central part of my practice is creating clarity where direction is unclear. I translate abstract ideas, references or intentions into structured, deliverable sound solutions that meet both creative and technical requirements.

    Music Composition and Sound Design for an art exhibition 👩‍🎨

    I was invited to create a soundscape for an art exhibition of my friend and visual artist Alyona Movko-Mägi. Sonically my goal was to create experience of marsh (SOO) in the gallery in the centre of Tallinn, which teleported you away to the nature. I have recorded, composed and arranged music, designed sound effects and built a system of dimensional sound according to room’s acoustic features. The exhibition was on for 5 months and the feedback on sound has been amazing.
