Hey there — I’m Richard Dobeson, Composer & Producer based in Madrid 🇪🇸 / Irish‑Spanish roots
Who I am:
With over 35 years of dedicated musical practice and a lifetime immersed in sound, I bring a deeply emotional, fusion-driven style to every project. My creative journey blends classical clarity with electronic modernity, shaped by early training in guitar, piano, harmony, and film scoring under the guidance of masters like Jorge Cabadas, David Gwynn, Nano Rivarola, and Goya-winning Eva Gancedo at Escuela de Música Creativa in Madrid
What I’ve done:
- Crafted cinematic compositions featured in visual media, trailers, documentaries, YouTube re-scores, and more.
- Performed as guitarist for Dani Martín (El Canto del Loco) on studio recordings and live shows
- Released multiple EPs and singles—including Call Of Dreams, Elysium Bliss, Deep Heart, Wild Flower, Seventy‑Seven, The Knight’s Way, Gentle Spark, Summer Peace, and most recently Quantum Echoes—all evolving toward a cinematic neo‑classical‑electronic sound world
My style & skills:
- I blend orchestral songwriting (strings, choir, acoustic guitar) with immersive electronic textures—creating emotionally charged, cinematic soundscapes rooted in neo‑classical, progressive, ambient and art‑rock genres
- Trained in Ear Training, Piano, Composition, Arranging, Harmony, and Film Scoring, I bring a composer’s sophistication combined with modern studio production fluency.
What sets me apart:
- Emotive storytelling through music—I compose with the belief that “music is 90 % of the emotion in a film,” designing every note to elevate visuals and stir feelings.
- Proven versatility—from solo releases to scoring trailers, game music, documentaries, and collaborating with high-profile artists.
- Soul-infused authenticity—my Irish‑Spanish heritage and personal musical evolution deeply connect me to the themes of unity, peace, and creative expression.
What I’m offering on Twine:
- Bespoke original soundtracks and score highlights for films, games, commercials, trailers, or branded media.
- Audiovisual projects (including weddings) where music drives emotional resonance.
- A polished, professional workflow including concept development, composition, production, delivery in professional formats, and collaborative revisions.
Let’s collaborate if you are looking for:
- Emotionally‑rich, cinematic music tailored to your project’s narrative or brand.
- A composer-producer who fuses classical artistry with electronic innovation.
- Someone who brings decades of experience and a deeply personal musical voice.
