Composed original soundtrack music for a documentary film.

Musical contributions for the Finnish Zeitgeist-inspired documentary film Ajan henki. Not all tracks on this reel were included in the final soundtrack. In addition to original compositions created specifically for the film, SARANA live sets were used for selected scenes.

I also produced the Dolby Digital 3.1 mix for the final soundtrack and handled the post-processing of the audio.

Recording and Mixing of a Live Performance

This sample is from the second song of a three-song set performed by Muutos at the Gospel Savo event in 2009. The electronic drums were only available as a stereo mix, limiting the ability to balance them optimally. All other instruments were recorded on separate tracks.
