I'm David Hulsken,
music composer
Music brings imaginary worlds to life. Even with your eyes closed, you can wander into places beyond words. Music and sound have huge impact on our brains and stimulate imagination, memory and emotion. That’s why music is my great passion and I enjoy to take your dream, your story to a higher level.

About me
I’ve loved music for as long as I can remember. As a little kid I used to play records on my dad’s pick-up player and was intrigued by jazz, blues and world music. I wanted to develop my musical skills and chose the piano as a starting point. Later I discovered electronic music and began buying and playing records. Since then I’ve been performing both electronic music and instrumental music all over the world.
My love for synthesizers, has resulted in a special collection that I use for my composing jobs.

What I Do
Music composing & production
01.
Soundtracks
A soundtrack is a song (or several) that is composed for a film or documentary. The music usually also appears in the film, but is a stand-alone piece of music, which is usually released around the premiere of the film. A good soundtrack captures the vibe of the movie.
02.
Filmscores
A film score is the combination of all the pieces of music in a film or documentary that support the script. This music is composed specifically for the scene you see. It gives the story its own unique atmosphere and character. Without it, there’s no magic.
03.
Sounddesign
Sound design makes filmscenes more intense and dramatic, like the squeaking sound of a door that opens or a car that crashes. It also enhances emotional scenes, for example if someone is frightened. Sound design is what makes moving images captivating.
04.
Recordings
Do you have a passion for music, but no space and equipment to take it to the next level? Book a day in the studio and together we will get the best out of our mutual love for music. Not only will we have an awesome time; at the end of the day you will be the creator of your own track!
05.
Soundlogos
Did you know that sound is one of the most impactful tools in marketing? A sound logo is a music fragment, composed specifically for your brand. This way, your brand will unconsciously stick in someone’s memory long after they saw or heard your commercial.
06.
Jingles
Producing a podcast, a commercial or a television program? Ofcourse you want to stand out! With a recognizable jingle you literally give your production it’s own sound. A jingle enhances recognition and attracts the attention of your audience.
