Elende Usiv
Film music composer
I'm Elende Usiv, a Cologne-based composer and music editor for media who has
worked on films and commercials.
You can hear some of my music on YouTube, Soundcloud and Spotify.
At the same time as my film music career, I composed and arranged many pop songs for various Kurdish singers.
who have supported my journey and career as a film music composer.
Film music has always been the main subject of many fundamental questions, as it is an essential element of a film.
Film music could always play an important role in shaping the final version of the film, in addition to carrying
the film's narrative context.
To understand and appreciate the role of music in the process of film's dramatic construction, we need only watch a
film without a soundtrack.
Several times I tried not to separate music and image in the works I presented and to find artistic connections between
the two elements, by composing pieces of music inspired by the image.
This element wasn't missing from the pop songs
I worked on either.
Through my work, I strive to create a new state of harmony between organic music which created by humans and electronic
music (synthesizers), incorporating them into music pieces that serve the narrative context of my compositions.
Being familiar with oriental music, I have used ethnic instruments such as duduk and oud partly, along with classical
orchestra and electronic contexts.
