About Kaspar Noé
IT STARTED WITH
Passion For Violin & Electronic Music
For Music & Emotion, For The Deeper Meaning Of Sound
I am Kaspar Noé, a cinematic music composer and audio engineer based in Amsterdam. My sound blends orchestral elements with electronic textures, trying to shape sonic landscapes that draw listeners into deep, emotional journeys. Whether it’s the sweeping emotion of strings or the raw energy of synthesis, I aim to take listeners on a journey – one that feels both epic and deeply personal.
Music has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started with the violin and played in a youth orchestra, heavily inspired by classical composers like Mozart. Everything changed when I visited Ibiza as a teenager. At the time, I was more focused on sports, but that trip reignited my passion for music in a completely different way. Electronic music drew me in with its hypnotic rhythms and endless sound design possibilities. That’s when I started experimenting with spinning records and producing music on a computer, and I realized this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
To develop my skills, I studied Music Production and Sound Engineering at Middlesex University London and SAE Institute Amsterdam. I didn’t just focus on composing, I dove deep into sound design, recording, mixing, and mastering, which gave me a whole new appreciation for the technical side of music. I love being hands-on with every aspect of my sound, ensuring every layer, texture, and frequency sits exactly where it needs to be for my taste.
My journey hasn’t been without challenges. At one point, I suffered an ear injury that seriously affected my hearing – something that felt like hell as a musician. I had to go through a long recovery process, including stem cell treatments to restore my hearing. That experience completely changed my perspective on sound. I became hyper aware of the smallest details in sound, and what I meant to actually be able to hear frequencies – it pushed me to refine my audio passion even further. In a way, I came out of it with an even deeper connection to my work and it’s meaning.
My transition into cinematic music started with my Web3 superhero project, Captain Inu, inspired by my love for Marvel and DC Comics. Through that, I discovered a passion for hybrid orchestration – merging orchestral arrangements with electronic elements to create a unique, modern cinematic sound. It felt like I was bridging my past and future selves, combining my classical roots with the limitless potential of electronic music.
Now, I am pushing the boundaries of my sound and shifting my focus toward storytelling in media through music. I want to create music that resonates on an emotional level – something that stays with you long after you’ve heard it. Every piece I make is a reflection of my journey – my influences, my struggles, and my passion for sound.
For me, music isn’t just something I do – it’s who I am. And I’m just getting started.
