Composing immersive music for games, film and virtual worlds. Also available for session musician work.
ABOUT
Cleo, a talented composer, immersed in music from a young age. With an insatiable curiosity for various instruments, Cleo confidently plays drums, guitar, bass guitar, and piano. Through these instruments, Cleo weaves masterpieces that speak volumes, conveying emotions and stories without uttering a single word. Constantly exploring new sounds and harmonies, Cleo's music resonates with listeners, evoking a myriad of feelings and connecting souls through the universal language of music. Growing up as an autistic individual, music became a way of communicating without having to say anything at all. She believes the power of sound and composition convey emotions indescribable by words alone, and through her music hopes to share this.

PROJECTS
When composing new tracks, Cleo takes inspiration from current video games/films, using this as the driving force, giving the song direction and backstory. Unlike others, she doesn't take inspiration from within herself, yet the world around her, and is fascinated by how people and elements interact with one another. She tells someone else's story, not her own, giving people a way to communicate without words.
Cleo works with other musicians to create unique and empowering tracks. This particular one stemmed from a simple guitar loop, then layered with another slight variation, and another on top of that. The track was then adjusted and altered to fit singer/songwriter 'Gracie de Wolfe's' style.
Taking inspiration from the Indie game series Life is Strange, and others such as Outer Wilds, Firewatch and Night In The Woods, Cleo uses simple melodies, overlapped in complex ways, signifying that two isolated elements can mean something completely new and incredible when blended artistically and carefully.
This was an experimental audio piece, representing the start of a new chapter but created with the intention of another artist finishing it. Cleo works mainly with/for other people, using her creative and interpretation abilities to help shape what artists/songwriters want to achieve, and convert it to sound.
