Adriaan Swerts received a classical music education and studied
the clarinet and the piano. Furthermore, he started to experiment with electronic instruments and taught himself various ways to
create new and innovative sounds. The combination of Adriaan's classical music education, his knowledge and experience with synthesizers, sound engineering and his imaginative mind results in a hybrid musical mixture that is ideal for all kinds of cinematic genres and visual styles.
