Jeffrey van Rossum composer

WORK

ABOUT

Jeffrey van Rossum is a film composer based in Utrecht, the Netherlands. Music is about telling a story with sound. Every story, whether it's a commercial or a 10 episode TV series needs it's own world of sound. That's why I've sampled typewriters, telephone sounds and sinister laughs in De Kuthoer. A film about a columnist who's being threatened on social media and seeks revenge. I've used kitchenware as percussion in Soof, where the main character is a cook. I love themes and melodies. Stories should be memorable, music should be memorable. I love development of music within the story. Stories develop, characters develop, music should develop too.
