hans platzgumer
soundtracks

hans platzgumer's radio work, film and theatre scores and soundtracks
support the action, the images and moods by versatile means. In the more than 50 scores he produced thus far, he combined a large array of analogue and digital instruments. He uses whatever the script and staging calls for, elaborate electronica, driving guitars, fragile mandoline or piano melodies, archaic drums or minimal soundscapes, always assembled in his very unique musical style and sometimes combined with catchy vocal melodies or full orchestration.
