CRISTIAN COOKE
COMPOSITION & MUSIC PRODUCTION
I am a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and music producer working across different areas of sound creation. My work spans film scoring, functional music, video games, and original productions, combining musical sensitivity, technical expertise, and a contemporary creative approach.
PROJECTS
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK
Composition and production of the original score for the documentary The Hope Economy, a road movie featuring interviews and locations across different regions of the world. The music follows the film’s journey, creating themes and atmospheres tailored to each location, narrative, and context presented.
MIDI PROGRAMMING & ORCHESTRATION
MIDI programming and orchestral arrangements for Strong Delusion, the new album by Minas Gerais-based band Allos. The project involved enhancing the human feel, realism, and overall production quality of the orchestral arrangements created by the band, as well as composing and fully developing the orchestration for one of the album’s tracks.
LAND OF DREAMERS
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK
Land of Dreams is an instrumental composition influenced by Celtic music and culture, blending epic, relaxing, and inspiring elements. Created for a Game Audio Academy project, the track featured a live string orchestra recording and was later performed at an event with a full orchestral ensemble.
CASSIO TOLEDO MUSIC
RELAXING MUSIC
For the past six years, I have worked as a composer and music producer for some of the largest YouTube channels in the relaxation, meditation, and wellness segment. My work is part of a catalog featuring more than 700 hours of music and over 2.5 billion views in Brazil, with a strong presence on partner channels worldwide.
A LITTLE ABOUT MY JOURNEY
I have been a musician for over 35 years and have worked as a sound designer, composer, and music producer for the past eight years.
My work includes creating original scores for films, animations, and audiovisual projects, as well as composing, producing, and implementing audio for video games. I also develop orchestral and hybrid arrangements for bands, audio branding, audiobooks, and other content in which music and sound design play a direct role in supporting the narrative.
One of the projects I am involved in is Kuara, a functional music project focused on wellness, relaxation, and meditation, of which I am a partner. The project generates more than 500,000 monthly streams and is part of a catalog featuring over 700 hours of music.
I also produce music for some of the world’s leading channels in this segment, reaching audiences through content that has generated billions of views.
My approach combines organic instruments, orchestration, synthesizers, and ethnic elements, creating a hybrid musical language tailored to the unique sonic identity of each project.
ABOUT ME
OTHER PROJECTS
SULLY
ORIGINAL RESCORE FOR DRAMA
This rescore was created for a scene from Sully, using harmony, instrumentation, and dynamics to enhance its drama, tension, and suspense. The music was carefully shaped to support the narrative while keeping the dialogue at the forefront and preserving the tone and identity of the original film.
TELLURIAN
ORIGINAL SCORE FOR ACTION
This original score was created for the trailer of Tellurian as part of the Sonuscore score competition. Designed for an action-driven sequence, the music combines orchestral instruments, synthesizers, guitars, and cinematic textures to build tension, energy, and impact while supporting the pacing and dramatic intensity of the trailer.
DUO
ORIGINAL SCORE FOR SUSPENSE
This original score was composed for DUO, a suspense short film. The scene gradually shifts from an ordinary everyday setting into a more unsettling and uncertain atmosphere, moving through increasingly isolated spaces as the tension builds. The music follows this progression with a restrained approach, slowly increasing suspense and intensity while supporting the psychological tension and the scene’s final reveal.
