Kiley Norton is a NYC based composer who has written scores for feature films, short videos and commercials. His music blends the raw, visceral textures of live sound with electric, driving rhythms produced by analog synthesizers. This careful interplay between natural and unnatural elements, along with creative instrumentation and volatile shifts in volume, provide crucial support for the overlying narrative on screen and express a wide range of emotional color. His ability to balance powerful themes with tactful restraint allow his scores to breathe effortlessly with the story and remain sensitive to the subtleties of tension and release.
