Matt Jantzen
Matt Jantzen was born in 1981 in Geneva, Switzerland. He started composing film music in 2006 and now has a total of around 60 full features films, short movies, documentaries and advertising since his first score for "La Vraie Vie d'Arthur" (which he co-composed with fellow composer and famous Swiss pianist Eric Bakhch-Pour). He scored his first full feature film "Born of Earth" in 2008 and then continued to score short movies the following years. Many of his short movies scores, including "The Last Rung on the Ladder", "Abyss", "She", "The Wound", "Picturesque", "The Remains of Clayton Lake" and "Death Crocodile", were well received from the public, movie critics and in film festivals. Among his next compositions one can find the score for a documentary on the "Saw" franchise, the acclaimed short films "Sundays" and "Fuoco" and segments from the comedy anthology "Movie 43" starring Hugh Jackman, Dennis Quaid, Chris Pratt, Chloë Grace Moretz and Richard Gere that directly lead him to return scoring full feature horror film as "After Midnight", "The Blackout", the TV movie "Demon Legacy" and the acclaimed crime drama "Savior of None" in 2014. Then Matt scored several feature films as "No Solicitors", "The Encounter", "Edgar Allan Poe's Lighthouse Keeper", "Residue", "Havana Darkness", "Hitchhiker Massacre", "Ravers", "This Old Machine", "Freshwater", "Exit 18" and some additional music works for "13 Eerie", "Sorority Party Massacre" and more recently the theatrical release "Distorted" starring Christina Ricci and John Cusack. He also provided some atmospheric drone music to the Netflix TV Show "Black Summer". Among his latest work one can find the scores to the horror film "It Hungers", the monster movies "Abominable" and "Amityville Island", the critically acclaimed horror / thriller "Red Handed", segments from the horror anthology "Horror Nights" and the action / horror movie "Shadow in the Cloud" starring Chloë Grace Moretz.
