Lex van Dawn
Lex van Dawn (born March 4, 1988 ; bourgeois Alexander Schwarz ) is a German composer and music producer of orchestral and electronic music for film, television and video games.
Life
Alexander Schwarz grew up in the Baden-Württemberg city of Crailsheim . After completing his classical piano training, he moved to Munich in 2008 to study composition with Dieter Dolezel and Karsten Laser at the Akademie Deutsche POP . This was followed by a scholarship for film composition and at the same time contact with the computer manufacturer Apple , for which van Dawn also began to work. There he met the ivorysound founder Samir El Borno. Due to the strong mutual interest in film, soundtracks and sound design, it was only a matter of time before a collaboration would develop. Together they were able to prevail against 180 international composers in a tender for the trailer music for the game Ravaged in early 2012 .
In November 2012, this was followed by an invitation as nominees for the music award ceremony The Hollywood Music in Media Awards 2012 in Los Angeles , at which the two musicians received the award in the Best Score Movie / Game Trailer category.
In addition to his passion for film music , van Dawn also has a great interest in electronic music , where he is just as committed and recently produced a remix for the Hamburg dance label Mental Madness for the artist Thomas You .
