Ken Lampl's talent for composing music that captures the exact tone and pace of a film, and the emotional impact this has on the audience, is truly exceptional. His music breaths life into the characters of the movie, and then reaches out and emotionally connects with the audience, without ever being overbearing. What makes Ken Lampl even more rare is that his talent is only matched by his dedication and commitment to his work. He not only does his homework but delves into the very core of what we are trying to achieve. For every film, the director seeks the one gifted composer who will be able to understand his movie, understand the motives behind the characters' decisions, and deliver that unique score which will connect with the viewers and leave the audience breathless with what they have seen and felt. In Ken Lampl I am fortunate enough to have found that composer.

Kenneth Lampl created spine-tingling opening and closing themes for my third feature film, "Satan's Playground." He also composed many other beautifully haunting compositions and soundscapes for the movie. Kenneth provides me with something very unique...something that can't be bought on sample discs: Rich and dynamic orchestral compositions with epic exuberance, custom made to my needs. Kenneth is a spectacularly versatile musician. Brooding, ominous violins? Check. Frenzied, operatic percussion? Check. Moody, atmospheric synthesizer soundscapes? Check. Kenneth Lampl can do it all. For my latest film, "The Ocean" Kenneth has been composing eerie, otherworldly compositions and celestial choral pieces by interpreting and absorbing the mood of the apocalyptic screenplay. His instincts are dead-on. It's so reassuring to know that I am in good hands. I highly recommend Kenneth Lampl. I believe he is one of the greatest composers of our time.

...working with Ken on Kandisha has been quite intense. We were miles apart and yet I could feel him torturing himself over every note.. You need that in a film. You need people going the extra mile and taking chances every step of the way... Otherwise you take the risk of ending up with a big empty...

Ken has the kind of magic that belongs to a different era. It's enchanting yet there is something disturbingly personal beneath that makes you want to close your eyes and wonder...

Few composers can match Ken’s background, training and encyclopedic knowledge of music (and music theory)–but even fewer have an understanding, as Ken does, of how music works alongside the moving image. Ken has an extraordinary musical mind alongside a deep sensitivity to story and character: the true mark of a brilliant film composer.

Working with music, emotion and story is a highly nuanced (and often elusive) process. Ken attunes himself to the more ineffable elements of a film and somehow finds a way to augment scenes – story, rhythm, character and mood – with perfect, subtle and powerful balance.

Beyond his musical expertise, Ken is one of the best collaborators a filmmaker could hope to work with – he listens to your goals, finds a way into the heart of the film and walks the line of expert and crew member with unmatched grace. Often times in the edit, filmmakers get glued to "ideal" temp tracks and original scores take some getting used to – with Ken, the score blows the "perfect" temp track out of the water. Similar to the experience of a great writing moment, when characters begin to speak to the writer and dictate how the story proceeds, watching your film with Ken’s score has a similar quality: finally, your film slides into place — it appears. With the help of Ken’s ears and eyes, your film tells you exactly what it needs to be.

A musical prodigy in his own right, an excellent collaborator and a film enthusiast with the chops to submerge himself in any story, regardless of genre or mood, Ken Lampl envelops every one of his projects in musical gold.
