I am born and raised in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

I love writing and producing music in any style I can master.
Studied guitar and producing at the Royal conservatory in The Hague.
With the cue's and soundtracks I write, I focus on Tv, Commercials, Games, Movies, and other media.
I study producing and songwriting every day, to get my productions still at a higher level.
Since 2012 I am slowly earning my place in the music media

to fit your needs? Le me know and we can discuss it.

Floris Bekker
At an early age I had already become interested in music. However, I only started playing guitar at the age of 16.
After playing on my own for a year, I decided it was time for a proper music education and therefore attended a local music school.
When introducing myself to my new teacher I said: "Hi, my name is Floris and I want to attend the conservatory."
After 3 years of studying guitar and finishing high school, I extendend my study with an additional 2 years. After that went to Amsterdam to study at a private jazz institute.
At the age of 24, persistant as I am, I was able to enroll into the conservatory in The Hague. Here I studied guitar and producing for 5 years.
I started songwriting at the age of 17 while playing in a rock (trio) band. Just for fun.
During my studies at the conservatory I started developing my songwriting skills. It was only after graduating I really gave it my full attention.
Now I'm focused on media music: film, tv, advertisement, games,ringtones etc.
Genres:
Rock, funk, soul, blues, soundtracks, pop, electronic or a combination of all these. I like to write music in any style I can master!
Next to composing I am a part time guitar teacher (2 full days a week consisting 30 pupils)
I am inspired by the following:
Rock:
Iron Maiden, Metallica, Ac/Dc, Anthrax, Pearl jam, Toto, Avenged Sevenfold, Seether etc.
Pop:
Phil Collins, Toto, Genesis, Paul Young, Counting Crows.
Funk:
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Blues:
Scott Henderson, Blues Brothers
Soul:
To many to mention...
Soundtracks:
Hans Zimmer, Alan Menken, Steve Jablonsky, any movie soundtrack I like
By taking guitar lessons I come into contact with many artists, young & old, former & new.
