Marcus Warner is a composer, orchestrator and producer, born in 1996 and currently residing in Wiltshire, England. He has been composing music for more than 12 years, progressing through various genres of acoustic and electronic music and writing pieces that range from contemporary piano solos to full orchestral symphonies. He describes his aim as being ‘to produce epic and uplifting music that raises the heart’, and sets himself on making work of an exceptional quality which surpasses itself with each release. His music has been used and commissioned by producers, broadcasters and filmmakers internationally; has been heard on more than 150 websites spanning more than 60 countries and receiving more than 1,000,000 listens over the course of 12 months. Almost fundamentally reliant on donations, Marcus has been able to rise to a professional standard of production through the generosity of his fans and a part-time job as a waiter in the country village of Market Lavington, which has enabled him to purchase industry-standard VSTs such as EastWest’s Hollywood Strings and Native Instruments’ Massive. Marcus’ debut album Grand Flying Machines, one of his only works which hasn’t been released for free, has received incredible feedback since its release in October 2013 and in 3 months grossed over $1,300. Some of the feedback on the album can be found on its Bandcamp release, and it it is also available on iTunes, Amazon and nearly 30 other international online distributors. Over the course of the past two years, Marcus has been working with and recording a variety of musicians to bring his orchestral scores to life, and is currently in the process of producing a wider range of vocal works, recording both himself and other artists. He has worked with other producers and mixed acoustic grand pianos, student choirs and strings to create an exceptional standard of symphonic music and is experimenting with a blend of orchestral instruments and synthesisers. Marcus plays the piano, French horn and guitar, and collects a variety of world instruments such as the Kalimba, the Hulusi, and the Accordietta Meazzi; he enjoys the quiet country life of Wiltshire and a strong cup of tea.
