プロフィール

ダルトンの音楽との旅は、13歳のクリスマスに初めてギターをもらったことから始まった。その後、彼が完全に音楽に没頭し、ギターの習得に専念するまでにそう時間はかからなかった。ミュージシャンになってからのダルトンの最大の関心は、自分で曲を書くことだった。この情熱は、彼の音楽キャリアの形成期に様々なバンドで演奏し、作曲する中で育まれていった。やがて、オーケストラやサウンドトラック音楽への愛が彼の中で開花し、最終的には映像メディアのための作曲家としての道を追求するようになった。2017年から2021年まで、彼は作曲とオーケストレーションの技術を個人指導者の下で学んだ： JJay Berthume。作曲家としての活動に加え、ダルトンはレコーディング・エンジニア、ミキシング・エンジニアとしても幅広く活躍している。数十組のインディペンデント・アーティストのレコーディングやミキシングを手がけ、アーティストやソングライターとしての野心を追求する手助けをしてきた。2016年、彼はイリノイ芸術大学シャンバーグ校を卒業し、オーディオ制作の学士号を取得した。

Bio

Dalton's journey with music started after receiving his first guitar for Christmas when he was 13 years old. It did not take much time after that until he was completely immersed in music, putting all his effort into learning the guitar, with piano and voice following shortly after.Since becoming a musician, Dalton's biggest interest has always been writing original music. This passion developed while playing and writing in several different bands during the formative years of his musicianship. Eventually, a love for orchestral and soundtrack music blossomed within him, which ultimately led him to begin pursuing his path as a composer for visual media. During the years of 2017-2021, he studied the craft of music composition and orchestration under the instruction of his private mentor: JJay Berthume.In addition to his work as a composer, Dalton has also worked extensively as a recording and mixing engineer. He has recorded and mixed music for several dozen independent artists, helping them pursue their ambitions as performers and songwriters. In 2016, he graduated from the Illinois Institute of Art-Schaumburg, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Audio Production.
