I’m Alex Symcox, a British-born composer creating original music for film from my studio in the Catskill Mountains of New York.

My scores have premiered at Venice, Tribeca, BFI London, New Orleans, Big Sky, San Francisco, Palm Springs, and Santa Barbara, with distribution on PBS, HBO Max, Apple TV, and Tubi, and press coverage in Vogue, The New Yorker, and Forbes, as well as Vimeo Staff Picks and Nowness features. Music licensed to daytime network documentary shows such as 20/20, Dateline, Impractical Jokers and the Peabody nominated podcast 'Scene on Radio'.

I built Creatures of Sound — a studio in the forest where I work closely with directors, editors, and producers. It’s a quiet retreat to experiment and refine story and sound, only a short trip from New York City but free of its distractions.

I approach each project as a search for new sounds — leaning into the unknown to discover a musical language that feels unexpectedly connected and deeply true to the story.
