About

Nicolas Snyder is a composer and sound artist living in Los Angeles, California. He was born and raised in rural Western Pennsylvania and studied short fiction at the University of Pittsburgh. He spent the rest of his 20s as a professional songwriter, recording and touring in various indie groups. In 2014 he moved to Los Angeles to pursue music composition for film and television. His television credits include Netflix’s UGLY DELICIOUS, Showtime’s SHANGRI-LA, FX’s CAKE, and FedEx "Dreams" ad, directed by Michel Gondry. He also works frequently in the realms of experimental animation, doing both sound design and scoring. In 2016 he and his partner, Emma Baiada, began working heavily in the field of observational documentary. He is an avid field recordist and uses his recordings compositionally to reach beyond traditional forms of song structure and tonality, focusing on the transportive nature of sound.
