Background

About David Varela

Having always been deeply involved with music, it was only a matter of time before I surrendered to the world of music production. I started my journey with eletronic music, but soon began exploring new musical genres personally and professionally, working with multiple artists in a music production studio environment. These experiences prompted a very diverse and profound musical development. In order to develop skills as a producer and musician, I attended the degree in Music - Electronic Music and Music Production at ESART where I developed skills in programming and music production. After one year I applied to ESMAE, where I completed my studies in Music - Music Production and Technologies. I am currently completing the Master`s Degree in Multimedia at FEUP, with a specialization in interactive music and sound design. My main goal is to further my expertise in functional music and sound composition for video games, as well as their implementation in a programming environment. I have been fortunate enough to work on various small-scale video game projects in the past, where I was responsible for all aspects of sound production.
