Sound that tells a story.

I started producing in 2013, developing my own sound in electronic music. What began as creative exploration grew into a serious music project, collaborations with other artists and releases connected to international labels.

My releases are connected to Warner Music, Spinnin' Records and Armada Music, and my music has passed 20 million plays and views on Spotify, YouTube and other platforms. I try to combine a modern electronic sound with strong melody, atmosphere and production details that give a song its own identity.

For me, production has never been only about choosing the right sounds or gear. It means understanding the idea and the feeling behind it, and connecting every element into something greater than the sum of its parts. I bring the same approach to working with other artists today.

I work with Otvoreni Radio in Zagreb as an external Senior Audio Producer, creating and shaping sound for the station's programme every day. Radio is where creativity meets very concrete technical demands: you often have just a few seconds to catch the listener's attention and get the message across.

• Radio imaging and audio branding for the station, its shows and programme elements
• Jingles, sweepers and promos that tie music, voices and effects together
• Music for radio: beds, transitions and other musical elements
• Commercials and promotions that turn scripts into complete audio stories
• Voice recording and processing, editing and fitting voices into the final mix
• Sound design and complex mixing of layers, space and dynamics

I especially love ads that sound like small film scenes. Instead of just reading the message over a music bed, I use sound to build space, movement and atmosphere, so every effect, transition and moment of silence has a purpose. Radio taught me how to turn a creative idea into a production that works in real broadcast conditions, not just in the studio.

Video games offer something rare: sound that doesn't just play in front of the audience, but around them. It can reveal a danger the player can't see yet, create a feeling of isolation or safety, and give character to people, objects and places. What draws me most is building a world that feels convincing even when the player isn't consciously thinking about sound.

I work on sound design, effects, ambiences and music shaped around a game's atmosphere and mechanics. I try to understand not only how a sound should sound, but why it's needed, what it tells the player and what it should make them feel.

I'm currently creating the music and sound design for the indie game Covert Koalas: Phasco, where every location and situation gets its own sound instead of a generic solution. Alongside that I'm deepening my work in FMOD, so sound can react to what the player does instead of staying a pre-recorded backdrop.

I founded Spruce Productions in 2022 to bring my experience in music, radio and sound design together in one place. The idea is simple: quality audio production built on understanding the project, clear communication and attention to detail. I can take on one part of a production or several stages, from the first idea to the final mix.

• Sound design: effects, textures and sound identities
• Game audio: sound design, ambiences and music for games
• Composition: original music for a scene, story or project
• Production and arrangement: from an idea to a finished song
• Mixing and mastering with a focus on clarity, balance and dynamics
• Audio editing and post-production
• Audio for ads and media: promos, videos and other formats

I produce, arrange and mix in Cubase and FL Studio, and use FMOD for interactive audio. Tools matter, but knowing what you want to achieve matters more.

Whether it's a song, an ad or a game, it starts with understanding the idea: what the project is trying to achieve, what it should make people feel, and who it's for. Only then do I choose a creative direction. I pay attention to details and to the bigger picture, because a technically perfect mix isn't enough if it doesn't carry the right emotion. Clear communication, real openness to feedback and room to experiment matter to me.

Music taught me to think about emotion, structure and identity. Radio taught me precision, pace and a clear message. Games pushed me toward interactive storytelling. I don't just want to make something that sounds good. I want there to be a reason it sounds exactly the way it does.

I work remotely and I'm open to collaborations with musicians, game developers, studios, agencies and brands, in Croatia and internationally. If you have an idea that needs the right sound, I'd love to hear about it.

Sound with purpose, character and story.
