Music | Franco Esteve
LATEST RELEASE: A Moment of Madness, the theme song to the short film series, Fragments of Madness, is NOW AVAILABLE!.
“The perfectly formulated mix is a match with Franco ’s artfully cinematic compositional style, revealing his distinctive personality and his ability to blend in different styles so seamlessly… The listening experience is unparalleled, revealing the artist’s passion and care for creating quality music that will undoubtedly stand the test of time… If you like atmospheric ambient music with a more organic feel, this one is for you.” – The Bandcamp Diaries review of “A Moment of Madness“, April 15th, 2022.
Music is an integral part of my creative process, creating it, listening to it, thinking about it. It is yet another expression of beauty that has been part of my life since a very young age, having composed music and played piano throughout most of my life. It was after filming Reaction, The Doll Chronicles, that I realized I had created much more than the theme, but music that served my idea of The Doll Chronicles quite well. So, I set out to create more music for the films, some of which ended up as the score for Paranoia, The Doll Chronicles and for Consequence, The Doll Chronicles and Apocalypse, The Doll Chronicles. From there, I’ve explored other musical areas and continue to release other music in multiple genres and for other projects. You can find all my current releases here:

Though my initial releases were focused on scoring for films, and I do have a special love for the genre, I’ve never thought of myself tied down to it. I love to explore all genres of music and even beyond them. As I mention in my biography, a single playlist can jump from Nine Inch Nails to Beethoven to Snoop Dogg to Led Zeppelin to The Ink Spots to John Barry to She Wants Revenge.
“Esteve has composed a glistening tune that is simultaneously diaphanous and sensitive, yet emancipated and emotive.” – Huffington Post review of The Wait.
With the music single releases, the Mallorca 360 Season 1 Soundtrack and 2019’s contemporary classical crossover music concept album, The Hunt, I’ve certainly moved beyond the films and begun to explore other stories and expressions with my releases. No matter what though, the focus is always on beauty, on expression, on communicating, on the story, on the feeling. It’s one of the things I love about music, how it expresses itself so variedly and how it can incite all sorts of feelings and interpretations upon the listener. It’s yet another form of seeking and expressing beauty in all its variants.
“The true magic of “The Hunt” is that Franco Esteve, with all his cinematic dexterity did not compose this music as a background to any film. Rather, he composed as a backdrop to life itself…” – JamSphere Magazine review of The Hunt.
