Lance Bendiksen is an Emmy Award winning composer and music producer.  He’s worked on numerous acclaimed Films, TV soundtracks, and Recording industry projects.   

“For me, it’s all about musicality, emotion, and originality says Bendiksen.   Capture that, and add the right talent to your projects , and music will make its impact"   Bendiksen enjoys working with great live musicians as well as in the box, DAW productions, or combinations therein. 

What makes Bendiksen unique is his network of great engineers, musicians, recording alliances, alongside his ability to compose an endless stream of original music. Bendiksen elaborates,  “I encourage my clients to preview original concepts, themes and to allow music to speak to their goals before choosing a composer, music producer, studio, or library. it’s so important to preview themes, ideas, genre options, a particular tone and space for your film, show, or recording, then diving in headlong into production.  He will often send out dozens of ideas before recording first drafts of a score or studio production.  

"I’m also an advocate of great engineers," says Bendiksen.  "It’s essential to have great people on hit projects. With musicians, I’ll often play many of the parts in a production but sometimes only employ one live musician on his specialized instrument to employ his mastery and make it pop. There’s no one standard.  We’ve used full orchestras, single instruments, and everything in between.  We just finished two film scores that were all in the box and virtual. The landscape is wide so explore away.  

Bendiksen has worked with PBS, NPR, CBS, NBC, ABC, ESPN, Arista, RCA, and Capital Records, as well as many independent labels.  His engineers,  team of session players, and talent pool hold Grammy’s, Platinum and Gold Albums, an Emmy, and now an Oscar.
