OMIDAE

sound & scene

Based in Ojai, California. Inspired by rhythm, the indifference of the natural world, and what makes us laugh out loud.

Like so many artists… I’m looking for the rules so that I can break them.

My work lives somewhere between composition and instinct. I love the tension between chamber strings and heavy beats, between structure and improvisation, between something carefully written and something that almost falls apart. I don't make music to preserve tradition. I make it because I'm curious what happens when classical language collides with the present. I care less about polish than honesty, less about perfection than impact. Whether I'm composing, writing, or directing, I'm always chasing the same thing: rhythm, contrast, silence, release.
