Connor Helms is a young, award-winning contemporary Classical composer from Arizona who draws on an eclectic palette of musical influences. An aficionado of non-Western music, nearly all of his works have a tinge of various cultures without sounding cliched or gimmicky. Connor has a particular affinity for Japanese, Chinese, and other Eastern musical styles, which shows through in his more traditional-sounding ethnic pieces. He currently works as an orchestrator and composer of film and game music, and he also produces Electronic tracks.
Connor Helms won the 2012 Jack Stone Award for New Music "Three Entities of Ether," as well as the same award in 2013 for "Archaeogenetix." His World music highlights include: "Percussion Quintet for Chinese Instruments," "Famine for Balinese Gamelan Kebyar," and "Mt. Fuji Serenades" -- a collection of works for various solo Japanese instruments. Able to write for chamber ensembles or extremely large orchestras, he can get either a typical cinematic style or more haunting and dissonant contemporary Classical style from either. A true master of timber and color!
A cascading and tumultuous marimba, a piercing and fluid oboe, and a powerful cello coalesce for an African rhythm inspired delirium. Its dizzying minimalist cells make for great psychotic and mental breakdowns of any genre, whether comedy or horror. Atonal and neo-tonal madness! Instrumental, Horror, Horror Psychological
A brooding soundscape, followed by a drawn out passage of orchestral hits. Unrelenting, unforgiving, the hits just won't stop. Faster and faster, darker and darker, the chords growing more gruesome. Ends with a drawn out dissonant piano. Perfect for slasher flicks, stabbing scenes, gore scenes, Instrumental, Horror, Horror Action Intense
Diabolic shadows float by. The nocturnal creatures are out, but the moon is not. A vigorous piano harmonics rhythm, bowed vibraphone screeches, conch shell tone flute, clarinet barrel pops, screechy bridge bowed contrabass, and animal cries by blowing glissandi through a removed bassoon. Instrumental, Horror, Halloween Horror
A modified Pierrot Lunaire ensemble. A melancholic atmosphere lays out the scene of a small town with dark secrets. The haunting melody in the solo piano slowly builds as marimba, then viola, trumpet, contrabass, and finally winds are added. Somber winds and high strings build to a vibraphones fade. Instrumental, Horror, Horror Contemplative
A piano, upright bass, and clarinet are caught in a mutli-dimensional journey. From dark and haunting child-like piano melodies, to driving African rhythms, to beautiful clarinet solos and more - a perfect track that is easy to cut up for any game or film in the thriller or horror genre! Instrumental, Horror, Gothic Moderate
A clash right at the start; the full force of the chamber orchestra with a dissonant sustaining piano chord. Next odd timbers (such as bowed bridge on contrabass) lay over a bed of dissonant and haunting woodwind backing. Dark vibraphone middleground to top it off, Instrumental, Horror, Horror Edgy
