What People Are Saying

  • The music [we needed] had to have an epic trailer feel but also had to sound like orchestral versions of tunes from the [video] game, which composer Derek Palmer accomplished so perfectly.”

    James Rolfe [Cinemassacre] on “Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde: The Game: The Movie

  • “Derek was a pleasure to work with. Ultra quick communicator and he was very attentive to all the project requirements. Derek really knows his stuff when it comes to the specific genre of the dark mythical film I made. He took the pains to match his compositions to the specific beats of the film. Highly recommended to anyone who is seeking original film score, as well as top class foley (sound) work.”

    Damian [Media/Film Producer]

  • “Your "A Hero Shall Rise" was perfect for my book trailer. It rounded out the epic presentation we were going for. Thank you and great work!”

    Nancy Kimball [Author]

  • “Derek Palmer has been an absolutely invaluable asset to my work. Not only has he provided me with music that would qualify for Hollywood productions, but he's also taken the time and care to explain a number of different options to me. He is a guy that goes above and beyond. I haven't yet found something that he can't do. Just phenomenal.”

    Rob Dyk [Media/Film Producer]

  • I couldn't ask for a better composer to work with. Great communicator, great creative vision (often able to bounce off each other to create the best score possible) and in general a great guy. Hope to work with Derek again someday soon and would instantly recommend him to anyone looking for an awesome soundtrack to complement their film!
