About Nicholas Horsten
Composer | South AfricaI am a media composer from Johannesburg, South Africa. My compositions explore the boundaries between the acoustic and the electronic with a sensitivity to craft and the moving image, while still maintaining a love for traditional composition. My classical guitar training fused with a passion for electronics creates a foundation for compositions with an idiosyncratic edge. I am always looking for the next project that will drive me towards musically unfamiliar territories. On top of that, I love ping pong.
