Welcome to DNA
DNA Musics primary aim is to create the most original music in the Film & Television industry and to provide a personal service to producers and directors throughout the whole life of a production, from suggesting composers and music at script-stage through to scoring and final delivery. Where possible we like to be involved early so that we can work in partnership and achieve the creative vision of the director. Our composers are experienced across all genres of production and will deliver exactly what you want.
