Thomas Haines
Thomas Haines is a British composer and sound designer with a background in the outer reaches of classical and electro-acoustic music. Recent scores include Wolf King (Netflix), The Stimming Pool (Feature Documentary award winner at DOXA) and his virtuosic sound and music work on Quarantaine (Georgina Starr). His scores and sound design are effortlessly thematic, playful, dark and often magical.
Tom's early career includes performing Cage and Stockhausen and remixing Bjork, as well as making experimental live scores for shows at the National Theatre and RSC. He studied classical composition at the GSMD, London. Following this, Thomas has been making sound and score for film, TV, animation and Immersive audio for 25+ years with directors including Tom Brass, Georgina Starr, Smith and Foulkes, Sean Holmes, Patrick Goddard, Noor Afshan Mirza, Matthieu Landour, Steven Eastwood, Shezad Dawood, Jan Pinkava, Felix Massie, Laurie Rowan, and Fizzy Eye.
Thomas is only really tempted out of the studio by long-time collaborators Filter Theatre, the London Snorkelling Team (official orchestra of the London Institute of ‘Pataphysics) and his latest collaborative project Clay.fm
