The music of cinematic composer Bryant Kane, under the alias Artifex, offers a refreshing blend of time-honored melodies and contemporary soundscape. With a foundation from childhood as a pianist and multi-instrumentalist, his musical inspirations span from the symphonic genius of Dvorak, Grieg, and Tchaikovsky, to modern maestros like Thomas Bergersen and Hans Zimmer. Alongside the orchestration, his compositions prominently blend electronic, world, and hard rock influences. The name “Artifex" -- practitioner of an art, craftsman, creator -- and symbolic emblem, inspired by a serendipitous play of light on a statue, reflect his approach to music: meticulously layering upon a silent canvas to build something greater than the sum of its parts. Through his creative endeavors, Artifex hopes not just to entertain, but to kindle creativity in others, celebrating the boundless potential of cinematic music as a tool for inspiration and growth.
