Hi, I’m Ryan-Harvey Lawson, a passionate music composer currently pursuing a Master’s in Music and Audio-visual Media at the University of Liverpool and have a degree in Software Engineering from Edgehill University. As a musician and tech enthusiast, I hope to use the skills and knowledge from these two industries to create new and unique interactive music. With a deep love for video games and their immersive/interactive soundtracks, my dream is to create innovative and interactive music experiences that can enhance and make video games more immersive. By creating dynamic soundscapes or songs that can change with gameplay it creates an inertly new way music can be heard. I believe that the best video game music doesn’t just accompany the action—it interacts with it. I’m dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what interactive music can do in not just the gaming industry but any media. my passion for music extends beyond just video games. I’m also deeply interested in composing music for film and other forms of media. I believe that music plays an essential role in storytelling, whether it's evoking emotion, enhancing atmosphere, or highlighting key moments. The power of music to immerse an audience and add depth to visual narratives is something I am eager to explore. 

In addition to my passion for composing, I’m also a skilled guitarist and bassist. Both instruments have been a significant part of my musical journey, and I enjoy integrating them into my compositions to bring a rich, organic sound to my work. The guitar's versatility, from melodic leads to rhythmic support, allows me to add layers of depth and emotion to my music. Similarly, the bass guitar provides a solid foundation, driving the rhythm and adding groove to compositions, whether in video game soundtracks, film scores, or other media.

Through my work, I aim to create emotionally compelling compositions that resonate with audiences across various mediums—whether it’s through interactive video games, films, or other audio-visual projects. I want my music to engage not only the players or viewers but to become an integral part of the experience itself. My ultimate goal is to push the limits of what music can achieve, making it an essential element in storytelling and experience design across all forms of media.
