New York based artist Nick Marks creates music that "seamlessly fuses elements of jazz, neo-soul, and electronica into a mesmerizing symphony that defies conventions." (Earmilk). His ethos is to provide a soundtrack for listeners that helps them feel energized and at ease, facilitating deep emotional connections to moments of everyday life.

A conservatory trained jazz and classical pianist and self taught composer, Marks combined his training with a deep passion and study of film scores and synthesizers. He blends the real with the surreal, designed to stimulate the soul, body and mind. Born in Melbourne, Australia, Marks grew up among that city's innovative musical scenes, absorbing the cross-pollination of jazz, neo-soul, R&B, funk, latin and hip-hop influences.

Having been the 'invisible hands' behind numerous film, tv and other media scores as composer, producer and musical director, Marks released his debut EP 'Cinematic Chromatics Vol. I' (2023), described as "a sonic masterpiece that will leave you craving more" (Earmilk). His releases received support on Spotify's "Fresh Finds Jazz" playlist, BBC, Jazzwise and Bandcamp Weekly. His music has been performed in iconic venues including Carnegie Hall.

Since moving to New York in 2016, Marks has firmly established himself as an in-demand composer, producer and musical director. He writes scores for feature film and tv, and is a frequent collaborator/arranger for various cross-genre artists. He's also written for notable Hollywood Companies, including Village Roadshow's logo sting in 2014.

2024 will see the release of Cinematic Chromatics Vols. II and III. In this trilogy, Marks further presents various aural mood boards that join the dots between genres, creating a sonic universe that is wholly his own. His music resonates with the full spectrum of emotions, a reflection of his view that life is multifaceted with layers of beauty and complexity.
