JORDAN DYKSTRA on SoundBetter

Awarding-winning composer of full-length/short film (esp. documentary, horror), TV (PBS), and chamber music (throughout Europe and North America). I am also an arranger (strings, orchestra), performer (viola, percussion, keyboard), conductor, and audio engineer (recording, editing, mixing, mastering).

I specialize in composing chamber music (with and without electronics) for media. Highlights include 2023 Sundance Award-winning film about the Ukrainian invasion 20 DAYS IN MARIUPOL (FRONTLINE), psychological horror film IT COMES AT NIGHT (A24), narrative dramatic film BLOW THE MAN DOWN (Amazon Studios), quirky documentary HAIL SATAN? (Magnolia Pictures), and the 2-part 2019 Emmy-award-winning dramatic documentary DOCUMENTING HATE (PBS Frontline/ProPublica). My compositions for film have been heard at Cannes, Sundance, TriBeCa, the Toronto International Film Festival, and the International Film Festival Rotterdam, amongst others, and my musical work with animation has been screened at Art Basel.

    What luck finding Jordan! From the beginning, he committed himself not only to understanding the vision of the scenes that required score, but of this film as a whole. Communication was so easy, he listened carefully to our direction and then went beyond it, creating something better than we imagined. Great collaborative experience!
