ABOUT
Multi-instrumentalist and award-winning film and game composer Sean Sigfried (more known by the alias SeanSecret) has written music for several award winning projects such as short films, games, commercials and his own concept albums.
Known for mixing the “epic orchestral” genre with other genres left and right – he shows great proficiency in a variety of musical styles. Anything from electro house to big band jazz or even classical film scoring proves to be a non-issue.
Sean had his humble beginnings as a young boy not wanting to leave the movie theater – just to listen to the music playing over the credits. He realized that maybe making music himself was something to look in to. He later went on to study music production in high school and video game music composition at university. He is now a working media composer writing music for films and games.
In addition to being a musician he is also an accomplished photographer and the occasional filmmaker and gamedev in his spare time. In 2018 he won the award for Best Original Music at Sweden’s second largest film festival for his musical short “What Should I do?” - and in 2022 he won an award for Best Soundtrack at the Vertigo Film Fest in Milano, Italy for his work on “Everything About The Actual Difference” directed by Anton Forsdik.

Stories of Other Worlds
Each song represents a certain feeling and was written during various tough events in my life that happened in 2019 and early 2022. I didn't really intend for it to become an album - but since all the songs have a similar theme to them I though they made for a nice collection of songs.
