Paul Haslinger is an Austrian musician and composer based in Los Angeles.
"When the OMI Universe of Soundlibrary for the Emulator II was first released in 1986, it was a game changerfor many musicians, including myself. These soundshave lost none of their vibe and magic. I am grateful to Q Up Arts and RhythmicRobot for making them available in this new Kontakt Instrument!"
Paul began his career as a member ofElectronic Music pioneers Tangerine Dream. He toured with the band extensivelyfrom 1985-90 and contributed to projects such as the album “UnderwaterSunlight” (1986), as well as the films “Near Dark” (1987) and “Miracle Mile”(1988). In 1990, the band received a Grammy Nomination for their score to theMiramar Documentary ‘Canyon Dreams’. Paul moved to Los Angeles in 1991 to expandhis creative scope. This led to a number of collaborations and began to shifthis focus towards film scoring. It was his programming work for composer GraemeRevell that caught the attention of Hollywood executives which lead to hisfirst solo credit, scoring HBO’s Cheaters in 2000. Paul’s unique approach to scoring is based onhis belief that, music in any genre, including film and television, shouldrepresent and be relevant to the time in which it was written.He received an Emmy nomination for his work onthe Showtime Series ‘Sleeper Cell’ (2007)
