Suntapes is musician, composer and producer Tomas Vanderplaetse. His compositions are atmospheric soundtracks merging neo-classic, minimal, dark electronics and ethnic music.
Tomas produces soundtracks for live performances, documentaries, films and immersive experiences. He’s on a constant quest to find the right musical atmosphere for each visual story. In a more poetic way one could say that he sees sound. As a classically schooled pianist Tomas developed his own neo-classic style on the grand piano. While traveling he gathered and learned to play a lot of ethnic instruments. More special sauce is added in his music through experimentation with effects and analog synthesizers.
As much as recording in the studio Suntapes loves to perform live. You can book him for a solo neo-classical piano set or a with a complete audiovisual show. Suntapes also produces audiovisual art installations. Check out the studio session:

Diverse atmospheric musical reflections of wild country side. The pictures I once took early in the morning in the east of Taiwan keep bringing me back. Wild Country, that’s where I want to be. Enjoy the diverse atmospheric sound, disappear from the hectic life and stay in Wild Country for 17 minutes.
