BARNIR

Last updated: 4 hours ago

BARNIR is the project name of Dutch composer, producer, and pianist Barnier Geerling, known for his cinematic compositions that blend orchestral elements with modern, textural sounds. Barnier developed a passion for music early on, starting to compose at the age of nine on his Amiga 500. This early engagement with electronic music production laid the groundwork for his style, which combines classical and electronic influences.

In his teenage years started to explore the dynamic relationship between live instrumentation and electronic soundscapes. This shaped his musical direction, inspiring him to create emotive compositions that merge organic and synthesized sounds.

Geerling’s work as an audio engineer has further refined his ability to blend acoustic and electronic elements, helping him craft a unique sonic identity. Influenced by Icelandic composers like Jóhann Jóhannsson, Nils Frahm, and Ólafur Arnalds, his music often features rich, atmospheric layers that evoke a strong sense of narrative. With the piano as his primary instrument, Geerling continues to develop his style, positioned between contemporary classical music and modern cinematic soundscapes.
