PETER HOBBS
Peter Hobbs (BMus) is a musician and composer who earns a living scoring soundtracks for films, television, commercials, art installations, and contemporary dance. He also fronts the band Lost Demos. Peter is internationally recognised for his work as a film composer and sound designer, and he currently operates out of his Auckland-based studio, Harmonic Studio. He describes himself as a "diehard advocate for the spaces between the notes". He regularly works with the leading Māori dance company Atamira Dance Company, from which the music on his 2023 Rattle release TOMO is derived. The album is a continuation of ideas and approaches evident in his Rattle debut, LUMINESCENCE, which was also released in 2023.
