Paul Haslinger

Paul Haslinger is an Austrian-born composer living and working in Los Angeles. He has secured a distinctive reputation for composing film scores, which incorporate both robust classical elements and compelling electronica.

After working with Tangerine dream for several years, Haslinger released three solo albums and scored two landmark animated science-fiction films, Planetary Traveler and Infinity’s Child.

He worked as a programmer for Graeme Revell, supplying memorable textures and atmospheric style to Blow, the Negotiator, The Siege, Pitch Black, and Tomb Raider, before earning his first solo credit as the composer of Cheaters, directed by John Stockwell. In 2003, Haslinger scored Len Wiseman’s Underworld, his first film to open #1 at the US box office.

In recent years, Haslinger has made a conscious effort to expand and diversify his work. His scores for Ubisoft’s Xbox releases Far Cry: Instincts and Rainbow Six – Vegas were enthusiastically received by the gaming community. In 2006 he was nominated for an Emmy for his music for the Showtime series SleeperCell.

Haslinger’s film work also includes: Crank (dirs Brian Talyor and Mark Neveldine), Vacancy (dir Nimrod Antal), Shoot Em Up (dir Michael Davis), Prom Night (dir Nelson McCormick), Death Race (dir Paul W.S. Anderson), and the third installment to the Underworld trilogy, Underworld: Rise of the Lycans (dir Patrick Tatopoulos). His recent releases include Sony Screen Gems’, Takers and the independent film After.L

Paul Haslinger and FabFilter

"FabFilter plug-ins were originally recommended by Joe Barresi (mix engineer, Tool, Queens of the Stone Age). Now that the plug-ins are 64-bit VST compatible, I've been able to introduce them into my workflow."

"So far, my favorites are Twin 2 and Volcano 2...there is a quality about a good plug-in or virtual instrument that's similar to playing on a great traditional instrument. It's inspiring to play and make music with!"
