Even though playing existing music was how he started out, it soon became clear he wanted to create his own music. Music that is boundless and allowed him to express himself freely. Not having to adhere to rules and structure fascinated him most. While music can be strongly based in theory, Jo always trusted his instincts and strong sense for a certain sound aesthetic to craft something unique and timeless.
Music is his sacred space and his companion in difficult times. When life gets tough, music is always there for him and gives him a tool to channel his emotions and create pieces that in essence are snapshots of his momentary emotional states.
Jo has worked with some of the best musicians in the industry that helped him amplify his vision and paint musical pictures in the brightest colors imaginable.
He worked with leading Motion Picture Advertising companies in Los Angeles, scored short films, documentaries, feature films, and provided the signature theme music for New Zealandโs greatest show event in Wellington "World Of Wearable Art". One of his dreams came true when he was commissioned to write original music for various projects at the helm of Lord Of The Rings-creators, Richard Taylor and Peter Jackson.
Jo's compositions have been featured in some of the biggest motion picture advertising campaigns in the world such as The House With A Clock In Its Walls, Colette, Wonder Woman, Jupiter Ascending, 300 - Rise Of An Empire, Beauty And The Beast, How To Train Your Dragon, The Hunger Games, Assassin's Creed, Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, The Wolfman, Lincoln, X-Men First Class and many more.
What Jo loves most about his vocation is the impact his music has on the lives of those who listen to it. Receiving feedback from filmmakers and fans of his music adds fuel to his fire and motivates him to excel at his craft every day.

Oh wow, I had no idea, your comments are so beautiful and completely humbling. Being able to shift your emotions and brighten up your day (just a little) with my music is all the fuel I need to keep writing music every day <3
@angeramirez25
Yes please keep writting music. I just discovered your work two days ago and i cannot believe my ears!!!, your music itยดs one of the best i have ever heard (i was raised hearing classical music and in my adolescence i started to listen to epic music so i got a great ear), Thomas Bergensen and Hanz Zimmer were my numer one, but now you entered that top 3, i absolutely adore your work. My dream would be to listen live this music in my country someday. Much love from Colombia South America
@powerforth8400
Jo there are all of these "epic" music channels using your songs with MILLIONS of views. why not compile your music into playlists like they are doing and profit here on youtube as well..? Seems like easy money for your existing work.

Jo, Do you know what Synesthesia is? It is when you see colours when you hear music, I am diagnosed with is, words can not describe the way your music paints my mind with the most extravagant colours.
