Starting out as a rock/pop musician as a young adult, he released ten albums of original music and performed 300+ shows on three continents. After a string of composing gigs for short films and commercials (including The Marriott, Pfizer, and International Vaccine Institute), Nikolas pursued his master's in Music Composition from Oklahoma City University under the guidance of renown composer Dr. Edward Knight. Since graduating with honors, he has since composed and produced music for a variety of films, commercials, performers, and other various art and media projects. His ability to combine elements of sound design, orchestral performers, synthesizers, programming, and vocals has culminated in a diverse portfolio ranging from catchy hook orchestra melodies, to indie rock ferociousness, to playful pop, to textural soundscapes and more.

"Nikolas was the perfect composer to hire on my feature length documentary. Despite my lack of musical knowledge, Nikolas was able to interpret and capture the feel and mood that I was going for with the score. It was a great collaborative process and I’ve worked with him several more times since then.”

-Daniel Smukalla, director
