Hi, I'm Daan. I write music for
video games and animation.
A little about me
I'm Daan (/daːn/) Demmers, a multifaceted, multi-instrumental musician from the Netherlands.
I have been writing music professionally since 2018, drawing inspiration from a wide breadth of styles for a variety of purposes.
I employ many different techniques to suit the needs of my work, and I am proficient in every phase of the music production pipeline: everything from composition to mastering.
In 2020, I released my debut album Journey Through My Mind Vol. 1, followed by 2022's with Journey Through My Mind Vol. 2. Both albums earned praise from industry figures in the realms of VGM and game soundtracks.
I make frequent musical contributions to professional game development projects - perhaps most notable being Breeze In the Clouds by Stormy Nights and Sunhara: Ecorpy Islands by Clover Atelia - as well as several fan projects close to my heart.
I love collaborating with developers and other musicians to create something truly special: music that leaves a lasting impression on players and listeners alike. I am always looking for new projects, and I am excited to help developers and studios of all sizes. If there is music I can write for you or your development team, please reach out!

"Daan has an unrelenting can-do attitude, and is an absolute pleasure to work with! Through collaborating with him on tracks for Breeze in the Clouds, I got to see Daan's skills as a team player, wide stylistic diversity, and passion for classic video game music firsthand.
He's the real deal!"

"Daan is an excellent composer and a super approachable person who's always ready to get working on new things. I've been following his progress for a while and i'm always looking forward to his next funky tunes. I'm glad to have him on my team and hopefully will be able to help him reach even more people with the things we're working on!"

Breeze In the Clouds
"The efficiency in his approach to writing, mixing, and composing allows him to deliver his ideas in a way that make it easy for the team to feel, evaluate, and ultimately jam out to his unique sound. And when the music calls for a new direction, Daan never fails to adapt to the situation. Getting to hear him work on this music from scratch is a learning experience for myself and a great pleasure to listen to as a lover of music!"
