Name: Luke Andrew Stephenson

D.O.B: 12/05/1989

A lifelong music lover, as most people are, I am currently studying Game Design (Bsc) at Bolton University, and composing music in my spare time.

I was born on the channel island of Guernsey on May 12th, 1989.  I lived on the island until the age of seven, during which time I began to study the cello with the aid of an instructor and the piano in my spare time. I was forced to leave my cello behind when I moved to England though, so for a few years music took a back seat as I settled in.

Around the age of 13 I began to take a real interest in video games, and it was the music of the Final Fantasy series that inspired me to start writing again. I worked with basic MIDI software for the first two years before upgrading to more professional equipment, and I have been pursing music in my spare time ever since. This period was the birth of my two passions.

At 17 I was given my first external project with Frostwork Studios, and since then I have worked closely as an arranger and composer for Maverick Youth Arts, a young persons drama group based in Poole, Dorset. I am currently working on a musical for them as well as a film project, and at the same time I am composing for Coder Systems and their game: Space Unlimited.
