music composition

Nikinali offers original music composition and sound design for dance, theatre, film and television. We colaborate with selected solo artists and bands.

Our primary aim at Nikinali is to foster new artists and create original compositions for the mainstream music industry. We hold song writing workshops that create and develop songwriting teams, assist up and coming artists and contribute to the commercial music industry.

We use Apple Macintosh computer hardware, Logic Pro 8 software and state of the art music equipment. A simply designed studio with a relaxed atmosphere allows songwriters and live session musicians to collaborate freely, experiment musically and bring out the best in their original composition. Situated on The Wharf Sydney harbor, Australia's music gateway to the world, Nikinali welcomes local and international interest and potential music opportunities. Nikinali provides truly original and eclectic music composition.
