A critically acclaimed composer and musician, Jeremy Soule heads Artistry Entertainment, a distinguished leader in music production for the interactive entertainment industry. According to 2002 figures furnished by www.NPD.com, Artistry Entertainment is the most distributed provider of original "film-quality" music for the games industry. This accomplishment includes over ten major releases and as many as six top-sellers composed for five of the world's largest publishers.
Jeremy's award-winning, orchestral soundtracks have elevated the standard of music in the interactive entertainment industry to a level previously limited to the motion picture genre. His dynamic compositions reveal a natural ability to create powerful and engaging music using both fine instruments as well as an unsurpassed, proprietary library of synthesizers that successfully emulates the sound and feel of a 100-piece orchestra. Soule's creativity, technological expertise and cutting-edge approach to composition has placed him at the top of the composer A-list in the entertainment software industry, and his work has been applauded time and time again by some of the world's most prominent music and entertainment industry professionals.
Most recently, Jeremy's score for The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind was nominated for "Game Soundtrack of the Year" in Game Industry News (www.gameindustry.com). Soule also created the original score for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for EA, which won the IGN 2002 award for Best Adventure Game." In February, four titles featuring soundtracks created by Soule were announced as finalists in the 2002 Interactive Achievement Awards, sponsored by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences. These titles garnered a total of eight nominations in several categories, including "PC Game of the Year," "PC RPG of the Year," "Family PC Game of the Year," "Outstanding Achievement in Game Design," "Innovation in PC Gaming" and "Outstanding Achievement in Original Musical Composition."

His music in the Guild Wars and Elder Scrolls series got my into the whole neo-classical fantasy-music genre. I'm a fan.

I gotta echo Neben: 9 times outta 10 when a song make me look to see who wrote it or tempts me to rate it, it's a Jeremy Soule piece. Small wonder, though, with all the stuff he's written. So prolific!! But it's also his unflagging creativity. He deserves all the rewards and recognition he's earned.

One of my favorite modern composers, though some might say he's too prolific (sort of the John Williams of vg music) I enjoy almost everything he's done.

Jeremy Soule is to me a unique composer. He uses any whole of instruments as a symphonic being of music. For me, he writes the most complete music of many great composers in the field today. Too bad there are only 5 stars.

A prolific and talented composer, although he's a bit inconsistent. Some of his best is nearly unsurpassed, while other songs are as inspiring as a crumpled newspaper.
