Matteo Bartolo
Music composer and music producer for TV shows, films and media. Music composer of the feature film “43 Degrees North” (available on Amazon Prime) and the short films “Bahiri” and “Empathy”.
When I hired Matteo, I thought I was bringing someone on to create a standard underscore – functional, supportive, and fine. But what he delivered went far beyond that. His music gave my film its soul. It wasn’t until I heard his compositions with my footage that I realized something essential had been missing all along. He didn’t just score the film; he revealed its emotional core in a way that moved me. His work transformed the project and exceeded every expectation I had. I cannot imagine the film without his music now. They’re inseparable.

Matteo Bartolo is a great composer and professional artist to work with. He listened my needs and delivered incredible soundtracks on time for my short film. I recommend him.
