Emre Çakar
Hi, I'm Emre, an award-winning composer and producer based in Istanbul, specialized in media music production and album production. I've been making music since I was eight. It has taken me through orchestras, rock competitions, film scores, and finally — my own releases. Music is at the center — but I also find my creativity in making videos.
Graduated from Advertising department of Istanbul Bilgi University (2005) and Sound Engineering & Design graduate program at Istanbul Technical University MIAM (2024). Co-founded 2 music production companies. Currently producing on my own.
