About me

Giancarlo Bottalico is an Italian music composer and sound designer who blends electroacoustic expertise with advanced orchestration techniques.

​

His work in film and video games scoring has taken him from indie titles to international collaborations, with projects and festival selections across Italy, Spain, California and Australia. He has collaborated with institutions such as ESCAC in Barcelona, where he worked on several audiovisual projects, Arca del Blues in Lecce, and AFM in Bologna, where he currently teaches Music Production.

​

He has worked as an audio engineer both for live events, with service companies or as FOH, and as an audio post-production technician on audiovisual projects. He also frequently arranges for local concert series, such as Corti, Chiese e Cortili and has ongoing experience with recording and conducting symphonic orchestras, both his own compositions and works by other composers.

​

He holds a degree in Electroacoustic Composition, completed a post-graduate Master in Film Scoring, has studied video game music composition at Thinkspace Education, and is a Wwise certified user. He is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Film Scoring in Bologna.

Giancarlo Bottalico's compositions transport listeners into a liquid sonic journey, a spiraling motion where the music never truly begins or ends, but simply is.
