I’m a multidisciplinary creative, composer, audio engineer, and writer exploring the intersection of sound, culture, and storytelling. My work spans music composition, film scoring, sound design, mixing, mastering, and critical essays examining music’s cultural and historical significance.

Connective Tissue (2025) — Nadia Pricia Rey
A deeply personal sonic exploration of family, identity, and intergenerational memory, Connective Tissue transforms the recorded voices of my late mother, siblings, and myself into an evolving soundscape. Using generative Max/MSP programming, vocal sampling, looping, delay, and feedback, the composition draws parallels between biological inheritance and the ways love, loss, and memory resonate across generations. An intimate tribute to my mother, the piece explores how our connections endure through sound, shared identity, and the echoes we carry within us.
Cadence and Rhythm : The Linguistics of Rap
Rap is more than rhythm and rhyme; it's a sophisticated language of identity, culture, and expression. *Cadence and Rhythm: The Linguistics of Rap* examines the relationship between hip-hop and linguistics, exploring how phonology, prosody, cadence, and lyrical complexity shape musical storytelling. Through the artistry of Kendrick Lamar, The Notorious B.I.G., Missy Elliott, DMX, Jay-Z, and others, this research highlights rap as both a powerful form of communication and a culturally significant linguistic art form.
