About the Author

Janne Storm

I am a sound artist, music producer, and a musician. Previously I've composed film music, performed as a live looping solo artist, played with heavy metal bands, and produced albums, among others.

I've always been fascinated with new innovations in music production. Birth of a Bird started as a solo album, but when I tried virtual reality for the first time, I fell in love with the possibilities it could provide. Music for my album began to reshape into what is now Birth of a Bird. 

Improvisation has always been a big part of my music, and with interactive compositions, the audience can also partake in the improvisation.
