BE MUSIC in a World of Clicks!
“THIS JOURNEY DIDN’T START WITH A PLAN, IT STARTED WITH A FEELING.
A NEED TO CREATE MUSIC THAT SAYS WHAT WORDS NEVER COULD.
NOW, EVERY NOTE IS WRITTEN WITH PURPOSE, TO MOVE, TO CONNECT, AND TO LAST.”
Clifford T. Haines
Meet the composer
(and... Producer in training learning more everyday)
Clifford Haines is an independent composer and producer in training creating emotionally driven, cinematic music designed to move people and tell stories where words fall short. Working from his home studio, he blends modern classical elements with piano-driven compositions, layered instrumentation, and a deeply personal creative process where musical motifs just pop into his head while practicing and playing piano.
His music is rooted in feeling—crafted to carry weight, evoke reflection, and connect with audiences on a human level. Now in what he calls the “third half” of his life, Cliff is focused on bringing his full body of work from the past 45 years into the world, creating original music ready for media content, i.e., film, television, streaming services, musicals, etc.
He also creates music to help self healing, reflection, soul searching and also have a little fun with old school (60s-80s) pop/rock and let yourself go music.
Lastly, His secret passion is to rearrange orchestrated music into the Anthem Rock or Heavy Metal song genre and vice-versa to rearrange any Pop or Rock song into orchestral music.
