Ronan Coleman
Location Sound & Music Composer
Ronan Coleman has worked as a composer in Ireland for almost a decade. His music is featured internationally in advertising, film and television. Recent commissions include the theme tune to Television Jamaica's largest ever production 'Rising Stars', along with scoring RTÉ's six part series on European enlargement entitled 'Europe's New Frontier' and a thirteen part series journeying down the Mississippi for TG4 Ireland.
In summer 2004, he scored the award winning film 'Hoodwink' for the US launch of Volvo's all new V50. His long standing relationship with documentary makers, Ruán and Manchán Magan of Wonderland, has seen Coleman develop the unique musical identity of the Global Nomad series of TV documentaries that have received critical and commercial acclaim in Ireland and which are currently being distributed worldwide through Beyond Distribution. The documentary film of 'Riverdance in China' produced in March 2004, also features a number of Coleman's compositions.
An Associate Member of IMRO (Irish Music Rights Organisation), he is bi-located between Dublin and New York and is currently at work on an album that fuses electronica with vocal and instrumental recordings of indigenous, minority communities from his recordings made throughout Africa, China and the Middle East.
