The first time that Marlene saw the job title ‘Film Composer’ was in the romantic comedy “The Holiday”, and a world opened up for her. Marlene has had a great passion for music since she was very young, she started playing keyboard as a teenager, took lessons in classical music and switched it up for pop music. Nowadays she is writing and producing her own songs.
While studying Media and Entertainment Management, she followed a minor in Music Publishing, learned to play guitar and drums and took classes in music history. Her familiarity with the world of sonic branding and music search came with her internship at the music agency MassiveMusic. She wrote her thesis on the touchpoint of the music-dna of travel agencies. And she assists with the search for new talents as well.
She is now in marketing for de Schuur, a theatre in Haarlem where she is surrounded with music and artists. Her taste in music varies from electro to gospel and had shared her love for music on her music blog My Curly Music.
At Clear Music she wants to learn more about music search and sonic branding and is happy to share her experience in this team as an intern.
