“Working with Ram is an absolute pleasure, he has what seems to be an infinite amount of creativity, he’s incredibly hard working and has a very knowledgeable approach to the workflow of getting your score delivered to its next destination in the post workflow. He’s also a fun guy to be around which helps when you’re working in close quarters for extended periods of time.”
Peter Harris, Director

“To say that it was a privilege to work with Ram is an understatement. I was touched with the amount of energy and enthusiasm that he carried throughout the scoring process. He poured his heart and soul into my short film and it shows on screen. Ram has a firm understanding of how to tell story and the role that music plays in connecting the audience with the themes and characters. He also has a warm and fun personality, which made it such a pleasure to collaborate with him everyday. I’d work with him again in a heart beat!”

“After hearing samples of his other film work, we had no hesitation in commissioning Ram Khatabakhsh to compose the score for our RIBA architecture project. The finished music surpassed our expectations. It is original, contemporary and adds significantly to the images. Ram has a talent for judging the mood of a piece and his music perfectly compliments our footage. We will definitely be working together again.”
