COMPOSING
SLM produces and creates music for current media. Meeting the exact needs of our clients as exactly as possible in terms of style of music and atmosphere is our mission. No matter if it is a trailer, a corporate song or a soundscape. The basic part of our work is the client's idea.
PUBLISHING
SLM offers another source of music with it's own Edition Carabao that belongs to Intro Verlag Gmbh of Meisel Music in Berlin. With this catalogue more music can be licensed and published for different purposes, such as advertising, film, TV/ radio and internet.
CORONA
SLM certainly contributes to the fight against Corona. Any kind of activity that requires physical contact like studio recordings, video shootings etc. already rests
since 9th of March. As an individual enterprise it's easy for SLM to take this turn. Mail, requests and CD-orders are still available. Please note that orders may take more time these days. So be
patient.
Music will help us all to overcome these times.
Please take it serious and stay home!

PABLO ALCÀZAR -
THE SPANISH
GUITAR
Thinking of the guitar’s origin Spain comes to one’s mind in the first place, and especially Andalucia, intentionally or unintentionally.
