Gil Velazquez's Page

His Musical Direction Spans Influences from all Genres of Music.

An instrumental guitarist/composer with one-stop licensing for multimedia, stage, film and TV. With each new piece he writes, Gil feels a story is essential to the writing process. "Since lyrics are not the main voice, it is imperative that I visualize an event, emotion, a point in someone's life, something that can be translated into music with the guitar as the primary voice". I feel that too often, the synthesizer, along with computer generated samples have dominated the media scoring environment for quite some time and we have lost the organic, yet unpredictable dynamics of the electric guitar as a voice to support the message on film, screen or stage.
