Aiden Appleton
My name is Aiden, I am a music composer. I write quite a wide range of genres. I started my musical journey as a classical guitarist and performer, before my love of creative media brought me into the world of fantasy orchestral music creation. I have been a musician and played video games my whole life, combining the two to create the music I want to create and the stories I wish to tell.
I have released six albums, Most are based on ancient mythologies and concepts, I love exploring old mythologies and musical interpretations of these. I also try and incorporate unique instrumentation in my work, featuring multiple rare and ancient instruments I have built myself. (Empyrean, Astaria, Revelations, The Nine Realms) Outside of my modern orchestral work, I have also composed neo-classical piano works in collaboration with my friend Daniel A. Ward. (The bridge Between Worlds) and I have also written a indie/folk album with my good friend Marcus Warner.

Just a little life update, Firstly thank you for everyone who has taken the time to listen to my newest album release Motionless in Time. I appreciate all the love and support from everyone. I'm working on some really cool stuff I cant wait to share with you, Its been a hectic week for me as we got this little guy over the weekend so everything is everywhere and I'm protecting my instruments from this whirling menace of doom, but looking forward to getting back into making more content soon. If you have any suggestions for videos id love to hear them too!
I hope everyone had an amazing summer, I explored southern Italy this year and had the most incredible trip. Exploring the ancient sites of Pompei and Herculaneum. Staying on the beautiful Mount Faito. I also had a great time heading to Ireland earlier this year with some friends to get some tin whistles that has made me very happy and have absolutely driven my girlfriend insane.
Wishing you all the very best for the remainder of the year!

The first single from The Nine Realms is coming this Friday, May 26th. We can't wait to share it with you and as always, want to thank everyone for all the support and love so far for the album.
The artwork for this album and singles is made entirely out of solid wood. A video of how I did this will be coming out soon, but in the meantime, here's the first look at the artwork for Vanaheim.
