Eden Mulholland (Ngati Uepohatu, Aotearoa) is one of Australasia’s most respected and prolific composers and producers for theatre, film, and contemporary dance.
Currently based in Queensland, Eden’s background as a gifted contemporary dancer, together with his ongoing career as a recording artist, means his work not only spans multiple disciplines but also meets the challenges involved in transcending or transgressing conventional genre boundaries.
Recent works include composing for TVNZ drama series The Pact, dance theatre work Archives of Humanity – commissioned by the Perth Festival, Meremere which was presented at the Sydney Opera House and on tour in Australia. Eden is the composer for this year’s WOW show at the TSB Arena in Wellington.
Eden has received numerous arts festival and commercial sound design awards and is a founding member of the acclaimed Movement of the Human, a multi-disciplined, project-based collective known for their striking and thought provoking work.
One of the most brilliantly eclectic indie pop albums of the year
A superb racket with experimental crescendos, cyclic drones backed by aching falsettos and all manner of pedal mayhem
This pace and timing is perhaps the work’s most impressive feature and can be attributed to its astonishing sound-score. Composer Eden Mulholland has created an incredible, almost operatic aural experience
A haunting soundscape of memories; emotions of love, loss and hope; ideas of loneliness, struggle and triumph. Mulholland is a gentle performer, gracious in his shaping of the piece
