Originally a violinist, Elliot Callighan began his journey in music and audio on the violin using the Suzuki method at the age of four. While he loved his experience on this instrument, it wasn’t enough. He began playing piano at eight, guitar at 12 and at 20, Daft Punk convinced him to give the computer a shot, too. (thankfully!)

To pursue music and audio, Elliot enlisted in the Army National Guard. This path led to degrees in Music Composition and Sound Design, and a commission as a Military Officer.

His accomplishments include:

• Composing the Official Soundtrack for Trackmania by Ubisoft Nadeo.
• Scoring over 80 films, documentaries, animations and video games.
• Work heard in campaigns for United Airlines, Spiderman: Far From Home, The Chicago Advertising Federation, GMC, The Godrej Group, Chevrolet Motors, and The Goodman Theatre and Joffrey Ballet.
• Self-Releasing two solo electronic albums as "Ramova."
• Appointed as a Platoon Leader at the 1744th Transportation Company leading 60+ soldiers.
• Researching and creating a new business model for the game audio industry.
• Founding Unlock Audio.

Elliot always focuses on creating distinct personality and aesthetic in all audio while maintaining that memorable “hummable” factor in his music. He brings this sensibility to his work in games, film, trailer and commercial projects. He has served as Soundpost Co-Chair for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Overture Council and teaches as Adjunct Faculty in the Film and Game programs at DePaul University.
