Lusive

When you hire Lusive, you’re not just getting music—you’re getting a fully customized cinematic experience built around your story. Every project begins with a creative consultation to understand your vision, mood, pacing, and emotional goals. From there, original music is composed specifically for your film, trailer, or visual project—never reused or templated.

You can expect clear communication, professional audio quality, on-time delivery, and revisions that ensure the final score fits your project perfectly. Whether you need a powerful main theme, emotional underscore, tension-building cues, or atmospheric textures, each piece is designed to elevate the visuals and leave a lasting impact on your audience.

The result: music that doesn’t just support the story—it becomes part of it.

I am a musician who believes that creating music is my true purpose in life. With classical training as my foundation, I explore various genres that deeply touch my soul. I aim to provide a cathartic experience to those who traverse through my musical catalogue.

I draw inspiration from a multitude of musical influences, beginning with my Uncle, Gerald Lloyd, who ignited my passion for music and continues to inspire me to this day. I also draw inspiration from my Grandfather, Joe Willie Smith, who has had a profound impact on my musical journey. My Grandfather is an exceptionally talented individual who crafts his own instruments, garnering high praise from the public. I feel a great sense of honor in carrying on the rich musical legacy that permeates my family.

My musical journey started with piano and choir in 3rd grade, planting a seed that would flower into a wonderful exploration of music. During high school, my musical journey continued as I delved into concert band, marching band, and piano simultaneously. Although I had the opportunity to pursue my passion for music at the School of Music of NAU (Northern Arizona University), I made a different choice and studied Technical Theatre, which wasn't as close to my heart. However, my love for music eventually guided me back to my true calling. I dabbled in various online music production courses here and there, however, one of my best friends Isaiah Reed reignited my passion for music by showing me his musical catalogue in Garageband. From there, I decided to commit to music production and soon found out that I not only needed something more powerful, but also more education on how DAWs worked. That's when I decided to pursue a certificate in Audio Arts from Full Sail University. I can confidently say that attending Full Sail helped me achieve my goals to understand the ins and outs of DAWs all while providing a plethora of resources for me to utilize throughout my life!

On top of music production, I also provide audio support for live events. I've had the pleasure of working with a local concert band called Desert Overture Wind Symphony a few times, as well as a their sister organization Desert City Jazz. These collaborations have refined my music production and composition skills to further aide in the story-telling process.
