A native Minnesotan, Michael worked in Minneapolis as a commercial composer for five years, creating tracks for some of the biggest advertising agencies in North America before moving to Los Angeles in 1998. Since that time, his success in the scoring industry is impressive, 10 feature films, 2 television series, TV movies, more award-winning commercials and 4 video games. Known throughout the film world for his highly textured and meticulously produced music, Michael's deep knowledge of orchestral, ethnic and all forms of electronic and ambient genres makes him an ideal choice for realizing the most eclectic musical tastes; he possesses the rare ability to seamlessly blend symphonic music with the most vital techno, electronica, rock and hip-hop and is often called upon to write songs for feature films and collaborate with major artists like Kelly Clarkson (From Justin To Kelly). In addition to scoring for film and television, Michael also records, produces and remixes under the name Khursor. He achieved major status on MP3.com with over 100,000 collective downloads and continues his success on CNet.music. His remixes have charted in Europe, China, Japan, Australia and Canada and he expects to release his first full-length "crypt-hop" record at the end of 2004. Michael currently resides in Los Angeles with wife, Leslie, and his two best critics, cats Fergus and Foster.
