Emanuel

Emanuel Keller (also known as EMAN) is a music producer, cellist, sound engineer whose work strives to push the boundaries of cross genre mixes by drawing inspiration from pop, soul and global music. A graduate of the Music Production and Sound Engineering program at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston (Summa Cum Laude), Emanuel’s teaching focuses on exploring music by listening to a variety of genres, practicing technical skills to expand the student’s tool kit and learning new musical pieces.

As a composer, he wrote the music for the short dance film SHIVTA (directed by dancer and actor Or Meir Schraiber) which was featured in film festivals around the world including the San Francisco Dance Film Festival. In addition, his work ‘A Gathering’, directed by award winning dancer Bobbi Jene Smith, was featured at FFDN Festival in Toronto.
