Dana Kaproff  The son of one of LA’s most prominent studio musicians, Dana Kaproff was literally raised in the Los Angeles music scene. After having done his undergraduate and post graduate work at both UCLA and Berkeley, he went on to study classical composition with many notable contemporary composers including George Tremblay, Andrew Imbrie, and Paul Chihara.

Having always had a lifelong affection for cinema, Kaproff chose to begin his film scoring career by apprenticing with such Hollywood giants as Elmer Bernstein, Jerry Goldsmith, and John Barry. He has subsequently gone on to score close to a hundred theatrical, cable, and television movies, as well as countless series, mini-series, and documentaries. His credits include multiple assignments for Paramount, Universal, FOX, Columbia/ Tristar, Time Warner, CBS, NBC, ABC, HBO, Showtime, PBS, National Geographic, USA Networks, Lifetime, and Entertainment Tonight.

In addition to his film and commercial work, Kaproff has recently turned his attentions to the recording industry, and is quickly becoming one of the hottest new songwriters to burst upon today’s music scene. Although classically trained, he has always remained true to his roots in the rock/ pop/ R&B world. Recently, he supplied half of the new tunes included for the latest Shirley Bassey album “Thank You For The Years”. He is also producing tracks for upcoming albums by Dianne Arkenstone, Bianca Rossini, Bri Cuoco, and Jon Hall.

After having been involved with marrying cutting edge music technology and visuals for so many years, it was destined to be part of Kaproff’s natural artistic evolution to look to the Internet for new possibilities in this regard. With the creation of his own Internet company, audioRiot.com, he has officially done just that. Hoping to bring his special creative sensibilities, time tested professionalism, and hi-tech facilities into play in the online arena, Kaproff is seeking to position his company as a major outsource supplier of original music, and sound design, to high-end website designers worldwide.

Mr. Kaproff currently resides in Southern California. Aside from his ongoing work as composer, songwriter, and producer, he continues his involvement with the motion picture community by serving on the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts and Science’s Music Branch Executive Committee. He also runs his own publishing company, Mi Myoozik Publishing, and gives occasional lectures about the music business at various corporate functions, schools, and universities.
