BIO


Trained as a classical pianist and lyrical singer, Marina adapts the former vocal techniques with the new performance aesthetic. Her voice has been described as “clear with a velvety quality, but with an ability to diffuse her color at will”.


Marina is a music composer, producer, singer, and songwriter, and her music thrives from a very personal sampling and sound design style.


Her final thesis consisted of the creation and analysis of a genetic algorithm for harmonic and melodic development, which led her to receive the Fulbright Award. 


She then moved to Los Angeles and graduated from the USC Screen Scoring program, where began her career as a media composer and creator.


She received the 2020 Fulbright Award, the 2021 Barcelona Sound Creation Scholarship, and the 2022 ASCAP Harold Arlen Film & TV Award. Her concert music works have premiered internationally at the Music Palace of Catalonia and L'Auditori of Barcelona, and she has conducted and recorded music scores at stages such as the Warner Brothers’ Eastwood Stage in Los Angeles. 


She has worked in the music department of 20th Century Studios' and Scott Free's Boston Strangler, CW and Netflix's Dynasty, Amazon Prime's KSI: In Real Life, and has collaborated as a composer with Powderkeg Media, founded by Paul Feig, and Emmy-winning collective Bleeding Fingers Music, founded in 2013 by Hans Zimmer.


She started composing music at age 3, with her early pieces premiering in the local scene of her region in Spain. She also began writing fiction at age 4, with a sober-minded storytelling style, while developing a very singular vision of what music could bring to a story very early on in her life.


Marina studied formal music composition at Barcelona’s Esmuc and later moved to Helsinki’s Sibelius Academy, where got involved in music research about artificial intelligence and algorithmic composition. 


Her academic life was based on a strong combined specialization of many disciplines at the same time. She holds a Law degree from the University of Pompeu Fabra, which she took at the same time as her Music Composition degree in Barcelona and the European University Leadership School (ELU) in Madrid.
