Zaplin Music is the Amsterdam based production studio of composer/sound-designer Sebastian Schatz.
We create music and sounds for a wide range of purposes like film, tv/radio-imaging and art performances.

Working together with leading music-production companies, our productions can be heard on major television and radio stations around the globe.
