"My journey in ambient music inspired me to build the creative tool I always wished existed"

Kirk Smith

Kirk Smith

Prolific producer & composer known for his cinematic ambient music (We Dream of Eden). Millions of streams, 500k+ monthly listeners, and 100s of song placements on film & TV.

For as long as I can remember, I've been captivated by the power of sound to tell stories and evoke emotion. My passion for ambient music led me to experiment endlessly in the studio, searching for ways to create lush soundscapes and cinematic atmospheres that resonate with listeners. Over the years, my artist project 'We Dream of Eden' has grown to reach over 500,000 monthly listeners and millions of streams, with my music featured in countless playlists and hundreds of film and TV placements.

But behind every track was a process—one I refined through trial, error, and a relentless drive to push creative boundaries. I realized that many aspiring artists and producers struggled with the same challenges I faced: finding their unique sound, finishing tracks, and getting their music heard. That's why I set out to build this app—a place where I could share every technique, workflow, and insight I've learned, all in one interactive experience.

This app is designed to guide you through the entire journey of ambient music production, from the first spark of inspiration to releasing your music to the world. You'll discover the exact tools and strategies I use, see how I approach sound design and arrangement, and learn how to promote your work effectively. My hope is that this app empowers you to create music that feels authentic, cinematic, and uniquely yours.

Whether you're just starting out or looking to elevate your craft, I'm excited to help you unlock your creative potential and share your sound with the world.
