Hi everyone, I'm Saman, mostly work under the name "Blue Mind"
I'm a composer, sound designer, and audio engineer based in Istanbul. I create cinematic music and immersive sound for film, TV, and digital media, with a focus on storytelling through sound. My work blends emotional depth with detailed sound textures, and I love collaborating on meaningful projects whether it's a short film, documentary, or something experimental. Excited to connect with fellow creatives and explore new opportunities here on Stage 32!

Welcome Saman! Who are some of your favorite composers working in film right now? Today, I'm remembering the passing of James Horner by listening to his work and found some really nice covers of some of his famous themes.

Saman Karbalaeiali I really liked listening to your music (You Will Rise). It stirs my heart/soul and brings out both melancholy and uplifting energies at the same time. Perfect for a soundtrack
