HEY LUNE
Hey Lune is an artist, music producer, and composer for film, television and video games based in L.A. His music is a mix of atmospheric and introspective, embracing a hybrid sound of classical and electronic.
From Science to Music
Hey Lune (Larry Hong) is a queer Korean-American composer who grew up in the South, studied Neuroscience, and then switched career paths to learn film and video game scoring at the Berklee College of Music. He got his start in the industry working as a composer assistant to Wendy & Lisa (from Prince and The Revolution), and has since then assisted a few other composers working on television series such as the police procedural Shades of Blue (NBC) and the animated series DC Super Hero Girls (Warner Bros).
His training in Classical piano, Taiko (Japanese drumming), and electronic music influences his hybrid style. He has always enjoyed listening to symphonies and soundtracks, and a structural, theoretical approach infused with an emotional touch is what inspires him to write.
"Hey Lune" is a playful twist on his Korean name, "Haewoon" - a name that often gets tangled in mispronounciations. It's a cheerful nod to those little mix-ups.
Featured Work
“Larry’s ear for music is extraordinary. He has a natural feel for the narrative when he is composing. He is sensitive to subtleties in character development; therefore, he also realizes the function of a good score.”
