Mr. Grosheider
is originally from New Albany, IN, a small city near Louisville, KY. He grew up in a
school system that is nationally recognized for their music and theatrical productions. He
began playing trumpet at the age of 9 and eventually became a first chair musician in the
renowned Floyd County Youth Symphony, playing concerts, tours, and contests throughout the
United States and other countries. During this time, Alan also became involved in classes
and performances of stage plays and musicals, both as an actor and as a musician in pit
orchestras. |
As a contrast to his artistic side, Mr. Grosheider also
became very interested in computers and engineering at a young age. In junior high
school, he was already proficient at complex computer programming, which would eventually
prove to complement his musical skills. He went on to complete a degree in engineering
from one of the nation's premier engineering schools, Purdue University.
After college, Alan held various engineering jobs before
eventually starting several businesses of his own and building one of the
nation's most
recognized and successful environmental consulting firms.
Mr. Grosheider always retained a strong love for and
knowledge of music and theatrical arts, which led to one of his favorite pastimes: movies (especially horror movies). Over the years, Alan spent a great deal of time
refining his musical tastes to include everything from classical to industrial music and
studying the effects of music on the emotional aspects of movies.
Eventually, Mr. Grosheider developed a home studio of
synthesizers and computer sequencers and began composing his own music.
After he volunteered as a zombie extra on the set of Dead Moon Rising
(an Anubis Digital Studios
project), he happened to meet Janice and Mark Poole (Anubis Digital Studios producers),
and the music for Dead Moon Rising was born, along with Mr. Grosheider's soundtrack
career.
Mr. Grosheider currently is working with Anubis Digital
to promote Dead Moon Rising, recently finished the soundtrack for a movie called The Box, is
developing the soundtrack for a new Anubis Digital movie called Requiem
for the Fallen, and is working on several other movie soundtrack
projects.
