Benjamin Efrati has been creating original soundtracks for cinema since 2012. You might have landed on this page because you didn’t select a particular project from the menu.
The latest production to date is the soundtrack for Amok, Balazs Turai‘s 2022 animated short produced by Terry Gilliam. Winner of the Cristal for best short film and the France Télévisions Special Prize at the Festival International d’Animation d’Annecy (France), the film also won the Heart of Sarajevo Award for Best Short at the Sarajevo Film Festival (Bosnia and Herzegovina) and the Best Original Music Award at TOFUZI International Animated Film Festival in Tbilisi (Georgia) in 2022. It was also nominated for the Annie Awards 2023.
The playlist below highlights music composed for animation shorts and series. These pieces were made using synthesizers (analog and digital), electronic machines (samplers, sequencers, drum machines, handcrafted electronic sound generators, electric organs) and string instruments (bass guitars, elektro-baglama, saz, bouzuki, kankara sanshin, cümbüs).
