About
Born in India, raised in Virginia, and now based in Los Angeles, Ngawang Samphel is a Tibetan multifaceted film and tv composer, producer, and sound designer. He is self-taught in production, classical piano, composition, theory and orchestration. He credits watching the 1940 version of Fantasia during his childhood as the original spark of inspiration to find out what makes music so good. Ngawang’s father saw his son fascinated by a piano at a family friend’s house so he gifted his son a teaching keyboard with light-up keys—this sealed Ngawang’s fate in music.
In his previous professional life, Ngawang was an accountant for five years while balancing his passion to create music. He played synth for a band called Lightwaves where they performed at notable D.C. venues such as U Street Music Hall and The Howard Theater. He simultaneously had a music project with his brother Tenzin called Indiginis where they co-produced tracks and official remixes, as well as performed DJ sets at venues such as U Street Music Hall in D.C. and Webster Hall in New York. He is forever grateful to his partner for pushing him into the unknown—to take a chance and pursue a creative career on the opposite side of the country.
