Meldio Shibana
Meldio Shibana (Maurice T. Schmidt) was born in 2002 in Halle (Saale). He started composing when he was 13 years old, starting out with video game music exclusively for the video games he designed himself.
Later, he moved to making the soundtrack of films and created or worked on “Beverly, Hex und Hexenmeister” (2020), “Spiel C” (2021), “Schmu – Sie schummeln gern” (2022) as well as “Colloquium de Democratia in Europa” (2022) and “Girls just wanna walk Home” (2023). He was Vanessa Donelly’s production assistant in 2025 and helped work on the musical “Für das Licht der Nacht” (2025) and landed his first feature film “Unterholz” in 2026.
He is an artist of many facettes and dedicated his time to the mastery of many different styles of music, also from around the world, with a specific passion for japanese music, rooted in his love for japanese culture and japanese video games such as Pokémon or Zelda that were very influential in his childhood.
His main focus is fully realized soundtracks that tell a complete story and working with orchestra, as well as infusing ethnic all-around-the-world elements to his soundtracks or working symphonically. He also has a little specialty for fast paced video game music and boss battle themes.
