He later built a decade-long career in his own studio before moving into the world of film composition, a passion he continues to pursue today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q1. Congratulations on winning the MUSE Design Awards! Can you introduce yourself and share about what inspired you to pursue design as a career?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>My career began at the age of eight, when I first started creating music. After several years of study, I released my first self-published album.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the next ten years, I focused on recording and producing in my own studio, before moving into composing music for cinema\u2014a field I have dedicated myself to in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q2. What does being recognized in the MUSE Design Awards mean to you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Receiving an award is always a powerful encouragement for a composer. In my case, gaining international recognition from a specialized jury feels like a dream\u2014and it makes me fall in love with music more than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q3. How has this achievement impacted your career, team, or agency, and what opportunities has it brought so far?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned before, music has been within me for as long as I can remember. My very first thoughts were of music\u2014music created by me. It\u2019s something I can\u2019t fully explain, a feeling that runs very deep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q4. What role does experimentation play in your creative process? Can you share an example?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a curious thing, you know? Many of my compositions are born while I\u2019m walking my dog in the park. It may sound a little unusual, but some of my best melodies have come to me this way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q5. What&#8217;s the most unusual source of inspiration you&#8217;ve ever drawn from for a project?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I\u2019m working on a project, I can\u2019t listen to other music\u2014I focus exclusively on what\u2019s in my mind. It\u2019s also very important for me to be at peace with myself, to find inner calm, so the melodies can truly take flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winning Entry <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/litmusicawards.com\/winner-info.php?id=2269\" class=\"external\">Buena Suerte (Good Luck)<\/a><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Explore the journey of <a href=\"https:\/\/muse.international\/inside-the-music-of-lazypianist-an-interview-with-zixiao-ye\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Zixiao Ye<\/a>, the Gold Winner at the 2025 LIT Music Awards.
