Samer Fanek is a Polish-Jordanian pianist, keyboardist, composer and
producer of contemporary instrumental music. Born on December 11, 1986 in
Amman, Jordan and currently residing in the United States, his passion for
music began early on and it has stayed with him ever since.
In his teenage years, Samer taught himself how to play his favorite songs by
ear on the piano. It wasn't long before he discovered music production
software which granted him the opportunity to experiment with a multitude
of instrument sounds and record music with them. Samer was then able to
create and arrange songs without requiring to learn sheet music.
Later on, he was able to fully recreate instrumental arrangements of his
favorite songs by ear and eventually went on to compose his own music.
After finishing high school, Samer went to pursue a computer science degree
in college and graduate school. Following college, he spent five years working
as a software developer during the day and making music at night and on
weekends.
He eventually left his software developer job in late 2015 to dedicate himself
entirely to realizing a long time music dream.
Samer has a dream to create powerful and dramatic instrumental music that
tells a story and has an enduring emotional impact. He also aspires to take his
music from his bedroom studio to the world stage and perform it with talented
musicians and orchestras throughout the globe.
Both self-taught and devoted to his craft, Samer's compositions blend the
piano and orchestral instruments with the more contemporary, including
synthesizers and occasional rock and ethnic instruments. He cites Yanni and
Nobuo Uematsu as his primary music influences, although his instrumental
compositions sometimes overlap with the progressive rock and progressive
metal genres, inspired by the likes of Muse and Dream Theater.
On July 22, 2016 Samer released his debut album, "Wishful Thinking",
featuring thirteen of his original instrumental music compositions which he
composed, performed and produced in his bedroom studio. The album
debuted at #12 on the US New Age Billboard charts and #6 on the iTunes
New Age Music charts. It has also climbed to #1 on the Amazon.com Best
Sellers in New Age, Hot New Releases in New Age and Movers and Shakers
charts.
The album was nominated for the 2016 Hollywood in Music and Media Awards
(HMMA) in the Contemporary Classical/Instrumental category.
Due to not being able to afford hiring a real orchestra for the album, Samer
used his keyboard and virtual instrument libraries to individually compose and
perform all the instrument parts (such as violins, guitars, horns, flutes, and
percussion) on Wishful Thinking. He used instruments from over 50 different
virtual instrument libraries and synthesizer patches to create the album.
During his free time, Samer enjoys arranging and performing covers of his
favorite songs and posting them on his YouTube channel. To date, his
YouTube videos have received 3 million global views.
