Ngiam Teo is a Taiwanese-born composer, musician, and conductor specialising in
performance, contemporary composition, film scoring, and game music across a wide variety of genres. Since releasing his first album, he has collaborated with indie game developers and filmmakers across multiple projects.
Originally self-taught, his early musical experience includes choir assemblies, violin and harmonica lessons, and a brief study of festive drums before turning to the piano in 2016, laying the foundation for a multidisciplinary approach grounded in independent study and artistic curiosity. He later formalised his practice at LASALLE College of the Arts, graduating with a BA (Hons) in Music.
He composes original scores for independent and student films, developing pieces that support storytelling through atmosphere and emotion. His portfolio also includes original soundtracks for various game projects.
Beyond music, Ngiam extends his creative practice into game design, filmmaking, and visual art, contributing to the direction and production of select projects. His works are often narrative-driven and occasionally incorporate elements of minimalism and surreal abstraction, exploring atmosphere, symbolism, and emotional resonance.
Through his diverse creative outputs, Ngiam crafts pieces that carry emotional depth and leave lasting memories. Outside of his artistic pursuits, he studies etymology and tends to flowers that inspire him
