Daniel Ramírez Guerrero (Mexico City, 1995) Daniel Ramírez Guerrero is a Mexican composer and pianist whose work explores the relationship between sound, color, and sensation. He began his musical training at the age of 15, studying piano at Freo Note.
In 2013, he began his studies in composition and continued developing his musical practice under the guidance of Alex Naranjo. His musical influences range from rock and progressive music to contemporary and classical composition, including Queen, The Beatles, Nirvana, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Igor Stravinsky, Olivier Messiaen, Juventino Rosas, Claude Debussy, Thomas Adès, and Alfred Schnittke. In 2016, he joined the Centro de Investigación y Estudios de la Música (CIEM), where he studied Composition and Music Theory. In 2020, he obtained a Licentiate Diploma from the London College of Music in Music Literacy (Theory of Music). His work includes collaborations in film and contemporary music. In 2019, he collaborated with Acorazado Films during the 48 Hour Film Project, composing the soundtrack for the short film "6 P.M". In 2020, he participated in the CIEM-AMCI collaborations, creating music for several short films. In 2021, his composition Beast Flow, written for percussion and electronics, was presented at the Expresiones Contemporáneas festival in Mexico City. Daniel describes himself as a “colorist,” approaching composition through the exploration of the connections between colors, sensations, and sound. His music investigates different harmonies, scales, intervals, and structures as a means of translating ideas and emotions into sound. His work reflects the complexity of human experience while seeking to create a distinctive musical language and individual structure for each composition.
