I’m Kian (Low Zhi Xin), a music composer and producer creating original music for games, film, media, events, and storytelling.
Through The Seventh Midnight, I craft immersive soundscapes that bring worlds, stories, and experiences to life — from epic fantasy adventures and video games to cinematic projects, events, and commercial media.
With a background in composition for film and media, my work focuses on creating music that enhances emotion, atmosphere, and narrative. Whether you need an original score, a custom musical arrangement, or licensing one of my tracks for your project, I aim to create music that supports and elevates your vision and ideas.
My journey began through creating music for my own D&D adventures and those of my friends, which grew into a passion for helping others build memorable worlds through sound.
You can also find me on Youtube, Bandcamp, and Patreon.

Some are live, some are edited, but in all of them we love to put a focus on deep and authentic characters. The Seventh Midnight has now accompanied us through all of our stories — we especially love the track 51. Cheese, which we use for most of our outtakes; 57. The Last Stand, which we use for our emotionally heavy fights; and 94. The Contract, which has been the theme song for our recurring vampire villain ever since.”
