About

This is the site of composer and music theoretician Benjamin Botkin.

Here you can find samples of his compositions as well as articles, analytical reviews and commentary on the theory, philosophy, theology, history, mechanics, science, technology and future of music. Benjamin Botkin is a Christian composer dedicated to taking the realm of music captive to the obedience of Christ by the continual reforming of ideas, presuppositions, and actions in accordance with Biblical principles.

Since he started composing for film and visual media in 2005, Benjamin has composed the music for several feature, documentary, short, and promotional films, and lectured on film scoring at the Christian Filmmakers Academy and the San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival. He is entirely self-taught in composition, arrangement, and orchestration.

Benjamin lives with his beautiful wife Audri in Centerville, Tennessee.
