Arkfoo - Part of Something Beautiful

ARKFOO is a multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter, producer, and engineer whose music blends deep emotion with intricate composition. A graduate of the University of California, Berkeley, with a degree in Music Theory and Composition, ARKFOO has dedicated his life to mastering the craft of songwriting and production. His work spans over 300 original compositions written and produced within the last 18 months alone as a staff composer for ALIBI Music—resulting in placements across major television shows, film trailers, and international media campaigns. He has also scored two feature films, further establishing his versatility across the sonic and cinematic landscape. ARKFOO’s sound—often compared to the moody and heartfelt tones of Thom Yorke (Radiohead), the sensibilities and harmonic richness of Coldplay’s Chris Martin, and the cinematic depth of Hans Zimmer—explores themes of human emotion, connection, transformation, and memory. In 2025, ARKFOO released Part of Something Beautiful, a 12-song album that encapsulates five years of artistic and personal evolution. Co-produced by Ryan Herma, with additional tracks produced by Grammy-winning legends Joe Chiccarelli (The White Stripes, The Strokes, Beck) and Ken Andrews (Failure, Paramore, Nine Inch Nails), the record forgoes modern trappings like autotune and recycled beats in favor of something honest and original. Accompanying the album is a novel written by ARKFOO that threads each of the 12 songs into a broader narrative of self-discovery, love, and meaning. Together, the record and book form a unified, immersive experience—an invitation into the inner world of an artist unafraid to feel deeply and say something real.
