Miguel is self-taught and has a passion for playing and collecting every musical instrument known to man.

Throughout his Medical School years at the University of Coimbra, Miguel started playing in several ensembles from Orchestra to Ethnic and Jazz to Folk. The instruments played varied almost as much as the ensembles; keyboards, guitar, bass guitar, cavaquinho and soprano sax.

After graduation, and the odd job as cartoonist and scuba diver instructor in Lisbon, Miguel decided to resurface in London. Miguel started to study audio production and orchestration and a few months later, Indie rock band, Lapland invited him to join their ensemble playing keyboards and trumpet. The band toured the UK for two years and recorded a couple of albums. Later, a student from the London Film School would ask him to score his graduation film, and that would be the turning point for his career in Film scoring.

Between 2004 and 2007, Miguel was also an Audio Editor for Showreel magazine, where he wrote about film music, audio software and studio gear.

Miguel is a member of PRS, a full voting member of BAFTA, member of BASCA and a visiting tutor at the NFTS.
