Me in the studio enjoying recording Soundful Experiences

Academic Achievements

I am completing a trauma informed Diploma in Sound therapy, hold a Certificate in Mental Health First Aid, a Master of Education in Innovation, a Graduate Certificate in International Community Development, and have been honoured with a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. I have been lecturing for 20 years in some of the world's best music conservatories and universities.


Accolades in Music

My career in music has been marked by significant achievements that reflect my dedication and expertise in sound design and audio production. I have produced engaging radio promos, directed voice talent, and created dynamic audio content that resonates deeply with audiences. I have made substantial contributions to the film and animation industry with sound design for critically acclaimed films such as "The Argentinian Escape" and "Key to a Good Marriage." 


My leadership in sound design has been evident in various international projects, where I integrated live and broadcast audio techniques that captivated event attendees at Arcadia - The Spider Spirit. Additionally, my expertise extends to cultural documentary production, where I have led projects that preserve and showcase cultural heritage through compelling audio narratives. Notable among these is the "Whadjuk to Wadjemup" documentary, which was screened nationally on SBS.


The Soundful Experience

The Soundful Experience was born out of extensive research in sound and music therapy, spirituality, and psychology. This practice captures clients' aspirations, emotional states, and various personal information and preferences, creating a holistic auditory experience designed to support your journey towards calm, clarity, and overall well-being.


Mindfulness and Soundfulness

Mindfulness is a beautiful active practice that involves paying deliberate attention to the present moment with an open and non-judgmental attitude. It requires active engagement, often through meditation or focused breathing, to cultivate awareness and clarity.


Soundfulness is a passive practice where you simply listen to sounds and music without any effort or judgement. The ear, naturally receptive, allows sounds to just happen. By letting the sounds wash over you, Soundfulness fosters a state of calm and emotional balance through the natural, receptive quality of listening. 


This meditative practice uses the power of sound and music to help you achieve a state of calm, focus, and emotional balance. By listening to carefully composed music that resonates with your personal profile, you can enhance your mental and emotional well-being.


The Soundful Experience Intent

This personalised Soundful composition integrates your aspirations, emotional state, and various personal information and preferences into a holistic auditory experience. This tailored approach aims to support your journey towards embracing the unknown with calm and clear energy, reducing stress, and promoting overall well-being. The music is designed to provide a sense of place and belonging, helping you find your path and establish a stable and joyful foundation. 


My Mission

At The Soundful Experience, my mission is to harness the therapeutic potential of sound to support emotional well-being, reduce stress, and foster a sense of place and belonging. By combining my extensive experience in music with my spiritual insights and academic knowledge, I offer personalised sound healing sessions that are as unique as each client. I invite you to join me on this journey of discovery and healing, where the power of sound can help you achieve harmony and balance in your life.




About Me


Sam Cutri - The Soundful Experience - Founder and Composer


Welcome to The Soundful Experience, where music, spirituality, and science converge to create transformative healing experiences. My name is Sam Cutri, and I am passionate about using the power of sound to promote holistic well-being and personal growth.


My Journey Through Music and Healing

From an early age, I was captivated by the power of sound and music. This fascination led me to explore various audio production disciplines, including game, traditional media, and sound design. Over the past three decades, I have honed my skills as a musician, sound designer, and audio production specialist, contributing to a wide range of projects.


I have produced engaging and memorable audio projects with artists, films, animations, festivals, and music therapy. My compositions for "The Argentinian Escape" and “Arcadia - The Spirder Spirit” have been critically acclaimed internationally, showcasing my ability to manage varied audio productions and elevate culturally aware narrative and storytelling.


My spiritual journey is as rich and varied as my musical path. I have travelled the world, meditating, studying, and playing music in Ashrams. These experiences allowed me to immerse myself in deep spiritual practices and explore the transformative power of music. Owning a healing centre and running meditation and healing groups further solidified my belief in music's ability to heal and transform. These experiences led me to a clear path of healing through music and The Soundful Experience practice, a unique approach that integrates music's ancient wisdom with modern techniques to help clients achieve deep states of relaxation and awareness.
