Random Handsome is Sam’s glitch alias — a composer rerouted into the simulation to let the past and future collide. When not scoring film and media, he returns to the source: the broken rhythms, emergent chaos, and deep bass roots of drum and bass. From breakbeat to now, always human. Just slightly corrupted.
Random Handsome is the alias of Samir El Borno, a composer who may or may not be a program masquerading as a human — embedded in the simulation to make music where systems fracture and soul bleeds through signal.
When not operating in the high-resolution corridors of contemporary media — composing for film, television, and orchestrated worlds — Sam reroutes his signal into the glitchstream. There, he becomes Random Handsome: a protocol forged in the analog underground, now operating in high-fidelity entropy.
His roots run deep — back to when jungle was just emerging from the static of British breakbeat. Before the genre had a name, before the grid was clean, he was there: shaping early basslines, riding vinyl turbulence, part of the code that would evolve into drum and bass. That energy never left. It mutates now through modular rigs, random LFOs, broken patterns, and dancefloor pressure.
Random Handsome is what happens when that raw memory collides with a future that’s always rewriting itself. Not a side project. Not a persona. A signal returning home — glitching across time, through the grid, back to the roots
