Composer & Sound Designer
Games · Trailers · Films · Interactive Media
Composer and sound designer based in Stockholm, Sweden. Since 2017 I've specialised in games and interactive music - scores that respond, breathe and adapt alongside the player.
I've worked extensively in mobile and casino games. My previous work includes award winning short films, interactive works, commercials and 120 tracks for Epidemic Sound, featured across all major Swedish TV channels.
Trailer music is a current passion of mine. I love building tension, impact and release within a tight format. My trailer catalogue is available through MYMA Music. As a guitarist with a deep love for stringed instruments, I lean into acoustic and organic textures - layered against electronic production and cinematic sound design.
I also record as John Dunder, an atmospheric synth project that can be licensed through West Channel Music. When I'm not in the studio, I'm somewhere in the Swedish wilderness with a field recorder.
