Licensemy music?

There´s plenty of my music ready to be licensed for your own storytelling. There’s a reason I named two of my albums Scores Without a Movie — they are designed for you to add your project to them. My catalogue offers cinematic music in all its variations, fully owned and available for licensing — ideal for film, TV, theatre, games, and all forms of storytelling. As a professional composer for film, television, theatre, and media, I bring several awards, excellent reviews, and years of experience working with renowned companies such as Swedish Public Service Broadcasting (SVT), BBC, Zentropa, and prestigious theatres like the Royal Dramatic Theatre (Dramaten), Stockholm City Theatre, Strindbergs Intima Teater, and Dansens Hus. Through these collaborations, I’ve learned that my music naturally enhances visuals — adding emotional depth, narrative strength, and a professional dimension to any project. You are welcome to listen to selections from my repertoire, available on all major streaming platforms. These pieces were composed specifically with visual storytelling in mind, covering a wide range of moods and genres — all ready to bring your project to life. The music is 100% original and rights-cleared, available for easy licensing and custom edits are available upon request. I look forward to hearing from you! Below, I’ve included a link to my full Spotify page, along with selected snippets and short, subjective descriptions suggesting how the music could be used — for example, in a western, thriller, or other cinematic context.

The full Spotify profile

The Betrayal — A haunting country-western journey of trust lost and justice sought. With twangy guitars, steady riding rhythms, and a melody steeped in the dust of the open plains, The Betrayal evokes the drama of a showdown at sunset. Perfect for scenes of tension, heartbreak, or the slow build to a decisive moment, this track carries both grit and emotion — making it an ideal fit for westerns, neo-westerns, thrillers, or any visual narrative that needs the weight of a story untold… until the last note.

VEINS — A pulse that carries both fragility and unstoppable force. Blending atmospheric textures with deep, resonant harmonies, VEINS moves like breath through the body — intimate yet vast. Its slow-burning intensity and sense of inevitability make it equally suited for the fluid expression of a contemporary dance sequence or the weight of a dramatic, fate-laden scene on the road toward a powerful resolution. Every note carries depth, drawing the listener into a world where beauty and tension intertwine until the very last moment.

Time and Time Again — The soundtrack to motion, momentum, and the thrill of arrival. Driven by an infectious groove and an up-tempo beat, Time and Time Again radiates the energy of forward motion — the open road, the rush of success, and the joy of crossing the finish line. Its upbeat pulse sets both tone and tempo, making it perfect for scenes of travel, achievement, or exhilarating speed where the audience should feel every mile, every heartbeat, and every triumph along the way.

The Theme for Cards — Power, intrigue, and the art of the slow reveal. Opening with a measured tension that tightens with every bar, The Theme for Cards feels like the first step into a high-stakes game of influence and ambition. Whether imagined as the opening theme to your own political thriller or harnessing the familiar, slow-building suspense of acclaimed Netflix dramas, this piece sets the stage for secrets, strategy, and the relentless pull toward an inevitable confrontation.

Find Your Inner Circus — A celebration of the wonderfully unexpected. Playful yet sophisticated, Find Your Inner Circus is about embracing your own originality and the art of standing out. With its colorful rhythms and offbeat charm, this track can infuse any scene with a unique, unmistakable personality — turning the ordinary into something unforgettable and helping the visual story find its own voice in the most memorable way.

Contigo Más — Your passport to a world of Latin elegance. With smooth grooves, warm melodies, and a confident sway, Contigo Más brings an unmistakable Spanish-inspired vibe to the screen. Whether it’s a stylish cityscape, a sunlit coastal drive, or any scene in need of a touch of Latin cool, this track infuses visuals with charm, rhythm, and a timeless sense of allure.

The Escape — Two stories, one heartbeat. From the pounding urgency of a high-speed getaway — whether on foot, wheels, or wings — to the razor-sharp focus of a genius scientist racing to piece together the final clue for a life-saving vaccine, The Escape is pure momentum. Its driving rhythm and escalating intensity keep the listener locked in, pushing toward a finish line where every second counts and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

The music above represents just a glimpse of my work — and only one way to imagine it in use. Every project tells its own story, and only you know the exact sound it needs. I believe there’s a piece in my catalogue that can help you capture that vision and give your scene the right original voice.
