Two Steps from Hell is an American production music company based in Los Angeles, California, renowned for its wide-ranging influence on the music used in modern film trailers, television shows, and video games. Founded in 2006 by composers Thomas Bergersen and Nick Phoenix, Two Steps from Hell has built a formidable reputation for creating high-impact, orchestral music that combines the power of classical arrangements with contemporary instrumentation and sound design. The duo has revolutionized trailer music, with their compositions being featured in trailers for some of Hollywood's biggest blockbusters, including Harry Potter, Pirates of the Caribbean, and The Avengers, among many others.

Though initially aimed at the movie industry, Two Steps from Hell's music has since gathered a massive fanbase outside of just filmmakers and industry professionals. Their albums such as "Invincible," "Archangel," and "SkyWorld" have provided listeners with epic and emotional soundscapes that lend themselves to everything from studying to workouts to just casual listening. Their signature blend of cinematic orchestras, choirs, and a modern edge is showcased in more recent releases like "Am I Real," "Blackout Suite 2023," and "One Above All 2023." These titles further demonstrate the duo's uncanny ability to continually push the boundaries of the epic music genre while maintaining their status as giants in the world of theatrical and trailer music.
