Simon Kölle

**Simon Kölle** is a Swedish film composer, producer, and writer with a career spanning over two decades. Born in Stockholm in 1977, he began as a playwright and theater director before shifting to music, eventually composing for films, TV series, and video games. His work on projects like the thriller series *Black Lake* (2018) and the documentary *Living With the Secret Kogi Tribe* (2018) has earned him accolades from industry legends like Ennio Morricone and Oliver Stone, alongside over 30 international awards. Collaborating with projects ranging from Nordic dramas (*Ingen Så Fin Som Du*, 2017) to Hollywood-adjacent productions, Kölle’s dark, cinematic soundtracks—like *The Huntress: Rune of the Dead* (2019) and the dystopian TV series *Dystopia* (2021)—blend atmospheric tension with narrative depth.

Recent projects include *Call of the Unseen* (2022) and reimagined score collections like *Themes Retold*, showcasing his versatility across media. His music often intertwines folk-inspired motifs and ambient textures, reflecting his roots in storytelling and theater.
