Otto Nilsson Music

I'm Otto Nilsson, a media composer from Sweden, and my passion is to tell stories and colour ideas through music! 🎬🎮🎵

The first piece of film music I can recall hearing was Basil Poledouris' wonderful score for Free Willy. The main theme used to send shivers down my spine (and still does today), and it made me feel very strongly for the character of Willy and his human friend Jesse.

My fascination and passion with film music, though, began at the age of seven when I saw Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade together with my father. That was the first time I really understood that a person had sat down and written the fantastic music I was hearing. The distinctive themes that John Williams employs in that film are just marvellous and also very effective. Since then, film music has been, and always will be, close to my heart.

So subscribe now, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or a project in need of some sweet tunes! 🙏🎵🤩

A while ago I was asked by the immensely talented Alexander Eklund to compose an orchestral version of his song “Easier”. I obviously jumped at the opportunity and started with the intro, trying to keep the tone of the original while still giving it an orchestral and cinematic flavour.

It has been a tremendous experience to try and add something from my domain, into his. I'm super proud of the result so it would mean the world to me if you could give it a listen! 🎶🔊

A heartfelt and special thank you to Alex for giving me this opportunity and believing I could do his very emotional song justice! 🙏😍

Orchestral version composed, mixed and produced by: Yours truly
Original composed by: Alex Oakland, Robert Kolar and Lukas Fredriksson
Vocals recorded at: Koda Audio
Mastered by: Hoffe Stannow at Cosmos Mastering

Available for streaming now! 🎵❤️
