Hans Appelqvist
Hans Appelqvist (born 1977, Höör) is a Swedish composer and musician based in Stockholm, Sweden.
He debuted in 2002 with Tonefilm, an album described as a "film-less soundtrack" reminiscent of DJ Shadow's work.[1]
Bremort (2004), a quasi-radio drama about a fictional Swedish town, blends electronica, sampled atmospheres and dialogues. It won the prize for Best Album in the pop category at Sweden’s National Radio’s music awards, P3 Guld.
Appelqvist also works as composer and sound designer for projects in film, theater, and dance. He has collaborated with Swedish director-animator Niki Lindroth von Bahr on short films such as the award-winning The Burden (2017).
In 2019, Appelqvist was awarded the prize for Best Music at the IDA Documentary Awards for his work on director Marcus Lindeen’s documentary The Raft (sv).[2]
