Norwegian composer celebrated for cinematic orchestral and trailer music, co-founder of Two Steps from Hell. Born in Trondheim, Norway, Bergersen studied music at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology before moving to Los Angeles. In 2006, he co-founded the production music company Two Steps from Hell with Nick Phoenix. His compositions power trailers for major films like 'Harry Potter' and 'Interstellar', while his solo albums showcase genre-blending innovation.

• Bergersen's 'Illusions' (2011) and 'Sun' series redefined epic music, blending orchestral traditions with electronic elements for standalone listening experiences.
• Despite massive commercial success, Bergersen maintains artistic independence, self-releasing albums like 'Humanity' (2020) through his label without mainstream promotion.
• He pioneered 'public performance music', creating concert-worthy pieces specifically for non-film contexts—a radical shift in trailer-music conventions.
• A multi-instrumentalist, Bergersen records ethnic instruments globally for his albums, notably featuring Mongolian throat singing in 'Mountain Call'.
