Asbjoern Andersen

Asbjoern Andersen is a composer. He was hired by Nokia from 2003 to 2014 (and Microsoft Mobile from 2014 to 2015) to compose and arrange several ringtones, through his sound company Epic Sound. He is best known for working on the ringtones that were performed by the Bratislava Symphony Orchestra in 2012.

Outside of Nokia, he has composed for many video games, movies and other sonic branding projects.

Work for Nokia
Andersen's Nokia contributions date back to 2003, starting with two sets of polyphonic ringtones in 2003 and 2004, followed by several sets of vocal ringtones from 2005 to around 2010. He also contracted singers and other composers via his Epic Sound company, and had a network of ringtone composers. While his Nokia projects were once listed on Epic Sound's site, mentions of Nokia were changed to "leading mobile manufacturer" in early 2005, then removed altogether by late 2007, likely due to strict contracts.

He appears to have worked on more projects between then to 2011, while in 2012 he was hired to arrange many Nokia ringtones to be played by the Bratislava Symphony Orchestra, and also composed some himself. During 2013 to 2015 he also arranged several ringtones to be played by an acoustic band dubbed the Acoustic Ringtone Quartet, and also composed a few of his own.
