Ben Lord

Ben Lord is a composer and software developer. He worked for Nokia between 2011 and 2015 (which had become Microsoft Mobile at that point) and composed many ringtones and music tracks. Afterwards, he primarily shifted his career to software development, but still does music on a freelance basis. He has worked on music tracks for HMD Global Nokia phone commercials as well as sounds for Xiaomi phones (along with fellow ex-Nokia colleague Henry Daw).

Prior to joining Nokia, he worked at the music company Mushka Music in a writing partership with fellow composer Robin Datta, writing music for commercials, TV idents and production music libraries. He also worked with groups such as The Funky Lowlives, where he sung and co-wrote lyrics for songs such as "Sail into the Sun". During his later time at Nokia, he collaborated with fellow Nokia composer Tapio Hakanen (Orkidea) on "Neo Romance".
