[edit] History
Magnus Birgersson was involved in many projects as a teenager, playing drums, various percussion, piano, and keyboards for several bands before launching his own Solar Fields project in 2001 with the album Reflective Frequencies.[2]
His music has been described as electronic ambient, atmospheric, deep, ecstatic, industrial, yet organic.
In 2007 he began composing the in-game score for Mirror's Edge, a first-person action adventure game by Electronic Arts and DICE, released worldwide on 14 November 2008.
The album "Movements" is used as soundtrack for the Indi-game Capsized from the small Canadian studio AlienTrap Software in 2011.
