A castle for souls

 
Simon Boswell is a British musician and producer from London, England. He's specialized in composing music for movies, where he is well known for combining electronic elements with orchestral instruments and his music has ranged vastly in style and tone since the mid 1980s. 

His work for horror and fantasy cinema is key, especially the Italian Giallo films, where he unusually combined acoustic, slide guitar with resonant, doomy synths to create a hugely popular, apocalyptic score for which he was nominated for BAFTA’s prestigious Anthony Asquith Award. 

Along the way he has garnered many international awards and nominations including 2 BAFTAs and 1 Classical Brit. In the last years he toured extensively worldwide with his band, The And, performing his music live with an immersive, video backdrop.
