Tobias Hellkvist (b. 1984) is a Swedish composer and sound artist. Whilst being best known musically for his ambient, drone and electroacoustic output, where he blends electronic and organic sound worlds together, he's also been active within genres such as punk, folk and indie rock since the early 2000's, both solo and in different bands. 
 After releasing his first widely distributed solo album Evolutions in 2010, as well as the follow-up Everything Is Connected in 2012, both on the well renowned ambient label Home Normal, Hellkvist gained worldwide recognition for his music in which he combines dense layers of heavily processed drones and synthesized textures with acoustic instruments and field recordings. His cinematic atmospheres was referred to as dynamic, varied and “packed full of life”. 
 Over the years, Hellkvist has been taking part in various collaborations, compilations and remix projects and has performed live in Copenhagen, London and Los Angeles. His music has been used in several short films, commercials, art installations and performances. In 2017, Hellkvist teamed up with fellow drone/ambient artist Andrew Tasselmyer (of Hotel Neon) to form Mordançage, a collaborative project which resulted in a self titled debut released in 2018. 
 Born in a small town outside of Malmö in the Swedish south, Hellkvist currently works as a sound designer and foley artist, while also doing occasional production, mixing and mastering work for other artists and labels.
