Swedish electronic music composer Magnus Birgersson aka Solar Fields built a unique sonic universe with a constant shifting from high tech ambient flow into broken beats, powerful sequences and fragmented loops.

The productive discography of Magnus Birgersson should be considered like a following of drifting masterpieces: 6 solo albums the latest one Solar Fields Movements. Often classified as ambient or electronica, Solar Fields music in fact goes further than these boundaries propelled by his talent for sculpting hypnotic harmonics and layering sounds.

Solar Fields is also the man behind the in game score for Electronic Arts (EA) video game Mirror’s Edge.

"Before I used a huge mixer, it took up a lot of space so I needed to change. I got the Fireface 800 and now I can do exactly the same with the TotalMix. An amazing solution for routing and flexibility and it works flawless without any problems. This is the heart in the studio and all gears is hooked up in to it. Since im a hardware freak I need a reliable solution with a lot of inputs and outputs and with excellent sound quality and this is what RME brings to me."
