Danish composer Flemming Nordkrog's atmospheric music has plenty of body and texture, but it's with images that it really comes into its own, magnetized by the medium. The melancholy breath of his Nordic origins led him to work on several occasions for Lars Von Trier's production company, Zentropa; but a certain crossbreeding emerges from Flemming Nordkrog's work, which is also attracted by a warmer, lighter style ( Swinger, Happy Ending ).
In addition to feature films, Flemming Nordkrog regularly composes for TV series, including the highly acclaimed Follow the Money by Jeppe Gjervig Gram (also the author of Borgen ) and season 2 of Chefs (France 2), by Arnaud Malherbe and Marion Festraëts; a writing duo with whom he has renewed his collaboration for Moloch, to be broadcast on ARTE.
In French cinema, he has worked on all Philippe Lioret's latest films, Erik Zonka's Soldat blanc, Matthieu Vadepied's La Vie en grand, and Manele Labidi's multi-award-winning Divan à Tunis.
From the friction of a string to the thud of a keyboard, Flemming remains attached to the human factor and the reality of sound in every detail. This affinity, sharpened by a two-faceted youth in band, guitar in hand and tuba in chamber music, makes him an atypical musician, preferring intimate formations to massive orchestras.
