Agnes Mot Verden hits the big screen at Den Norske Filmfestivalen Stavanger on March 12th, & will be released in theatres across Norway on March 20th. The debut from David B. Berget, it’s a beautiful story, and I’m so happy to have written the score for it! 🙏 www.filmfestivalen.no/f/agnes-mot-...

Back in 2020, I wrote the score THE FIGHT FOR GREENLAND, a doc about a nation fighting for control of its land and future. Today, with Trump’s push to 'acquire' Greenland, the story is the same: powerful outsiders are interested, but Greenlanders’ voices are clear: their home is not for sale.

A moment for ‘The Silent Lake’ from my 2021 album FIRST. In writing this track, I imagined a huge body of water in the middle of the forest. The relief of silence, trees reflected in the water’s surface. It’s an image that brings me comfort and peace. 🔗 Listen to FIRST: sanchopanza.lnk.to/first

A good end to 2025 for ANTIDOTE. Big thanks to Matt Carey @deadline.com for including it in his list of the best docs of the year. It's in great company 💪 @jamesjones.bsky.social @frontlinepbs.bsky.social @channel4tv.bsky.social @dogwoofdocs.bsky.social

A year ago, THE REMARKABLE LIFE OF IBELIN made its Netflix debut. What an incredible time it has been to see the outpouring of love for this documentary, and for Mats Steen, whose life the doc celebrates. Forever proud to have written the score. label-caster.ffm.to/ibelin

Almost two years since A NEARLY NORMAL FAMILY / EN HELT VANLIG FAMLIJ made it out into the world on Netflix. An incredible experience to see this 6-part Swedish drama fly into the Netflix worldwide Top 10 💪 Watch it now if you haven't seen it already! It's a banger.

Informer sur les exactions russes a un prix. Pendant deux ans, James Jones a suivi au plus près des opposants politiques. Il en tire “Les Empoisonneurs de Poutine”, un documentaire effarant sur la brutalité de ce régime.

US friends, you can watch ANTIDOTE in full on PBS' YouTube right now. 👀 For reference... @theguardian.com called it 'a sobering insight into the personal cost of opposing Putin...essential viewing for anyone with half an eye on the current geopolitical landscape' www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgDy...

Good to see ANTIDOTE make it into @variety.com's top 15 media docs 👀 "Anyone who knows the story of Alexei Navalny understands the risks of speaking out against Putin. In Antidote, director James Jones follows three Russian dissidents still willing to do just that:" variety.com/2025/film/fo...

My score for ANTIDOTE, the doc by @jamesjones.bsky.social that explores the cost of speaking truth to power in Putin’s Russia, is out everywhere now. It’s always a total pleasure to work with James, and I’m very proud of this piece of work! 💪 Listen now: bit.ly/3GUURbb

UK friends, have a listen to THE REMARKABLE LIFE OF IBELIN director Benjamin Ree talk to @cerysmatthews.bsky.social on her @bbcradio6musicbot.bsky.social show about the doc's subject Mats Steen, what it took to tell his story, & our collaborative musical relationship! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

THE END OF QUIET just had its premiere at #TribecaFilmFestival. It’s an extraordinary new documentary written and directed by by Kasper Bisgaard & Mikael Lypinski, and I’m happy to say I had the pleasure of scoring it. Looking forward to when this one makes its way out into the wide world!

Deeply moving to see THE REMARKABLE LIFE OF IBELIN become a #PeabodyWinner. Being part of this doc has been - and continues to be! - a true highlight of my working life. Long may it be watched, and Mats’ memory honoured ✨🌱💫 @peabodyawards.bsky.social

Arthur Franck's THE HELSINKI EFFECT hits Beldocs on 22nd/25th May! With a score by me & Patrik Andrén, we revisit the 1975 Helsinki summit through archival footage & declassified transcripts, revealing a whole lot of human drama behind Cold War diplomacy. www.beldocs.rs/en/product/t...

A few years ago, I had the pleasure of working with @jamesjones.bsky.social on CHERNOBYL: THE LOST TAPES, an exploration of the 1986 nuclear power plant disaster (streaming on NOW!). A joy to work together again more recently on the score for ANTIDOTE - coming to a screen near you soon 👀

Thank you, Cinema Eye Honors, for this incredible recognition! IBELIN continues to be a remarkable journey. I’ve had the privilege of getting to know the Steen family, reshaping my perspective on the gaming community, & collaborating with some of the finest filmmakers. This means the world to me.

Taking a moment for a track from my 2021 album FIRST - 'The Silent Lake' (vid directed by Jon Lindroth). In writing I imagined a huge body of water in the middle of a forest, trees reflected in the water’s surface. It’s an image that brings me comfort & peace in times like these. bit.ly/3448FJq
