Solar Fields is the stage name of Swedish electronic music artist Magnus Birgersson. He has released several albums, and has also scored all interactive in-game music for the Electronic Arts game Mirror's Edge.
Wow, I definitely missed the bus on this guy, but in the last couple months, I have become well familiar with his material, and I have to say, it is just epic. Lots of percussive ambient, but with enough atmospheric pads to really flesh out the tracks, and give his music a spacey, epic quality. Indeed, track after track after track, Solar Fields is just a joy to listen to. Truly, he ranks right up there with Vangelis, Benn Jordan, Solar Quest, and the other ambient heavy weights (John Serrie, etc.).
