Niccolò Hilgendorf is a Los Angeles–based composer for film, television, and interactive media. He brings a modern approach to scoring that prioritizes feeling and audience connection above classic film music tropes, and believes in clean production, real instruments, and embracing the imperfections that make art human.

He regularly freelances for Hans Zimmer’s Bleeding Fingers Music, through which he has been commissioned to write custom music for shows such as The Traitors (NBC/Peacock) and the internationally acclaimed mobile game Arknights (Hypergryph). His music can also be found in the library catalogs of Extreme Music, APM Music, VideoHelper, Audio Attack, and Phantom Power, and have earned him thousands of placements across all major American broadcast networks as well as numerous international television productions.

Niccolò holds a Master of Music in Scoring for Film, Television, and Video Games from Berklee College of Music.
