Bob Thole is an award-winning composer and music producer from the Netherlands. His music can be heard in films such as Human Forever (winner of the Golden Calf 2024 Audience Award), Drawback (winner of the Music + Sound Award 2023 for Best Original Composition in a Short Film), and Instilled (nominee for BMIM’s Best Original Music for a Documentary).

While striving for new and unique ways to experience music, he and longtime colleague and friend Vincent Witte discovered that creating a symbiosis between music and sound unlocks a new dimension of storytelling. Thus, Blurred Audio—founded by Bob and Vincent in 2022—was born. Through their vision, they work on both commercial and film-related projects.
