About me

Being a musician myself, I know what is important when it comes to writing, playing and recording music. Born in 1977, I started playing drums when I was 8 years old and taught myself how to play guitar by the age of 13. Having played countless shows with various bands on drums and guitar,
I shared the stage with The Scorpions, Nina Hagen, Doro, W.A.S.P. etc., played festivals like Wacken Open Air, Wave Gothik Treffen, Summer Breeze and so on. With my own bands we published several cds on different record companies like AFM Records, Steamhammer/SPV GmbH etc.
Producing music has always been my passion and so I decided in 2002 to build my own studio. Since then I am a professional music producer and have recorded, mixed and mastered hundreds of records from various genres including bands for record companies like AFM Records, SPV GmbH, SAOL, 7Hard, Massacre Records, etc.
