· My path

How music became my life.

From the first keys as a child to my own studio — 21 years in pictures.

~2002 · First keys
First piano
At the piano with my brother — the very first touch of music. I was about 5 when I started taking lessons.
~2004 · First drum kit
First drums
Christmas morning. My first drum kit. The beginning of everything.
~2012 · Church & guitar
Church guitar
My pastor asked if I could play not just drums but also guitar. So I started guitar lessons — and suddenly found myself on stage every week.
~2016 · Singer-Songwriter
Acoustic guitar beach
Playing in church every week — Friday evenings at Youth, Sunday mornings in front of 300–500 people. Own songs, finding my voice.
~2016 · Live
Playing more and more live — guitar, vocals, everything at once.
~2016 · First home studio
First studio
My first setup: 3 screens, FL Studio, headphones — producing at night after work.
~2017 · Bricklayer apprenticeship
Apprenticeship
Bricklaying by day, music by night. Two lives at once — but music was always the north star.
~2018 · Acoustic duo
Acoustic duo
Acoustic duo with my sister — she's a musical actress who studied in Vienna. Together we played at weddings and birthdays.
~2018 · On the road
Always on the move, always playing.
~2019 · Growth
Skills growing, vision getting clearer.
~2021 · KB Studios is born
KB Studios
KB Studios full
KB Studios — my own professional studio. Neon blue, 5.1 monitoring, all planned and built myself.
~2021 · Studio tour
A walkthrough of the finished studio.
~2022 · At the console
Mixing console
At the big console. Mixing, producing, shaping sound — this is my element.
~2022 · Recording session
Recording session
Professional recording session — guitarist in the booth, me at the console.
~2023 · In the flow
Everything coming together — producing, mixing, my own songs.
~2020 · SAE Institute
SAE Institute
SAE Institute — Bachelor in Audio Engineering. Theory meets years of practice.

Mark Otten — my coach. Now three years in.
· The drive

Obsession. Not talent.

When someone says I have talent, that's the last thing I want to hear. I've been grinding — for 21 years straight.

🥁 6 YEARS OLD
First drum hit
I was six. From that moment I knew: music isn't what I do. Music is what I am.
🎸 5 INSTRUMENTS
Drums, guitar, piano, bass, voice
Not because it's cool. Because every instrument made me a better producer and songwriter.
🎓 BA AUDIO ENGINEERING
SAE Institute
Three years of study to understand what's behind the sound. Not just creative — technical.
⛪ LIVE SOUND
FOH & IEM Engineer
Years behind FOH and IEM consoles for live events — Hillsong DACH, conferences, big stages. I know both sides: on stage and behind the desk.

This is not a talent story. This is discipline, obsession, and 21 years of choosing this — every single day.

· The sound

Finding my own sound.

I don't want to sound like everyone else. I experiment with instruments and textures that don't normally belong in EDM — and make them my signature.

Distorted bass with synth
Hackbrett — Swiss signature

Distorted basses from synth experimentation. A hackbrett as Swiss signature — the instrument of my homeland. Brass elements for warmth and scale. Songwriter melodies over festival drops. Every element comes from a different world — together they only sound like Crownd.

EDM with songwriter depth. Festival sound with goosebump moments. That's the Crownd sound.

· The system

A symbol built for stadiums.

Designed for LED walls, laser outlines and stadium silhouettes — readable at 12 metres or 12 pixels.

· Why PRMD

I know where I'm headed. And I know I need the right partner to get there.

My goals are big. Stadiums. Worldwide releases. Music that touches millions. For that I don't need just any label — I need one with real experience. And when I study PRMD, I see exactly that.

YOUR TRACK RECORD
Experience you can see
I've studied what PRMD has built. Not just the successes — the way you develop artists long-term. That's rare. And that's exactly what I'm looking for.
CAREER, NOT MOMENT
Long-term thinking
I'm not looking for a quick deal. I'm looking for someone who builds a career with me. Strategic. Honest. Real.
WHAT I BRING
Ready for the next step
Multiple finished tracks. Thought-through brand identity. 21 years of musical foundation. BA Audio Engineering. 3 years coaching with Mark Otten (STMPD generation). The music is there — now I need the right infrastructure.
TOGETHER
A real partnership
I bring the sound, the vision, and the work ethic. You bring the experience and the infrastructure. Together we build something that lasts.

It would be an honor to work with you.
