Your Remote Mixing and Mastering Engineer for Rock & Metal
I don’t just mix music. I live it.
For the past two decades, I’ve been neck-deep in rock and metal — first as a drummer, then on the road, then behind the desk turning raw tracks into weapons of mass destruction.
Here's what I've been up to:
Back in 2006, I even snagged the title of Italian Air Guitar Vice-Champion (you can’t go wrong by choosing “Ace of Spades” for an air guitar competition).
From 2005 to 2023, I rocked the stage as the drummer for Stunde Null. We conquered festivals, headlined tours, and landed two albums in the Top 20 of the German Charts (peaking at #11 and #17).
Then came the ultimate "Rockstar Internship" (2018-2020). I served as the personal assistant to the chart-topping, multi-platinum band Frei.Wild. Witnessing the industry from this vantage point was invaluable:
I worked behind the scenes for one of Germany's most successful DIY bands, assisting with organizing massive arena concerts (think 30,000 fans!) and promoting albums that went gold (see my gold award – still chasing that mixing gold, though!).
All this packed me with diverse hands-on experiences that hardly any other mixing engineer has.
Why This Matters For You
I don’t just deliver mixes. I help you:
✔ Finish songs faster without endless back-and-forth
✔ Get an outside perspective from someone who’s lived the industry
✔ Release tracks that actually stand out in today’s heavy music scene
I’ve been on stage, backstage, and behind the desk. That means I guide you with real-world experience — not theory.
Need tighter drum grooves? A release plan that works? Or just someone who actually gets the grind of making heavy music?
I’ve got your back.
Oh, and here's where the bragging rights come in:
Stunde Null "wie laut die stille schreit" (#11 German Album Charts)
Grenzen|Los "AntiXtrem" (#13 German Album Charts)
Todsünde "Herzjagd" (#81 German Album Charts)
Grenzen|Los "Mittendrin statt außen dabei" (#19 German Album Charts)
Stunde Null "Liebe für immer" (#21 German Album Charts)
Rookies & Friends "XMAS Sampler" (#3 German Compilation Charts)
