Biography

Born 1978 in Berne, Switzerland. Living in Berlin. Father of two daughters.

Lecturing at ZHDK University Of The Arts since 2007. When I teach students one-on-one, I am mainly interested in your own personal journey as an alter ego, helping you find your proper voice as a songwriter, producer or overall as a performing artist. At the core of that are always the music and the words - but it really expands quickly to all other areas of your artistic vision… the look, the feel, the sound, the production, the philosophy, the team, the “dos and don’ts”, the “why am I doing this?”, the nerdy little details between the lines, the music business, the technical aspects, the big dream vs. the feasibility,…

Decided to become a Songwriter & Producer at the tender age of 6. Took some classes at Swiss Jazz School and a scholarship to Berklee College Of Music in the 90ies but really pretty much self taught. Still loving every bit of the journey. Still pushing forward. Still thinking that my best songs will yet have to be written.

When teaching, I am really more interested in your songs than mine. But because you asked, below you'll find the hard facts and the name dropping.

Anything else, just ask. Thank you for attending my TED talk.
