Pepsi Throwback.

Sound design & mix for the Pepsi x Florian Wirtz spot.

Fast cuts, physical movement, clear energy - built around Makeba, with the goal of keeping the sound tight and punchy without fighting the music.

Smooth process and great trust from the team at @filmdeluxe_berlin. Thanks to everyone involved.

Xiaomi - Vision GT

As our first project composing for @xiaomievdesign, this one felt special. Finding the right balance between innovation and emotion was a beautiful challenge.

For this project, we focused on translating the appeal of “sand” into music. Texture, movement, tiny particles shifting and flowing - interpreted in a futuristic way. From the first frame, it felt clear that the music had to live in that same space.

Thanks to everyone involved in bringing this vision to life 🤍

Deloitte / Together Makes Progress - From Office Sounds to Music

Our mission was to let a song grow out of everyday office sounds - the quiet rhythm of keyboard typing, familiar notification tones from phones and computers, all those small signals that usually fade into the background of a working day.

In the end, it felt like a very honest way of translating “Together Makes Progress”: many small parts, moving forward at their own pace, becoming something bigger when they come together.

Huge thanks to the entire cast & crew.

Special thanks to @oliverbernotat for the bold concept and for opening up such a playful sound playground, and to @27km (especially @stephaniesolterbeck, Frederik Poppenk and @jannisfreestyle) and @deloitte for trusting the idea, embracing the experiment, and carrying it all the way forward.

For @naturland_official’s new sustainability commercial, we handled the VO recording, sound design, and mix - keeping everything focused on the theme of mindful, forward-thinking agriculture.

We recorded the voiceover with @larissariess, whose presence and precision made the session a great experience. Her delivery carried exactly the balance the spot needed.

Always thankful for teams who value thoughtful storytelling as much as good sound.

Chabos wasn’t just a sound project - it was a sonic time machine.

A special chapter in this journey was the recording with Béla Réthy ( @belarethy_official ). Sitting in the studio with him, hearing this legendary voice live through our headphones, was almost surreal. For an entire country, his voice is bound to the “Sommermärchen”- the 2006 World Cup that unfolded at exactly the same time the series is set. Bringing it into Chabos meant stitching our story directly into the fabric of that moment in time.

For us, this was the essence of the Chabos sound design: to blur the line between memory and present, between noise and narration, between public and private. Looking back, the process was as much about rediscovering our own past as it was about shaping Peppi’s.

🎶 Behind the Sound of Chabos: Our Production on “Beasty Boyz” and “Ugly”

Beasty Boyz – The Series’ Title Track
---
As the electrifying opener for Chabos, “Beasty Boyz” bursts onto the scene with unapologetic 2000s flair and youthful chaos. It sets the tone for the series’ themes of friendship, identity, and self-image - loud, raw, and full of nostalgic swagger. Produced by @borismerkfeld, Vocals by @morrellmusic

Ugly – The Emotional Thread of Mascha & Peppi
---
“Ugly” channels Mascha’s raw emotions, underscoring the tension in her relationship with Peppi. Instead of quiet vulnerability, the track highlights her moments of lashing out - where pride, hurt, and unspoken feelings collide. Produced by @borismerkfeld, Vocals by @nair.artist

We’ve been gone for a minute — now we’re back on screen 📺

CHABOS is here and we have spent the last few months creating the full sound universe, from immersive sound design and mixing to the title song “Beasty Boyz” and the song “Ugly”, both produced by @borismerkfeld.

This raw, coming-of-age drama takes you from gritty 2000s Duisburg through memory’s most honest and messed-up moments. Premiering today on zdf mediathek, the series jumps between adult Peppi and his teenage self – filled with flip phones, LAN-party thrills, and buried regrets.

𝐀𝐍𝐒𝐎𝐑𝐆 𝐆𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐀 / 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥 𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 (DC)
