Christian S. Nickel on SoundBetter

Music producer from Germany.

Hi!

I'm Chris, an certified audio engineer from Germany.

After graduating in Music Business at the Popakademie BW, I started as an audio engineer freelancer.
I worked with artists like Birds & Wolves, Artyom, Circuit Breach, Frantic Disruption or Cenjiin.

My biggest production inspirations are the works of Steven Wilson, Andy Wallace and Andrew Scheps.

Due to my own background as a guitarist, I'm drawn to any rock or metal music and it's production. But besides that I generally work on any piece of music, despite its genre.

I work til the complete satisfaction of my customers!

I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.
