My name is Andreas, but you can call me Driss. I got my first DAW when i was 13 years old, and have worked with music since then, both playing instruments and with producing, writing and engineering. Music is my passion, and there is nothing i love more than making music sound its very best. My service isn't finished until we get the best possible sound.

Working with top artists from Denmark and top labels like Universal, Warner, Sony and Epic records.

Other than making amazing sounding records, i really do my best communicating and making the process as neat and nice as possible for all the parts. I work with many genres, and i am always open for doing new things, so let's have a chat a bout your project, and see if it is a match.

I use UAD, Fabfilter, Brainworx, Antares, Plugin Alliance, Soundtoys and more. I have the digital precision + the analog sound using my top quality plugins.

I have an university degree in popular music and audio engineering from Aalborg University, Denmark (BA in Music).

I was also formerly signed to Universal Music Group as a producer for a pop/edm dj project called Loud Colors.

I look forward hearing from you and hearing your song. Every song is a masterpiece, that we gotta respect in every way, and it is a very honor for me to bring your song to life.

Andreas is very skilled engineer- he knows how to create modern mixing styles, and bring his own ideas to make a even better production. It’s a pleasure to work side by side producing with Andreas, because he is calm, listen and bring a great atmosphere to a room of creativity. I will definitely recommend him in both mixing/ mastering/ producing

Interview with Andreas 'driss' Kempe

Q: Analog or digital and why?
