I grew up surrounded by music, although it did not play a significant role in my family. It came from the radio and television: German music programmes and variety shows of my childhood. Udo Jürgens in particular shaped my love of music.
As a boy I discovered brass instruments and learned much of what I played by ear. Later came keyboards and piano. I taught myself to make music, and that fascination never left me.
Training, work and everyday life did not always leave as much room for music as I wished. But the dream of my own studio remained. Today I work with keyboards, Cubase and digital instruments. Ideas become melodies, beats become arrangements, and eventually songs.
Why CADEN-Z?
Because for me, music has always carried emotion. Deep bass, warm harmonies, cinematic moments and voices with a story. CADEN-Z is where I can bring all of it together.
Artificial intelligence is also part of this process. It can create voices and support creativity. The ideas, lyrics, melodies, musical decisions and careful production remain my responsibility. I use new technology deliberately – as a tool, not a replacement for my own vision.
And Caden? She is the virtual voice of this music. A face for the stories I want my songs to tell.
