Hello everyone,

My name's Moritz, I'm a freelance audio producer currently based in Hamburg, Germany.

Apart from making sounds for games, short films, animations and the occasional commercial, I perform all kinds of weird music from Gypsy Swing over Funkrock to Ambient Electronica, lead a jazz choir and teach kids how to sing, play the piano and brag about music theory properly.

This is my website:

This is my Twitter:

This is my Facebook:

This is my Soundcloud:

And this is a collection of stock photography showing women laughing alone with salad:

Shoot me a mail or use the contact form on my website if you like what you hear.

Cheers!  Gentleman

I have a problem recommending Moritz... he does really excellent work and I'm worried that one of you will hire him full-time and pull him away from our projects. Wink

I cannot more strongly recommend Moritz. His sound work is excellent, but even more so is his professionalism. He communicates regularly, he is thorough, he pays attention to detail, and he's happy to rework things that need tweaking.

Creatively he is right on the mark. He understood the tone of our game immediately and really enhanced it with his sound - our beta testers have all complimented us on the music.

Thanks for your great work, Moritz. I look forward to working with you again in the future, hopefully on many projects to come.

I've got to say, this is wonderful stuff. I especially admire how you feature your woodwinds while many, if not most, composers like to bury them under the strings.

Great work!

Just listened to the tracks on your soundcloud... first thing that I noticed was the high production quality. Very impressive stuff.

I'm interested in what you consider "indie rates" Smiley

Hey there,

I'm interested in what you consider "indie rates" Smiley

Rule of thumb: just enough so I can fill my fridge.
Not too much because I might end up spending it all on beer'n'gear. (and lose all my valuable indie cred)

Seriously though:

My rates are always customized. I give big discounts to start-ups! (I love to network and meet new dev teams)

Shoot me a mail with details about your project...
...and we'll figure something out that's fair to both sides - even if you're working on a shoestring budget! Smiley

By details, I mean things like:

  • How many tracks and/or sound effects do you need?
  • How soon do you need them?
  • What style are you thinking of?
  • How and on which platform(s) are you planning to release your game?

This info will help me give you a good deal.

Cheers,
Moritz
