For two years, I chose silence.
I didn’t disappear. I was just elsewhere.
As far back as I can remember, I’ve dreamed of flying.
Music is the closest thing to it.
Exploring distant lands, without limits, infinite.
It allowed me to escape, time and time again, from a reality that can sometimes feel heavy.
I’ve loved music deeply since the day I was born, with my whole being, with my whole soul.
Over the past two years, I chose sobriety.
Without public waves.
A pause to recenter, observe, understand, and finally act.
And it did me an immense amount of good.
I was able to fully focus on my work at Native Instruments and iZotope,
first as a Creative Producer, then as a Campaign Manager.
Today, I work freelance as an A&R and Producer for Ableton.
More importantly, this period allowed me to reconnect with the deeper reason why I make music in the first place:
what I truly love,
what genuinely resonates within me,
with complete honesty.
That’s how my second album was born:
“The Brightest Light”,
to be released in June 2026.
A cosmic journey of the soul,
from its incarnation on Earth
back to its point of origin in the universe.
Was it worth it?
Yes. A thousand times yes.
I learned how to love, how to be grateful, how to know myself,
how to surround myself better, how to make the right choices.
And my love for music has only grown stronger.
2026 is the year of my return.
The year of the album, new collaborations,
the launch of my label
@goldenkarmaaa ,
and much more to come.
