There’s a particular kind of artist who carries geography in their music, not as a postcard reference, but as something cellular.
@david_mayer is one of them. Raised between Germany, Spain, and Norway before settling in Berlin, Mayer has spent two decades distilling movement into sound.
His new label,
@sonararecords , co-founded with producer
@tookermusic , marketing strategist Jay Kurahashi-Sofue, and fellow artist
@nico_stojan is less a business venture than a living philosophy: part creative shelter, part wild idea generator, part chosen family. Born creatively out of Tooker’s studio on the Sardinian island of San Pietro, and energised by the strategic pulse of Brooklyn and Berlin, SONARA sits at the intersection of wild intuition and grounded structure.
With his debut release "Essence" already mapping the emotional terrain ahead, Mayer talks about what it means to build something real in an industry that rewards speed, why simplicity is the hardest discipline to master, and how a breakup, a Panorama Bar epiphany, and a fellowship of like minds all led him exactly here.
