I have been an enthusiastic musician for more than 30 years.
I saw the light of day in 1975 in the university clinic in Frankfurt
am Main. Thus I am a Hessian. I assume that I was then
immediately put into a bell-bottom romper :D
With about 12 years I got my first keyboard. At that time a
Yamaha PSR, which was not bad at that time, but which I
nevertheless exchanged with approx. 15 against the misjudged
jewel Yamaha SY85. A sampler and workstation straight from the
music fair. For back in the 90s, a pretty good synthesizer. Saw it
often in music videos. With it I began to compose my first own
songs. In the course of time my father, who was a musician and
bandleader himself for decades, noticed my talent and sent me
to a keyboard school where I learned harmony and fingerings.
After a short time, I felt -out-. "My songs were getting better and
better and increasingly I could hardly save myself from friends
and acquaintances who wanted a "tape" from me. I also began
to try other instruments. On the guitar I learned the basic chords
by myself. I then practiced the same on a bass. It was very
helpful to know the handling of the instruments on my own
fingers to know today how difficult or easy the melodies are to
play on the instruments. When I got my first PC (486 DX 33,
500KB Ram) some time later, my career as a producer took its
first steps.
When I was about 18 years old I founded a band together with
Alexander Kräker (guitar) and Alexandra Andler (vocals). "The
Loops" and we practiced in the basement until my father
surprisingly got us a special guest gig. The audience embraced
our songs and raised their lighters in the air. That was an
overwhelming feeling for us to be on stage, [ playing his own
songs and seeing the whole audience with lighters.
To this day, the fascination of producing music has not left me.
Almost every day new ideas and songs come from my hands. I
do not commit myself to a particular genre, rather I let my
feelings speak to which style I now let myself be led to today. But
the basic genres I produce are: Ambient, Chillout, Lounge,
Chillhouse, but also Pop and Ballads on the piano, RnB, Hip-Hop
and Trap. - HANDMADE - I am not a "Bob the Builder". I still
come from the old school, who still compose their music
themselves and do not copy from somewhere! However, my
great passion is to make sophisticated music in which I mostly
use spherical sounds. Be it chillout (sure) or Ambient, House,
Chillhouse, Drum n Bass, Elektro, Lounge or even Re-Mixes.
There is always a Sven Klitsch to feel.
My achieved goal is -of course- releases of my songs. In the
chillout corner, I find that after a stressful everyday life in such a
highly competitive world, beautiful music to relax and unwind is
a fine thing.However, I'm talking about sophisticated chillout and
not necessarily the DIY store displays with the scary CDs ;)
With "BrainStorm Operations" we scored good successes back
then, around 2005-2009. I was the composer and Keith Alban
was the man for the ambience in the songs. We played at several
chillout festivals and made a name for ourselves, but now I'm
going around alone again. Alone under the name "Sven Klitsch".
BrainStorm Operations as it once was, no longer exists. Only the
music still wanders around.
Since 2016 I am CEO of the music label "Chill The Planet"
chilltheplanet.com a label for ambient, chillout, lounge, easy
listening and relaxed pop.
Since 2023 I have been a member of "Fly Audio Music", a music
studio in the heart of Germany. We compose, produce, are
certified in mixing & masting and releasing in the end
professionally in over 300 stores around the whole globe in the
name of Fly Audio Music.
And the journey continues...
" Hold on tight. Here I come! "
