Biography



All Chriz Falk cares about is things being great. He captures performances that touch our souls and strives to create music that stands the test of time. To achieve this, Chriz Falk forms partnerships instantly with the artist in trying to realize the best version of who the artist could possibly be. If there is anything compelling about the artist and the musical idea, there are almost no stylistic boundaries.

After years of working on building his diverse portfolio, Chriz Falk feels equally at home at the DAW, the analogue mixing desk, the artists' home-studio or recording a symphonic orchestra. In addition, he is also a multi-instrumentalist, engineer, mixer and mastering engineer  - You could call him some kind of a „Swiss Army Knife“ of the recording studio.

As part of the Greatest Kidz collective, Chriz Falk operates his recording studio in Berlin Tiergarten.
