Crystin

從14歲起 Crystin 就開始了歌唱以及個人創(chuàng)作，在最初用的一架鋼琴上面，
她已經(jīng)顯示出了非常良好的樂感。過不了多久，她就開始用原始的錄音設(shè)備在磁帶或CD上錄制自己寫的歌
曲。為了實現(xiàn)其成為職業(yè)歌手的理想，她放棄了原先修讀的法律專業(yè)，終究選擇了她所熱衷的音樂事業(yè)。
先是成立了個人的錄音室，靠著她當(dāng)初并不足道的才能，她最早的工作是為廣告機構(gòu)、公司活動、電視、
電臺的廣告寫一些商業(yè)歌曲。在她樂在其中的時候，她突然發(fā)現(xiàn)，自己原可以在這方面走得更遠，
于是她以自己獨特的方式在她自己力所能及的范圍內(nèi)內(nèi)發(fā)行了她的歌曲。03年的時候，她成為
了一個新生代錄音廠牌‘electric-lounge’重要的創(chuàng)作力量，她遇上了獨具慧眼的制作人
Wasja Schulz，于是，05年的時候她的首張個人專輯‘Pop Lounge’誕生.
‘Pop Lounge’的多元化的成熟作品具有打動人心的特性，顯示出了
作者Crystin本身對音樂的獨特理解，每一首歌都配上時尚前衛(wèi)的插圖，
從五光十色紛繁的歡快感受，到顯而易見的憂郁感傷，無一不備。?
From the age of 14, Crystin has been singing and writing songs, at first, simply on the piano for the sheer joy of it. Later she used basic recording equipment to put her songs on tape or on CD. Keeping the dream of becoming a professional songwriter mostly to herself, she headed for university after leaving school to study law. Inevitably, though, her surpassing passion for music drew her into the music business, where she earned her wings not only as a singer-songwriter, but as a producer. In 2003 she became an important motive and creative force at the 'electric-lounge' label, achieving releases on more than 45 compilations, some in such places as Taiwan, the UK and the USA.
In 2004/2005 she wrote and produced her first solo-album 'PopLounge', which was released in Sept. 2005.
In 2007 she wrote and produced her second "baby", the "Astronaut" album. The single "You make my day" got serious airplay on almost all major radio-stations in Germany. In the meantime, many tracks from her two solo-albums have since been re-released on various international compilations.
Crystin writes and produces her music almost entirely on her own, though there are a number of people who have become essential to her sound: Sven-Olaf Dirks and Stuart Watkins (of Canada) who play bass, Sebastian Müller (her twin brother), Markus Segschneider and again Sven-Olaf Dirks who play the guitars which have become characteristic of much of her music... She owes them much!
In 2007 Crystin and the Ex-Les Mercredis musician Marco Petracca formed an electro-project called Hearhere. They wrote and produced their first EP entitled "Breathing" and created a unique sound, featuring an intriguing interplay of Crystin's soft voice and Marco's aggressive beats, both of which, being in extreme contrast to each other, interact to create a suspenseful synthesis.
In 2007/2008 Crystin wrote and produced songs for a number of artistically acclaimed films (Doris D?rrie's Hanami, Leander Hau?mann's Robert Zimmermann wundert sich über die Liebe, and Simone Wiest's Behind the Curtain) - sometimes under different names such as Goldin. She joined the multi-national Venus International project and made a Leevey remix for the Mode 2 record-label (together with Andreas Sch?neberger).
In 2008 Crystin received the F?rderpreis Musik/Komposition 2008 of Düsseldorf, a renowned sponsorship prize for meritorious achievements in musical composition for young artists.
Quite tragically, shortly before being accorded the prize, Crystin lost her voice in an unfortunate accident. At the time, the prognosis was that she would never sing again. Undeterred by this devastating prognosis Crystin concentrated on music production and tirelessly worked on her impaired voice...
She is therefore unbelievable happy to release her 2010 EP "Everything", which contains 6 brand-new songs. In November of the same year she is to release the full album – "The Escaped One"!
