“I remember my friend knowing the bouncer at our local club in Lucerne who would let us in even though we weren’t old enough… A school friend introduced me to my first DAW, and I instantly started creating my own music. That was the moment when the grip of inventing my own music held me tight and never let me go.”
The deeper he went, the more te- chno became not just a genre but a language through which he could structure emotions and create cla- rity.
“It is hard for me to determine why it became my second nature… May- be with all the chaos going on in life, electronic music brought some sort of clarity and structure to me.”
His imagination, however, has
always transcended genre. Even today, he draws inspiration from hip hop, metal, pop, and classical music, transforming their emotional imprint into his own techno DNA.
“Many ideas come from listening to genres like hip-hop, metal, pop, and even classical music… I try to convert a similar vibe into my own, but in techno.”
And then came the moment that changed his life, the moment that turned the idea of Ueberrest into something irreversible.
“At one point, I was just so unhappy with who I was becoming as Tim that I stopped caring about how it’s done… Then came the day when I saw that Max Kobosil downloaded one of my tracks. That was the ultimate turning point in my life.”
He went to see Kobosil perform in Switzerland, unsure if anything would happen. But then he heard it: his track, played in front of a crowd that moved to his rhythm.
“I will never forget the moment I
heard him play my track and saw all the people dance to it. That was my ultimate point of no return.”
Stepping Into Purpose
By 2025, he made the decision that separates dreamers from artists. He quit his job and entered the unknown with no safety net, guided not by certainty but by necessity.
“Eventually, my decision to quit my job came from my ‘all or nothing’ thinking… At the end of the day, the regret of not taking risks always outweighs the regret of taking them.”
The leap did not change his sound so much as sharpen his freedom. Music had always been his refuge. Now it had become his full-time reality, offering both pressure and liberation.
“Music has always been a safe space for me, no matter what was going on in my life.”
Joining 44 Label Group gave him a home where his identity could evolve without compromise. The emotional impact of that support came full circle during his first gig, a pivotal moment in which he played an entire set of his own productions.
“On my first gig, everything I was taught was confirmed by the reac- tion of the crowd. I played an entire set with my own productions, and people loved it.”
