Ralf Hildenbeutel
A key and pioneering influence on the Frankfurt techno and trance scene of the early '90s, classically trained Ralf Hildenbeutel is also an established composer of film and TV soundtracks. Early success as a writer and producer for Frankfurt´s iconic Eye Q Records by working on Sven Väth's solo albums and on various solo projects such as Earth Nation (performing 1997 at the Montreux Jazz Festival). When Eye Q's stock fell in '97, he co-founded the production company Schallbau with Stevie B-Zet & Matthias Hoffmann, creating pop hits for the likes of Yvonne Catterfeld and Laith Al-Deen. With time, his primary concern became soundtrack composition, winning the Gold Medal at the ‘96 New York Film Festival for HOMMAGAE À NOIR. By 2008, after Schallbau folded, film music became his main focus, over the next decade he worked on no fewer than 30 different productions. There were notable solo albums, such as 2015's string-laden MOODS, before his production on Chris Liebing’s album ANOTHER DAY in ‘21 showed that club sounds were still close to his heart. Born in Frankfurt in 1969, Hildenbeutel received early training in classical performance and theory, started to learn the piano at nine years old. He developed eclectic tastes, becoming a big jazz fan. Electronic music entered his radar when he turned 14, acts such as Jean-Michel Jarre and Kraftwerk inspired him to experiment with synthies and multi-track tape recordings. He composed his first score for an TV film at just 17 years old.
