Felix K is a music composer and producer, born in Berlin City. He is known for his contributions to electronic music. K's creative process is lead by programming rhythm textures. An important aspect plays the identification of space in sound environments. He utilizes synthesis from analog machines as well as modern synthesis and often combines it with sounds taken from field recordings to add ambivalent context.

Under the impression of soundsystem music and the genres Dub, Jungle, Musique Concrete, IDM, House and Techno, he founded electronic music labels Hidden Hawaii (1998) and Nullpunkt (2013) K’s selections/DJ-appearances under the alias 'Felix K' in places of the world have always been unique. Although you can certainly recognize an immense intertext of inspirations that spans from music and movies to art and architecture, K’s’ production output is hard to pinpoint to any specific musical genre. When listening to his music, it’s easy to appreciate the way he filters his inspirational input into unique moody and dubby music.
