Who we work withBrands and agencies

Brands, creatives
and agencies

A creative and a project lead in conversation in a gallery

Your brand, your product or your catwalk is the starting point. Together, we build the whole experience around it.

We love working with the creatives at the brand or agency. You bring the concept and brand identity; we translate them into light, sound and music.

That way, a product demo, a shop window or a catwalk becomes a moment that fits seamlessly into the rest of the campaign.

Creating it together

The moments that make the difference

  • The reveal of a product or collection
  • A demo area where the product takes centre stage
  • The shop window or the in-store moment
  • The catwalk
  • A photogenic spot or branded backdrop

  • The shift into a party, if the night calls for it

The sound of your brand

Music for brands

Every brand has its own sound. For products and collections, Maarten brings a refined sound rooted in warm electronic music: subtle enough for a presentation, with enough groove for the evening that follows. Matched to the collection or campaign, as a DJ set or a playlist for each moment.

Retail and concept stores

Music for retail

In your store, the music should feel like your brand too. With an in-store event, a launch or a Sunday shopping session with a DJ, your store becomes a destination for an afternoon or evening, with light and sound that suit your collection.
