With his keen perception and lots of creative ideas Martin Kistner supports the b-sharp team ever since he came to us as an intern back in 2008. After receiving his Tonmeister Degree at the Universität der Künste/ Berlin in 2010 he immediately became a full time staff member. In addition to producing and engineering projects in our studio in Berlin or on location around the globe, he has become an expert editor and is the brain behind our complex re-mastering projects.

Philipp Nedel is the founder of b-sharp. He studied Tonmeister at the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin and at the Conservatoire National Superieur in Paris. As part of an internationally operating recording team he started an almost 10 year long freelancing relationship with Teldec Classics in Berlin. His long term involvement with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic was the springboard for relocating to the US, when he took a position as producer/ engineer with Soundmirror in Boston in 2000. Almost 5 years later he returned to Berlin with his family. At b-sharp he is the managing director and works as a producer/ engineer with internationally renowned artists and orchestras. The vitalizing mixture of passion and experience, the fine grasp of what makes a recording a great recording coupled with the joy of making ”it” happen, distinguishes him as well as his handpicked team.
