In the artist's words:

Whether lean, precise beats, shimmering melodies or bilingual lyrics with depth, Carlo5 always delivers when the vibes and weather are right. With tracks such as "Sommersemester", "Perdu" or "Ich bleib", he has finally secured the title of the man who mixes the soundtrack for the hottest days of the year. Whether at the lake with his best friends, at breakfast on the roof terrace or live in Hamburg's St. Pauli district: when Carlo5 is there, summer comes right along with him.

His voice - rough, warm, unmistakable - carries through his own productions, which fuse indie rock, synth pop, hip-hop and electronic elements. The result: a modern, danceable sound with character, energy and surprising sensitivity.

His path has taken him through many roles: Producer for German rap greats such as Xatar, Eno or Edo Saiya, writer for various pop artists and finally to his own spotlight.
