HAPPY TO SEE YOU HERE!

I am motivated by creative people who possess a curious mind and an open heart. I believe that there are parallels between creations in any art form - and if we care to make room for in-depth listening into every    aspect of life, we shall see wisdom becoming audible to the emotional ear. 
​             I am driven by how everything is connected.

Mons Niklas Schak works with the concept of hyper-realistic sound experiences in unique spaces and environments. His latest release, 'Redemption Sound', is a musical memoir that celebrates six classic car brands from the 20th century. These iconic vehicles symbolize the quiet strength of post-war Europe, representing reliability, avant-garde, technology, personal stories, the American dream, and advanced engineering.

​​Baschet sounds  Theme on the film In Vitro ​Composed 2019

2014  Recollective was released in on http://www.audiobulb.com
I made the album using the alias “Man Eats Fish”. It is characterized by concrete sounds with presence, combined with abstract electronic texture and newly written and recorded music for string quartets. ‘Lost memories’ are the main theme on Recollective.

This release sounds more like a cohesive unit than a collection of track and, even if it's truly impressive, it's a release that acts as a quiet soundscape of everyday activities. A nice release. - Chain D.L.K.

​The film was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the  2012 Sundance Film Festival. 
​
Faced with the delicate balancing act of underscoring extremely serious subject matter in an absurdist context, longtime composing partners Niklas Schak and Tin Soheili – veterans of Danish television documentaries – take an abstract, almost experimental approach, deploying simple, often brief cues that rely more on ambient harmonies than traditional themes and variations. Piano, strings, percussion all braided delicately into cues that suggest uncertainty, instability and, at inopportune times, danger. The lone noteworthy exception: “The Match Works,” a playful homage to traditional Greek Bouzouki music deployed here for the sake of pointed irony.
