The Studio

Welcome to "THE STUDIO", the place where all the magic happens. It's more than a working place to produce music. It's a place to become creative, get inspired, a place where encouragement and friendship is central.
A place to dream and unfold new ideas. The Studio ain't big - but the sound is!

Hey, I'm NIK

... and I am the musician and producer behind.

I was literally "born" into a music studio. Growing up in a musical family, music production got hold of me, and it didn't let go. Why should I?
It's the coolest thing on earth!

Meanwhile I'm married to my lovely wife Jenny and self employed as a music producer!

THe workstation

My studio is set up for modern music production. Which means, that I'm working on a digital workstation combined with selected analog components. The right combination of a digital workstation paired with the right analog hardware makes my studio not only a flexible, creative and fast rocking place to work, but also provides a high quality standard.

As you may guess, Matthias Heimlicher is my father ....that's why I grew up in a musical family!

I learned the craft and lots of my production skills from my dad. Even though I now have my own studio, it is a great honor for me to still be learning and working alongside my dad.

He really is a true role model for me as a father, a human being and as a talented encouraging musician & producer!

Working with all kinds of people is an incredibly enriching and encouraging experience. Especially when they become friends. Making music therefore is not a job in the first place. It's a passion and it's all about feeling & sharing the groove and simply have a great time with whom ever you make music.
