Walther Rathenau once said: “Berlin is the parvenu amongst capitals and the capital of parvenus!”
In the 1920s, Berlin was one of the cultural centers of Europe—and as a result, also attracted people trying desperately to be something they were not. Not much has changed it seems. Many people here are very “creative” or very “important,” and they really need to show it.
I am usually too busy loving and living my city to indulge in that kind of behavior. I’d like to show you a side of Berlin where trendiness and glamor are secondary but true style and sense of timeless values prevail.

Milan-born and raised Xaver Naudascher has lived in several large cities, having received his degree in Audio Engineering in Sydney, but when he arrived to Berlin in 1994 he instinctively knew: this is it! Since then he has worked here in the music business, covering many aspects of it from the creators side.
Naudascher has been teaboy, mixer, producer and artist on many productions, putting music on records, films and commercials. He currently runs his own label Supersoul Recordings (latest release being a compilation of the first two years of the labels output, a collaboration with New York’s DFA Records and Cologne’s techno royalty, Kompakt). The music producer’s company Supersoul Productions provides music for films, advertising and art installations, including clients like Adidas, Stella McCartney, Al Jazeera, Tom Tykwer, Wolfgang Becker and Robert Wilson.
Naudascher received his first platinum record for the production efforts on Die Fantastischen Vier’s album Fornika in 2007.
