About

I'm Nikolaos Kanelakis, a freelance Sound Designer and Music Producer based in Düsseldorf. I make sound for the people who tell stories — directors, animators, agencies, podcasters, content creators, musicians.

I'm an award-winning composer specializing in electroacoustic and acousmatic music. My practice treats sound as raw musical material — shaping textures, movement, and sonic detail into work that carries both conceptual depth and emotional impact. That approach brings a distinctive, experimental edge to commercial and artistic projects alike.

Alongside the compositional work, I've built extensive experience in audio post-production across film, television, audiobooks, podcasts, and YouTube. The result is a workflow that adapts fast across formats while keeping precision and creative intent intact.

Every sound is unique, made once to last forever. If you have a unique project that needs unique sounds, I'd love to hear about it.
