Where Independent Music Finds Its Voice

Vertel eens iets over jezelf, wie ben je en waar kom je vandaan?

My name is Robert Königshofer that makes music under the artist name Roby Koenigs. I am a music producer, beatmaker and former DJ based in Zagreb, Croatia.

Hoe is je passie voor muziek ontstaan? Wie zijn je idolen?

My music journey started way back in 2015. When I was listening to EDM. One day I listened to Avicii – The Nights and I was so impressed with his production. I was really intrigued to remake his track, and after lots of failures I finally managed to copy his sound. And then I started working on my own music. My biggest idol besides Avicii is also Lil Peep since I really enjoy the emo trap music scene. Lil Peep talked about real life problems that every single person can relate to. His messages through his songs were simply beautiful.

Wat voor soort muziek maak je?

I used to do EDM way back. Every single genre from Tropical House to Dubstep. But now I’m based in the Emo trap community. But I might do an EDM return song in tge near future ;)

Wat is voor jou het belangrijkste nummer? Welke boodschap wil je overbrengen aan de luisteraar?

Actually the song of mine that I personally find most important is called White Paws. That is a song that I made after my dog companion sadly died after a long struggle with disease. But for my listeners. I like making beats and sometimes I sing too, so every single song of mine has some kind of meaning. Also real life problems. Most of them are about heartbreak, emptiness and depression. My goal is to make someones life better through music. Not everything in life is so dark, there is always sunshine somewhere. :)

Waarom zou een luisteraar die jou niet kent naar je muziek luisteren?

I try to express my feelings through music. And I am a really empathetic person, so I can easily understand everyone’s problems. I want to heal those problems with my music.

Wat zijn je toekomstige projecten? Waar zie je jezelf over 5 jaar?

Currently I’m just making some beats, but who knows.. We will see, it is really hard so succeed in the music industry. But I’ll never quit, even if it just stays as a hobby. I want to leave something behind me.

Vertel onze lezers een grappige gebeurtenis in je carrière als artiest.

Well I was playing a party on a New Years eve couple of years ago when I was a DJ and all of the sudden my laptop broke out of power and there was dead silence for a couple of minutes.. Kinda awkward, but hey everyone enjoyed it haha!
