🎤 Guest: Mitch Dörfler
Producer. Mixing engineer. Industry heavyweight.

Mitch Dörfler has been one of the defining figures in the German-speaking music and audio industry for over two decades. He’s known for his work as a producer, mixer, and engineer for major national and international artists such as Die Fantastischen Vier, DMX, Vanilla Ice, Thomas D, Herbert Grönemeyer, and many others. His productions have received multiple gold and platinum awards, as well as major honors like the ECHO and the Amadeus Award.
