Globally renowned for his stamp on the electronic music scene, Tim Engelhardt has built a vast discography of chart-topping club records over the past decade. Now, the German producer steps into a new era of mastery with his very own music label, LIFEFORMS.

Partnering with US-based French scientist and producer Dr. Nicolas Pinto, LIFEFORMS was formed to empower artists through technology — bringing the two forces’ expertise together. Championing creative freedom while teaching their artists modern tools to help achieve their visions, the label encourages limitless possibilities.

To cut the ribbon and launch the label, Engelhardt has released “Wide Awake”, an indie-dance single with a club version pairing. Featuring German singer-songwriter Jyll, the project highlights the magic that can happen when you combine true artistry with technical excellence — and sets the scene for the imprint’s experimental and forward-thinking approach.

“Our vision for LIFEFORMS extends beyond a label; it’s a dynamic platform. It’s a place to unveil new music, foster collaboration, nurture emerging artists and empower them to explore the possibilities of tech-driven creativity,” Engelhardt shares. “Our excitement stems from the opportunity to spotlight some of the most talented artists within our scene, while also embarking on a journey to discover new and captivating voices.” 

Dr. Nicolas Pinto adds, “Music has always been a fascinating universal language to my soul that somehow effortlessly transcends cultural boundaries, and I believe technology to be its modern instrument… Our mission is clear: to provide artists with a playground for their imagination, where they can not only craft their music but also learn to wield the tools that empower their autonomy. Music takes the lead, but we’ll tastefully infuse it with the deep tech expertise that we bring to the table.”
