Composer, Songwriter & Producer

My creative passion is to always follow the balance between wild inspiration and controlled professionally. No matter if I co-create with singers in my studio, write music for films or compose piano pieces.

Are you interested in co-creating with me? I'd love to hear about it!

Tell me about it!Discography

Artist projects

Written & produced out of love for the undiscovered

Listen to LÜX

LÜX

Isobel Afonte & Simon Anke – creating alternative pop since 2022

LÜX is a wild dance between exuberant alternative pop arrangements and fragile minimalism. LÜX sounds as if Tori Amos and Peter Gabriel had met for a songwriting session – after listening to Björk all evening.

The EP “UNCOVER” (2023) and its release show at Kulturbrauerei Berlin were followed in 2026 by the debut album “TO THE WILD”, celebrated with a release concert at Luftschloss on Tempelhofer Feld. LÜX performed live in the RadioEins studio and has several songs on air at MDR Kultur and WDR.

Urban Swing – co-written and produced by Simon Anke since 2023

Imagine Sinatra were gay and living in Berlin today. Björn Bergmann sings about his last night out, a ride on Deutsche Bahn or the morning after Berghain.

His “Urban Swing”: double bass, wild piano and ballroom energy meet the unvarnished honesty of big-city life. To the German habit of endless worrying he answers with a carefree “So what?”. The message of his album “First World Problems” (2026): when the world ends, coffee first!
