Meet the Team

Frank de Jong Frank de Jong, 20
The Netherlands
Engineer

First and foremost I’m an audio engineer. I’m a bit of an all rounder, and do not specialize in anything specific just yet. Right now I want to be involved in every single aspect of music and audio; from recording engineering to live engineering.  I also like music programming- anything from triggering failed drum takes to programming an entire string section.

I write and produce music- I’m interested in making all kinds of glitchy breakbeat genres as well as writing orchestral works in MIDI.


Anya Graham Anya Graham, 19
The UK
Coordinator

I play the piano and enjoy playing around with keyboards a lot: my favourite possession is my Korg Triton Extreme. I listen to all kinds of music, and worked as a live engineer and a mobile DJ before attending SAE. I have also run my own disco company and organized events for charity, both of which were a lot of fun.

I also enjoy kitesports (like kitesurfing), cooking and exploring new places.

I play the guitar and the flute, and have done some singing in the past. Some of my favorite bands are: Led Zeppelin, The Who, Hendrix, Pain of Salvation, Opeth, Turin Brakes, Ray LaMontagne, Zero 7, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains.

I also like playing volleyball (I’ve been playing for 11 years) and making good food.


Bartosz Sztandar Bartosz Sztandar, 27
Poland
Engineer

I’m an electronic genre breaking sonic madness lover, consequently ignoring doctor’s advice to get a life outside Logic Pro 8. I program music, work in film set engineering and post production. I’m also a fan of Ableton Live, innovations in music technology, synthesis, modular DSP and large format mixing consoles.


Matthijs Kleywegt Matthijs Kleywegt, 25
The Netherlands
Engineer

I studied literature and history before attending SAE. I breathe music. Make music. Collect music. All sorts of different music.

I’m looking forward to a very creative summer in the Rooms of Red Bull!


Andri Hugo Runólfsson Andri Hugo Runolfsson, 30
Iceland
Coordinator

In music I like rock, funk, classic rock and folk mostly, but my interests aren’t really confined to any certain genres. Good music is just good music, wherever it comes from.

In the past, before I started my audio studies, I studied electronics, computer science, sociology, multimedia and web design.

Apart from music, my hobbies and interests include movies, playing guitar, computers and gadgets, football, graphic design, sound engineering and amateur photography.

I’m both a studio and a live engineer, who also plays producer from time to time. Besides audio engineering I play bass in a band and I work as a volunteer for a local radio station near to where I live.
