Producer, DJ, & Entrepreneur: Rampa – Berlin, Building, & Loving the Process More Than the Product
The Gstaad Guy Podcast
153,980 views
The Gstaad Guy sits down with Rampa, producer, DJ and entrepreneur, to explore what happens when the thing you made becomes bigger than you are. Sixteen years on from a shared basement studio and a dream of never going back to the car wash, Rampa reflects on the strange arithmetic of scale: waking up one day with the tickets sold and the visibility earned and no real idea how to hold it, and discovering that most of the people far more famous than him feel exactly the same way.
The conversation gets into what skate culture taught him about belonging before the internet made it easy, why he agrees with a fair amount of his own criticism, and the economics nobody explains about who actually pays for a night in the jungle. He is candid about the two days a year Keinemusik spend with a coach protecting a friendship the scale had drowned out, about the freedom of an unfinished song and the worry that starts on release day, and about the blind date he was dragged along to that turned into TEILE, the speaker and carpentry company he now runs with twenty two people. Increasingly drawn away from the stage and towards engineering, workshops and the young builders he sees there, it is a conversation about creating rather than having created, and why he would not tell his younger self a thing.
Filmed at the Keinemusik Studio in Berlin.
