Swiss electronic music producer & DJ
From synthwave and city pop to early 2000s club sounds.

PKMWT fell in love with electronic music in the mid-1990s through techno, trance, hardcore and the genre collisions of The Prodigy. He took up piano at 25 and went on to write orchestral music using scores. An IT professional by trade, he started making music on a Launchpad with Ableton and joined a local trip-hop covers band. Over four years he developed his production and live performance skills before launching his solo work as PKMWT. PK is his nickname and MWT stands for Music We Trust.
He approaches music as a language with its own grammar. Verses, choruses and bridges give listeners a way into the music, while the choice of chords and musical phrases carries the expression. That pop framework gives him room to move between electronic styles and build a sound of his own.
In 2024 he joined a week-long Orange Machine masterclass in Morocco with Frank (Knarf) from Les Sondiers and guest artists Airwave and Deep Forest. In 2025 he spent two weeks training in mixing and mastering with Leroy Chambers at Studio Shaman in Bordeaux. In 2026 he spent two months working on DJing with coach Lucas Arniac, developing the approach behind his filmed Electro Mix sets.
