It is our diversity that makes the magic happen.
Our team is international, multi-cultural. We pair a strong music background with professional experience across a variety of disciplines: From consulting and advertising, photography and performing arts, social sciences and languages to psychology and customer experience. Everyone at amp is a superhero with their unique superpowers.
Our strength lies in the diversity of our background and we are united by the passion for sound and music. Everyone on the amp team contributes with their individual angle on innovation, continuously challenging the status quo and shaping the future of sonic in its most significant decade.
Together, we are the most passionate and competent team you will ever trust your Sonic Identity with.
Our Credo
1
ALWAYS BE HUMAN AND EMBRACE DIVERSITY.
We are a team of experts, but first of all we are all human beings. amp is a family with a common goal – learn and grow together. While we have our defined roles, we always strive to embrace each other’s unique talent and mindset. Diverse teams, as long as they are well managed, are more creative and achieve goals more efficiently – music is a universal language: our cultures and our diversity contribute positively to our creative Babylon.

INVENT THE
UNEXPECTED
OBVIOUS.
We believe in the power of the Unexpected Obvious: It’s simple and surprising at the same time, it creates disruption without demolition. Like Leonardo Da Vinci, we learn from multiple disciplines and the world around us and infuse this knowledge in our primary field of focus: music and sound. We yearn to create with unquenchable curiosity and feverishly inventive imagination – great ideas are not complex, we just need to give them the space to be heard.
3
Break with the mundane and pursue the extraordinary.
We are the inventors of the Sonic DNA, the audible expression of a brand.
Challenging the norm of jingles and singular melodies, it is our quest to make brands heard authentically. We set the bar high on quality, working with real artists from around the globe instead of composers on commission. We believe in facts and research and empowering our clients to make a lasting impact with the customers by leveraging the unique power of sound, today and for decades to come.
