Having enjoyed a musical education at a young age, Hans' first professional music experience was in the eighties with the band "Elisa Waut", together with his sister. At the same time, a passion for film took him to film school, where he discovered that the ideal would be combining the two, film and music.

Following the path of young directors, this lead to scoring for commercials and short movies. In 1999, Hans, together with two partners founded Music And SoundDesign sac , MASDA.
