BIOGRAPHY

ANT ANTIC is the singer, multi-instrumentalist and producer Tobias Koett. Somewhere between pop and club, his signature sound is reduced and uncompromising, putting essential elements and ideas into focus by getting rid of everything else. It wraps melancholy mood in urgent songs full of hope and cruises among ambient, electronic and contemporary R&B sounds – carried by a distinctive voice that will stay with you forever. 

2019 saw the release of the EP “Whoop!”, four songs influenced by Tobias’ surroundings and musical influences in Berlin. Outside of conventional pop song structures, the release blends stripped-down four to the floor aesthetics with an analog approach to sound design. The never-ending flood of information is one of the central themes of his upcoming second album “Good Vids, Vile Times”, set for release in autumn 2020.
