Hey, I’m Finch.

​

27 years old, blood type O, Slovak Citizen and 1.72m Tall.

​

I’m a music producer, songwriter, mixing engineer, DJ, and playlist curator who helps independent musicians build careers that actually last.

​

But it wasn’t always like this.

​

How I got here

​

When I was 12, I downloaded a cracked version of FL Studio and fell in love with music production. I spent years creating songs, dreaming about performing at Tomorrowland, and believing that if I just made good music, people would listen.

​

Spoiler: they didn’t.

​

At 19, I released my first single with a zero budget. I posted it on Facebook and YouTube, hoping it would take off. It didn’t. No streams. No views. No one cared.

​

I tried again. And again. Same result.

​

I realized the hard truth - music alone wasn’t enough. If I didn’t learn marketing, I was doomed.

​

So I burned out. Got depressed. Questioned if music was even worth it.

​

Eventually, I decided to learn everything I could about marketing. I got a degree in communication and business, worked at a market research company (hated it), and then joined a music marketing company where I finally learned how to run ads, grow social media, and actually promote music.

​

That’s when things started to click.

​

I released music again, but this time with a real strategy. I ran Meta ads, built playlists, and saw tens of thousands of streams. I helped other artists do the same - one artist got 100k streams in 20 days, another built a playlist that generates over $4,000 a month.

​

And somewhere along the way, I realized something: I got more satisfaction helping other musicians than promoting my own music.

​

So that’s what I do now.

​

What I do today

​

I’ve reviewed over 25,000 songs for my playlists (I only approve about 20% of them). I’ve worked with 250+ musicians through my courses and programs. I’ve helped 2,500+ artists grow through my playlists and services.

​

I teach musicians how to:

→ Release music that actually gets heard

→ Build playlists that generate streams and income

→ Create sustainable careers without burning out

→ Get honest feedback before wasting money on promotion

​

​

I don’t sell shortcuts. I don’t promise overnight success. And I’ll never tell you to buy fake streams or followers.

​

I’ve been the struggling musician who spent weeks on a song only to have no one listen. I’ve made every mistake you can make - from getting scammed by fake playlists to running ads that didn’t work.

​

Everything I teach comes from real experience, not theory. If I recommend something, it’s because I’ve done it myself or seen it work for my students.

​

I’m not here to sell you on hype. I’m here to help you build something real.

​

​

A few things about me

​

→ I don’t think I’m talented enough to “make it” as a musician - but I know I’m good enough to help others do it

→ I’ve been posting content consistently for 3 years without a break, because I use the Seasons Strategy to avoid burnout

→ I care way too much about helping people, probably because I can’t stand seeing others suffer the way I did

​

If you’re tired of tutorials that don’t work, gurus who overpromise, and promotion that wastes your money - you’re in the right place.

​

Let’s make your music career happen 🙌
