Nhoah (born 1961 in Berlin, unique spelling NHOAH [1] otherwise known as Nhoah Hoena[2]) is a Berlin based music producer, composer and artist.

Life and career

In 1980, Nhoah played the drums in various local bands in Berlin (i.a. Aeroflot, Komeda Artist)[3][4][5][6]and worked alongside numerous international artists who resided in the city (e.g., Jayne County, Romy Haag,[7] Hot Java).

Around this time electronic means of music production gained momentum and computationally derived sounds began to influence his work significantly. He continued to compose, produce and engineer musical content (e.g., for Larry Steinbacheck/Bronski Beat, Gareth Jones, Rio Reiser, Marianne Rosenberg)[8][9] working mainly in Hansa Tonstudio and Tritonus Studio Berlin.[3].

A unique auditory landscape created from rhythm machines, samplers and sequential processing tools as well as classical acoustic instrumental applications began to emerge and form the core of the dissonant character of his music.

Several contract works followed (i.a. The Pogues, Peacock Palace, David Hasselhoff)[10][11][12].

In 1998, he founded the record label and artist management company R.O.T. to support and mentor the development of artistic talent from which multiple successful projects originated (e.g., MIA., The Aim of Design Is to Define Space, DaKee, Flexevil).[10][13][14]

In 2011, the first album of his solo project Tangowerk by Nhoah was released after five years of intensive development. It mirrors musical influences from the notorious electro clubs of Berlin and tango orchestra from Buenos Aires. Many of the contributors are internationally successful and well-known artists such as Adriana Varela,[15] Louie Austen, Berlin Comedian Harmonists, Mieze Katz (von MIA.), Walter "Chino" Laborde, Ina Viola or Lulu Schmidt. The project also features elaborative visuals (video: Carola Schmidt), a complimentary movie and a stage play are in the making [2].

Nhoah received various gold and platinum record awards. The album Tangowerk was nominated for the German Record Critics' Award Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik[16].

Together with Carola Schmidt, he received the short film newcomer award of the Diagonale (Filmfestival) 2008 in Austria, for the short film: "Wir bitten Dich, verführe uns!"[17].

Under the pseudonym H.Flug, he applies himself as a photographer, painter and writer, exhibiting his works in renowned galleries and exhibitions and frequently collaborating with visual and performance artists (i.a. Eric Tannhäuser, Carola Schmidt)[1][10][18].
