SAM KOCH (KOCH)

22 YEAR OLD DJ / PRODUCER

Sam’s journey to becoming a full time producer and music artist have skyrocketed within the past year. At only 22, Koch has already been able to perform at many of the top NYC clubs, including the Highline Ballroom, Hotel 50 Bowery, and Pier 83 to name a few. Between working with various different artists, releasing new singles, and dropping smash hits on all of the various different streaming platforms, he’s beginning to set a name for himself in the music world.

Koch’s ability to not only kill his streaming platforms, but to keep up with his fans through various social media outlets, like tiktok, instagram, etc. are only pushing him further up the totem pole. He continues to document his late night beat spinning, his various collaborations, and drops a weekly “KOCH’S LIST” on his instagram stories. His commitment to putting out content and continuously making music, shows his dedication to the game. KOCH is dropping hit beats left and right, and it seems to be working for him. You can check out all of his songs on platforms like Apple Music, Spotify, Youtube, and Soundcloud under the name KOCH. More to come for Sam, and more on his journey to success in Issue I 2020!

What is the goal for your business/brand and where could you see it being in 5 years from now?

“My goal is to touch and inspire people through my music. With everything going on in the world today, it is amazing how music brings people together and allows them to forget about their problems and to just feel free. In 5 years, a big goal of mine is to be one of the biggest producers in the music industry.”
