Heiko Michael Maile was born in Bankstown, Sydney, New
South Wales, Australia and grew up in Bietigheim-Bissingen. His first musical
steps were at a young age when he started taking classical guitar lessons. His
career as a musician and producer began in 1983, as one of the founding members
of the synthpop band Camouflage. In the 1990s, Maile founded with Marcus Meyn
the music publishing company, Areu Areu in 1990. During this time, he met the
music producer Mathias Willvonseder. They formed a long-term partnership,
resulting in numerous commercials and films, which were often awarded prizes at
festivals. He is also a member of the Composers' Collective Gutleut, where he
met composer and arranger Torsten Kamps, and the two began working closely
together. During this time, Maile started to develop a desire to compose for
films and approached producer Christian Becker.
He began composing for films in 2006 when he did the
music for a short film called “Basti”. Maile was then hired by Becker to create
the score as well as a few original songs for the teen-thriller “The Wave”. The
film was a hit among both critics and viewers. He also made music for the
popular film “Vorstadtkrokodile”, and its sequels “Crocodiles Strikes Back” and
“Crocodiles: All for One”.
Maile went on to have a good working relationship with
Christian Becker and The Wave director Dennis Gansel and composed the music for
“We Are the Night”, which was nominated for German Film Prize (the German
Oscars) in 2011.
Heiko Maile now lives and works in Stuttgart.
