KristianK and Day By Day Music Studio: Global Sound

Kristian Kostadinovic, professionally known as KristianK, is a Croatian music producer, audio engineer, and founder of Day By Day Music Studio — an independent platform shaping a modern, global approach to music production, curation, and digital distribution.

With over a decade of experience in music, KristianK’s journey began long before the studio was established. Growing up surrounded by live music, heavily influenced by his father, a drummer, he developed an early connection to rhythm and instrumentation. His foundation in rock and jazz later evolved into a deep passion for hip-hop, soul, and R&B, inspired by artists such as J Dilla, Madlib, MF DOOM, A Tribe Called Quest, and Busta Rhymes.

However, his real entry into the music scene started through platforms like SoundCloud, where he spent years building connections, collaborating with artists, and refining his sound. Being part of the online music community allowed him to work with creatives from different parts of the world, shaping both his style and his understanding of the global music landscape.

KristianK spent nearly a decade in Dublin, Ireland, where he further developed his craft within underground music circles. During this time, he collaborated with local and international artists, performed and curated music in intimate venues, and immersed himself in a culture deeply rooted in jazz, soul, and hip-hop.

After years of experience abroad, he returned to Croatia with a clear vision — to build something of his own.

In November 2024, he founded Day By Day Music Studio in Osijek, creating a space dedicated to music production, mixing and mastering, artist development, and global collaboration. The studio quickly became a hub for both local and international artists, combining technical precision with creative direction.

Today, his work extends far beyond the studio walls.

Through his YouTube platform, Day By Day Music Studio, KristianK curates and produces immersive music experiences, currently focusing on Brazilian jazz and bossa nova-inspired mixes. These projects reflect a more atmospheric and global sound, blending nostalgia with modern production. His curated mixes are also featured on 99.7 DA HEAT Miami, where he contributes as a radio host and curator, sharing music with a worldwide audience.

Alongside this, he continues to work with artists across Europe, the USA, Asia, and South America, offering services ranging from vocal recording and production to mixing, mastering, and licensing. His catalog includes multiple releases distributed globally across major streaming platforms, as well as collaborations with labels such as Cold Current Music and 4U&I Records.

Beyond music production, KristianK is also building a strong digital ecosystem around his brand. His growing YouTube channel is supported by an active Discord community, where artists, producers, and listeners connect, share ideas, and collaborate. Social platforms like Instagram serve as an extension of this creative network, while his website acts as a central hub for his work and services.

At the core of everything is a simple but powerful vision — to build a platform without borders, where music, culture, and community come together.

KristianK represents a new generation of independent creators: combining technical expertise, global influence, and digital strategy to create not just music, but a full creative movement.
