The Austrian newspaper OÖ Nachrichten has published an extensive feature article on Michael J. Keplinger on 28 September 2025, highlighting his journey from a childhood shaped by Kiss and the Beatles to his recent works, mastered at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London.
Journalist Reinhold Gruber traces Keplinger’s musical beginnings, his father’s early influence, and the way a childhood spark grew into an artistic pursuit that now spans both music and film. The article details how Keplinger realized a lifelong dream with the mastering of his song Passing Through at Abbey Road by engineer Alex Wharton, and how this experience later brought him back to London to master his upcoming EP.
“Keplinger, with his career so far, should be a shining example how much can be achieved if you just firmly believe in it.” – Reinhold Gruber
The OÖ Nachrichten piece also looks ahead to Keplinger’s forthcoming EP, mastered once again at Abbey Road. Written and recorded during a challenging personal period, the release represents both artistic achievement and personal triumph.
The full article (in German) can be read on the OÖ Nachrichten website.
