Clemens Wijers is a Dutch composer and musician working on music for artists, film and more.

He began playing keyboard at a young age, later studying music at a local art school for eight years. During his teens, he accompanied choirs on keyboard in during performances. In secondary school, he grew interested in symphonic and metal music, blending the two in a band. He spent a year refining his skills at the Tilburg Conservatory while composing music. After several band projects, he co-founded the symphonic metal band Carach Angren, where he writes much of the music, drawing on classical influences. With six albums and over 500 international shows, the band has earned critical acclaim and a devoted global following.

Highlights:

In 2014 Clemens was invited to work for the band Lindemann, a new collaboration between Till Lindemann (Rammstein) and Peter Tägtgren (Pain/Hypocrisy). Clemens composed two songs for the band: “That’s My Heart” and “Wer Weiss Das Schon”. These songs plus his orchestral arrangements throughout the other tracks can heard on both albums released by the band (Skills in Pills 2015, F&M 2019). In 2023 Clemens composed and produced the track “Alles für die Kinder” for Till Lindemann’s solo album “Zunge”.

Clemens has scored several short films in a variety of genres from Horror to Animation and Drama.

Carach Angren’s new album “Franckensteina Strataemontanus” has been released in June of 2020 and got raving response from both press and fans. The album was mixed by Robert Carranza (LA) and the title track was accompanied by a dramatically dark video directed by Zoran Bihac.

Clemens has also released several solo works consisting of hybrid-orchestral & industrial music. He signed a publishing deal with SuperPitch (FR) and many of these tracks are currently synched to commercials and films worldwide.
