repeat redaktion was established as a one woman music copywriting agency in Berlin in November 2019 to create a community of music lovers and to support fellow independent creatives from music and arts with culturally-savvy copywriting and translations.
After five years of independent music journalism, repeat magazine has grown into the music copywriting agency repeat redaktion, based in the international center of independent music culture in Berlin Neukölln.
repeat redaktion was founded by Susanne Heßmann, Master of Arts in Cultural Studies, independent music journalist and author in visual arts studies and feminism[1], DJ, part of the Music Women Germany network and a classically trained pianist and musician. In 2019 she completed the professional business foundation program with a certification by the start-up center Garage Berlin.
