MKSM's Chosen Family.
Pop Artist MKSM Rings in the Holiday Season with New Song 'Chosen Family'
MKSM (Maksim Reimer) the Russian born German Singer/Songwriter and violinist has followed up recent single 'Tipsy in Love' with a new track, an original holiday song 'Chosen Family'. In MKSM's words:
"CHOSEN FAMILY draws attention to people who are still socially discriminated against for their sexual identity, and sometimes even are rejected by their own families. This Christmas song is the perfect soundtrack for you and your loved ones - and you get to choose your loved ones - YOUR CHOSEN FAMILY"

MKSM‘s success was crowned last year with the “Song of the Year“ LGBTQ music award for his Pride anthem “Original Self - Enough is Enough.“ His talent as a singer, songwriter and violinist was also recognized by Wolfgang Stach and Franz-Wieland Filtz, hit producers of German artists such as Jupiter Jones, Bosse and Tim Kamrad. Together, they produced the recent MKSM song “Tipsy in Love“ in Cologne‘s legendary Maarwegstudio2.
Born in Kazan (Russia), he and his family first moved to Ukraine, then to Germany. The singer has been LABEL STARGAZE tunes „Tipsy in Love“ „Tipsy in Love“ - Acoustic Version RELEASE living in London for two years now, working on his new material, but also teaching his own songwriting workshops, supporting singers and artists of all ages.
Why he decided to call himself MKSM is explained easily: During an impromptu performance in a London club his name “lost power“: “I had set up small LED letters that said ‘MAKSIM‘. Suddenly, the batteries of the ‘A‘ were empty. I thought it was funny, and then turned off the ’I’ as well,“ he recalls. What remained was “MKSM“: “I thought the four letters looked good and also quite cool.“ Now, MKSM stands for his first name Maksim.
With the new name, MKSM has started his new musical era: MKSM is simply himself, more so than ever before. “Over the past few years I have had the opportunity to work with a number of very creative people. Even though I‘ve always known where to go, I can say today that I‘m on a good new path where a lot of great things will happen.“
At the moment, the singer is in the recording studio regularly, working with the producing team on his new EP: “After the release of the first single, other songs of the EP will be released within short intervals,“ MKSM promises. As with all the art out there, the journey is the reward. Music is something that you create and it changes over and over again.
