Marcel Alexander Wiebenga Email & Phone Number

Marcel A. Wiebenga (Rotterdam, 1978) made a modest mark in music history as a drummer from the mid-1990s to the late 2000s. He recorded multiple records and embarked on countless tours in Europe, the United States, and Japan with his DC-hardcore-meets-classic-rock band Oil and the Dutch-American Thrash Core group Das Oath.From 2008 to 2018, Marcel worked at Sizzer Amsterdam, where he played a pivotal role as a partner and the company's strategy director and scaled Sizzer to an internationally renowned music-for-advertising agency with offices in Amsterdam and Berlin. During his ten-year tenure, Marcel oversaw over 1000 projects, earned numerous awards, collaborated with revered clients such as Mercedes, Dior, Diesel, and Heineken, and served as a speaker, panelist, and jury member at various music and advertising conferences.In 2021, Marcel and Oil's lead singer and former Sizzer managing director, Nicholas van den Doel, founded Ringo, a B2B music-for-media procurement platform that bridges the information gap between potential buyers and sellers of sync licenses in the advertising space. Funded in 2023, 2024 saw the private beta release of this platform, which provides users with algorithmic sync pricing indication.In addition to his entrepreneurial pursuits, Marcel engages with an audience of about 3500 creatives, founders, and music-industry professionals through his Bi-Weekly-ish newsletter that delves into the realms of music, tech, and culture, and he does extensive kickboxing training (but will never do a match because he's too concerned with his face).
