Biography
Discography
Maciej’s journey to explore his musical talent began at the age of eleven, drawing inspiration from the work of Jean Michael Jarre, Oldfied, and Vangelis, as well as many others. Empowered by the gift of strong support from family and friends, coupled with his own drive and confidence, he was able to quickly immerse himself in the pursuit of his dream, diving headfirst into an industry known to crush all but the greatest passion. In the 1990s, working alongside fellow producer Danny Mazor, Maciej put his skills to the test, successfully co-writing and co-producing “Two Hearts”, a project that eventually evolved into a duo known as Dreamscape. The opportunities afforded by this project helped Maciej to develop cutting-edge skills in electronic music and its production.
In 1998, Maciej Kaniewski and a colleague, Ared Arzumanian, worked together on various studio projects. Their artistic chemistry and successful collaboration motivated them to form a partnership, which would eventually become known as the “Magik Brothers”.
Under the Magik Brothers name, Maciej and Ared have tackled numerous projects in Canada and around the world, working with artists including Unique, Freda, V.I.P., Jaade, Captain GQ, Paul London V.I.P. and Lana. Magik Brothers experienced major success in Canada with several chart-topping songs, like “Just My Nature” (V.I.P.) and “Zodiac” (Magik Brothers). Their collaborative production effort also spawned several fascinating remixes.
Maciej Kaniewski’s work with Magik Brothers was in many ways the realization of his childhood dream. Their music ability and unique song writing talent were essential elements in the sound of Magik Brothers, helping to drive its success during the late 1990s and early 2000s. This success was never more evident than at the release of their debut hit singles “Sun” and “Zodiac,” and the overwhelming public response (sang by Eilona Skvirsky Vocalist/Writer with Magik Brothers) . Released initially under BMG Poland, then re-released under Universal Canada, the singles climbed the charts to their eventual place within the top 20 in Poland. The music created a stir amongst top North American DJs and the songs quickly worked their way onto the radio and into the rotation at popular night clubs.#3B414C

Their hard-earned success with their debut album landed the Magik Brothers several opportunities to remix such artists as Gloria Gaynor, DMX, Amarie, Nicci Gilbert, and even allowed them the chance to remix Shawn Desman’s hit single “Get Ready”.
