Kerim König gained his first stage experiences with bands and ensembles as a drummer, singer and guitarist. He studied "Cultural Studies and Aesthetic Practice" with a focus on music and media at the University of Hildesheim. Already during his studies he composed his first film scores for short and animated films by directors Lothar Herzog and Jan-Peter Meier. To deepen his knowledge he took part in the "Hollywood Music Workshop" under the direction of Conrad Pope in Baden near Vienna. König then moved to Berlin and his first commissions for various television productions followed.

König releases solo albums on the Cologne label Hey!blau Records, which show other facets of his compositions that are independent of images. The albums were produced in collaboration with the Japanese concert pianist Mayuko Miyata, the string orchestra Scoring Berlin and the New Zealand singer Teresa Bergman.

Kerim König lives and works in Berlin.
