From Garage Doors to Studio Floors: My Unconventional Journey

In 2011, everything changed. The turbulent echoes of a family fight left me with a heart full of fear and a mind buzzing with uncertainty about the future. It was in the midst of that chaos that I made a choice—to reinvent myself and chase a dream that had been quietly burning inside me. My name is Ethan Kunis, and my journey from troubled beginnings to becoming a music producer is one that defies expectations.

A New Beginning in the USA

I arrived in the United States seeking refuge, hope, and the promise of a better life. With nothing but determination and the support of someone whose kindness helped me secure my legal footing, I began to build a new life from scratch. Every challenge, every setback became a stepping stone toward something greater—an opportunity to redefine who I was and what I was capable of achieving.

Garage Door Repair: The Unexpected Launchpad

While many might have seen garage door repair as just another service, I recognized it as a powerful tool—a means to fund my passion for music. Founding EMA Garage Door Solutions in Cincinnati was more than just starting a business; it was a calculated move to lay the financial foundation for my dream. As the company grew, moving from Cincinnati to Cleveland and finally finding a home in Warren, MI, I learned invaluable lessons in perseverance, hard work, and the art of turning adversity into opportunity.

Building My Studio, Building My Future

Every time I fixed a garage door, I wasn't just earning money—I was one step closer to the studio I always envisioned. The steady income allowed me to invest in high-quality equipment and eventually transform a modest space into a creative haven where music came alive. That studio became my sanctuary, a place where I could blend the sounds of my past with the beats of my future, creating tracks that resonate with raw emotion and authentic experience.

The Dual Life of a Music Producer and Entrepreneur

Balancing a hands-on business with the delicate art of music production isn’t easy, but it’s a balance I cherish. My work in garage door repair isn't just about making ends meet; it's a testament to the fact that unconventional paths can lead to extraordinary destinations. Every repair job completed and every business challenge overcome fuels my passion for producing music that tells my story—the story of a dreamer who never let his circumstances define him.

The Soundtrack of Resilience

Music has always been my way of expressing the complexities of life—from the pain of family strife and personal loss to the joy of new beginnings and unexpected love. My tracks mirror the highs and lows of my journey, blending soulful melodies with beats that speak of resilience. Every note is a reminder that no matter where you come from, your dreams are valid and within reach.

Embracing the Future

Today, I continue to push forward—both as a dedicated business owner and a passionate music producer. The studio I built from the ground up stands as a beacon of what’s possible when you blend determination with creativity. My story is a constant reminder that sometimes, the most unlikely ventures (like garage door repair) can be the very stepping stones to achieving a lifelong dream.

As I look toward the future, I remain inspired by the thought that every door I repair and every track I produce is part of a larger narrative—a narrative of hope, transformation, and the relentless pursuit of a dream.

In case you had any doubts about how much of a professional I am. Yes, that is my microphone attached to a selfie stick and tied to my tripod with elastic cord. No, I am not going to fix it. 😂😂😂 - #makeitwork #dontjudgeme #crafty #camerasetup #diystudio #kandi #kanditutorial #kandikid https://www.instagram.com/p/B-CjZbHg6zZ/?igshid=1yvjvdadthq0

You may say this track is so cheesy but it caught my attention all the time. It´s similar to Joy Divisons anthem “love will tear us apart”. It´s a super track, but why? Good tracks laying around like sand on the sahara, only a few made it to the top. I guess it marks an era and/ or the zeitgeist of an specific time. Saties piece with its catchy melody and repetitive patterns opened the door for minimal and ambient music. No wonder that it is still relevant in these days. . . .
