Maresch Bär joined RCKT. as an intern in May while studying Public Relations in Hanover. He is passionate about startups and communications, so moving to Berlin was only a matter of time. Maresch is a real vinyl-or-die music nerd and professional grammarian. Deal with it.

1) Jamie xx In Colour LP

Jamie xx is one of my favorite artists right now and his solo debut “In Colour” will definitely make it into my top 10 albums of the year. As you might expect, I don’t actually bring my record player to the office because it’s not very handy, but listening to good music is essential.

2) Coffee, Black

I can quit drinking coffee whenever I want to. Nuff said.

3) Doodle Pad

I am obviously a talented artist. This little cowboy is only one of the three drawings I have brought to perfection over the years. He has even got a lasso and a revolver saying “Peng!”. Quite impressive right?

4) Ricola Cough Drops

Who invented it? You probably have to be from a German-speaking country to know this catchphrase, but still it’s always wise to have some cough candy with you. Ricola gives you the right Chrüterchraft to deal with any challenge.

5) MacBook Pro

I can’t live without you. Only my MacBook Pro has the power to deal with Skype, Photoshop, Keynote, Spotify and 234 browser tabs at the same time.

6) RCKT.-branded NTBK

To be honest, I don’t actually write stuff in my notebook, but it makes me look kind of smart. Very old school. Very sophisticated.

7) Pens

Since I can remember, pens magically attract me. It’s not that I’m kleptomaniac, but somehow they are getting more and more—one of the last big secrets on earth.
