I would also argue that criterion 5 is met by his release of three works on Planet Mu. My vote is therefore Keep, although I won't object if another consensus is drawn (I'm relatively new to Wikipedia after all). BriefAeon (talk) 09:43, 29 January 2018 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * As the author of this article, I admit that I didn't thoroughly consider his notability (I supposed it was notable simply because German, Russian, etc. wiki pages about him also exist and have more links). Although there are few reliable sources, here's what I found which could meet criterion 1 of WP:MUSICBIO:
 * https://www.concertzender.nl/kettel-space-exposure/ (Dutch; a national radio station where Kettel performed an hour long live show, perhaps meeting criterion 12)
 * http://volterock.blogspot.be/2014/06/interview-kettel-reimer-h-eising.html (Interview)
 * http://www.conceptmusic.ru/interviews/10 (Russian; interview)
 * https://www.kettelmusic.com/videos/ (Composition work for advertisements, perhaps meeting criterion 10)
 * http://igloomag.com/reviews/kettel-secede-when-can-sending-orbs (Magazine)
