Among many things there are at least two that all Hertrich Bros have in common:
a) they all (obviously) have the same parents and
b) they all have the gift to create fabulous music (as you can see if you scroll down this blog)

This post shall be about Johannes & Gabriel again (a.k.a. Unifono / Attune) and their new (dare I say) Electronic Industrial Pop Rock 7-piece all-star band All Blank, who now released their debut album "A Thousand Views", which I was given the honor to master recently...

Definitely check it out on Spotify and help them reach 500k streams - for they'll then consider to release this piece of art on vinyl...

My pals from Code Of The Road released their debut EP "Hypocrisy, Anyhow" (which I mixed and mastered few months ago)!

Please check 'em out on Spotify and give 'em a like if you dig that good ole Rock 'N' Roll...

Oh and by the way: the artwork was painted by Phil a.k.a. Acid Robot from Radio Haze!

Yo, check out my homie TG's latest video to "Suckers & Crooks" (filmed by Schtifilms) and make sure you'll catch Air's SICK drum break at around 1:10min. Damn, I never knew that one can be obsessed with a single HiHat sound...

The song will be on his upcoming (7th) album "Talkin' Shop" (produced @ SlashZeroStudio).

My Ohrange Bros released the 3rd music video off their album "L[i]eben" (produced here at Slash Zero Studio) for the song "Patronus" - shot by up- and coming video dude Tom Eberl!

Today Radio Haze are releasing "The Psychoustic Sessions III" exclusively on 10" eco-colored vinyl with fancy booklet limited to 200 copies...

I produced, recorded, mixed, mastered, played bass, guitar, rhodes, sitar, hurt my fingers, sang, and made strange sounds, and I had fun doing it.
Air played cajon, bongos, some things that made rattling sounds, melodica, synth, sang and layouted Phil's artwork, who also guitared, drank, and sang on this record. Ah yeah, he also played a banana... (have you seen the 'making of' video?)

You should definitely turn on and tune in, because the trilogy is now complete!

This time my path of work has led me to master an EP by the talented Cocon... The song is called "Wien West" and is featured in its original version, but also contains remixes by Unifono (for whom I recently mastered his "Modal" EP) and Loewe (a.k.a. Jakobin).

It is distributed by the French house label Jango Del Mar and if you're open for some non-guitar tunes, you should definitely give that one a listen!

Slash Zero Records have the honor to release the latest MASS album "Still Chained" (which contains 13 re-recordings their classics from 1973 - 1987 plus 2 new songs) on vinyl! As I wrote earlier this year, I recorded parts of this ship, and even got to mix and master it.

You can order your copy at their new Bandcamp Store - but be warned: a band that already sold 200k units before will easily sell out the strictly limited run of 500 double-LPs on 180g red translucent vinyl (with etching on side D) in a nice gatefold pretty fast...

Radio Haze released a new video called "Have Mercy On Me" (directed by the legendary photographer/filmmaker Ludwig Van Borkum) today.

Please watch it, like it, share it, save it to your Spotify playlist, and after that, pre-order your copy of the ultra-limited, eco-colored "The Psychoustic Sessions III" 10' vinyl (which we recorded @ Slash Zero Studio over new year last year) at the Radio Haze Bandcamp store.

One of the most legendary crowdfundings ever made: Stahlhelmverbot's "3. Weltkrieg" is 5 years old today. Around 100 people made this special album possible WITHOUT ANY INTERNET ABUSE! It's still a myth to this day how this band could produce such a masterpiece in such a short amount of time (about 3 days in the studio... songwriting included). This was also the last record released on Hate206045 Records before we went "professurnal" and changed our name to Slash Zero Records.

Get your copy at Discogs or Bandcamp - sorry folks, no streaming here...

The 5th release this year that I was involved in will be that of acoustic singer/songwriter folk/pop trio Kleine Terz, who visited me at Slash Zero Studio in March and recorded their first magnum opus "Großes Album". After some trouble with their distribution partners, the album is now available at their Facebook page, or at your favorite streaming service of choice...

Well, the title says it all... "Momentum", the 3rd album by Radio Haze, is now 5 years old.

Grab the last copies via Bandcamp if you dig 180g colored vinyl...

Friday April 26th, 2019 - after 32 years, the legendary MASS are 'back to the music' with their 9th album "Still Chained".

Founded in 1973, disbanded in 1987, resurrected in 2016 by founding member Günther V. Radny, they re-recorded 13 songs from back in the day plus 2 brand new compositions by the 'new MASS incarnation'. I had the honor to record parts of this ship, and even got to mix and master it.

You can order your copy at their record label "Pride And Joy Music" or head straight to your record store of choice... (or just wait for the vinyl soon to come...)

Johannes Hertrich a.k.a. Unifono - 1 of 4 legendary Hertrich Bros, which also include Fabian Hertrich (Young Fast Running Man) and Gabriel Hertrich (Attune) - released his first album "Modal" (which I mastered recently).

If you're into Downbeat/Trip Hop, you should definitely give this one a listen on Spotify (or your streaming service of choice) and support him at Bandcamp!

The sun is shining, had some Glenallachie jam for breakfast, and my new Steven Wilson - Home Invasion vinyl box arrived - what a great way to start Dynamic Range Day 2019!

Let's produce some good sounding music this year - happy DRD19!

Ah yeah, and please spread the word and join Ian Shepherd's webcast tonight or Lij Shaw's live stream if you wanna know who won this year's DRD Award...

This album should have gotten way more attention: "The Love To End All Love" by Symbiance (director Konstantin Ferstl and cinematographer Stephan Bookas) - produced at the old Slash Zero Studio 5 years ago...

Just look at this awesome music video to "Timeless Wars" and you'll know what I mean... 

Finally my bros from Ohrange teamed up with Schtifilms to shoot 2 nice videos (Diva & L[i]eben) for their latest album "L[i]eben" (which I happened to produce and play bass on)! Check 'em out!

The magnificent TG Copperfield released his 5th solo offering "Magnolia" (which we produced last August in collaboration with legendary engineer Hias Roithmeier), and because more is more, he also released "Common Buzzard Blues" (also produced last year @ Slash Zero Studio) together with his band 3 Dayz Whizkey.

If you want some Rock 'N' Roll, you will definitely find it here -> Spotify (TG) + Spotify (3DW)

Radio Haze's 1st album "Mycelium" has its 10th birthday today... Remember "Blue Yoga"?

Of course the original handmade CD is long sold out, but you can get the remastered CD here or stream it here.

Again it's "Endorsernstag" (which is kind of a wordplay on endorsers' Thursday) and this time the folks at Musik Wein present Michael "Air" Hofmann (which I have the honor of being a brother of) who endorses their Istanbul Mehmet Cymbals. Check their page and Instagram feed for awesome instruments!

T.G. Copperfield did it again - here's the video to "They Put Out The Fire" from his upcoming new album (which I again had the honor to produce) and my good friend Hias earned his first engineering credit for recording the backing vocals on this song!
