The fifth 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...

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...)

Friday last week, 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...

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 releases his 5th solo offering "Magnolia" (which we produced last August in collaboration with legendary engineer Hias Roithmeier) today, and because more is more, he also releases "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)

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!

The year 2018 has passed - 2019 is still fresh - and as a music-lover myself I compiled a Spotify Playlist for music-enthusiasts and vinyl-nerds alike. If you are, like me, constantly hunting for new music, check out my TOP5 ALBUMS OF 2018 and hopefully you get inspired... Happy New Year!!!

Today my bros of Ohrange are releasing their 4th full length album entitled "L[i]eben" - again I had the honor to produce and play bass on that one... So take a listen on Spotify or get your copy at Bandcamp if you love life or live love...

At the end of the "We All Climb Our Mountains" Radio Haze Tour 2018 Benedikt Raiser shot some nice photos. Among those were some cool ones sporting my new bass strap, which led to this new endorsement, so here I am showing off my new NEO801 - Thanks to Musik Wein and Steph Guitar Straps!

On Friday Nov 9th, the Thrash Metal chapel GumoManiacs released "Priest Of Lucifer X" - a 10th anniversary remake of their classic debut album (which I had the honor to produce and play bass on and Air did the drumming) - via Slash Zero Records. You should definitely check that one out if you already liked the original (or if you haven't heard the original at all), as this is what the album should have sounded like in the first place (but we haven't had the money and technical/musical knowledge back then)...

Today the legendary Young Fast Running Man releases his 2nd album "Young Bird" (which I had the honor to produce, and together with my bro Air contributed lots of instruments on that one) via Slash Zero Records - you should definitely check it out on Spotify or Bandcamp or even visit the release party tomorrow at Import/Export Munich!

And because that's not enough, another record's coming out this day: Old School Punks Grape celebrate their new EP "Justylied" (which I also produced) today at Rocket Club Landshut. It's released via 30 Kilo Fieber Records and True Trash - you can order it here or listen on Spotify!

Looks like Young Fast Running Man did it again... here's the new video to the second single "Electrified" from the album "Young Bird" (Nov 2, 2018 via Slash Zero Records) - see the guys rock the Slash Zero Studio...

Wow - Young Fast Running Man recently posted this awesome in-the-studio-making-of-video for his new album 'Young Bird' (coming Nov 2018) that almost looks like an image movie for Slash Zero Studio, so come and take a closer look behind the scenes...

On Friday Sep 21st, my good friend Andy Kneitinger (under the moniker of "Illegal I") released his debut album "Illegal Eye" (which I had the honor to produce and play bass on) via Slash Zero Records.

If you like to support him, please take a listen on Spotify or get your copy at Bandcamp!

And because that's not enough for today, our befriended band Insert Coin also released their album "Way Out" via Uncle M on that particular day!

Check it out on Spotify and listen to Simon (from The Prosecution) helping 'em out on vocals (which I recorded @ Slash Zero Studio) on the song "Sidetracked"...

Now this year's summer was a hot one and accordingly Young Fast Running Man released a video to "Rod And Line" (from his upcoming album "Young Bird" which is going to be released on Nov 2, 2018 via Slash Zero Records) recalling it... check it out!

The world is now about to be introduced to "Illegal I" - Andy Kneitinger's solo project. Check out the first single to "My Schizophrenia" (where I appear to play bass), give him a Like on Facebook and subscribe to his YouTube channel for there is more to come...

Two more releases scheduled for August 2018 - this year seems to be a productive one...

1. Because all of their recent 3 albums completely sold out, my bros from "Ohrange" released a greatest hits album entitled "Perlen" last Friday. So if you missed their last albums "ohrange Album", "[er]leben", and "Wie Ein Mobile" (which I produced and played loads of instruments on and Air played some drums here and there, too), this compilation is for you!

2. In my last post I raved about the Hertrich Bros and their cool project "Attune", and last Friday August 3, 2018, they released their self-titled album "Attune" (which I mastered recently). It is now available digitally and on Spotify, but they do think about going vinyl for this one soon, so watch out if you like dark, moody, dreamy vibes with roots in downtempo, trip-hop, and nu-jazz while maintaining memorable harmonies and melodies.

Some of you might know the Hertrich Bros under the moniker of Young Fast Running Man - what some of you might not know is that they have even more brothers. Two of them have this neat ambient/triphop project called "Attune" and today they released a music video for "Nylon" as a teaser for their upcoming album (which I mastered recently...) - check it out!
