Every little step counts... even the last one!!

As you might already have noticed, I added some electrics and vocals to thePlessing's upcoming debut EP called "Every little step counts". The last step in producing this EP was the mastering.
So, music is done, finally!!! Pretty popular mastering engineer Tom Krüger did a pretty good job. The songs sound really like... like... BAAAMMM! I'm so stoked for your opinions in about december.

Introducing someone thinking a lot

Carsten's a friend of mine. And he's thinking a lot. Maybe that's why we kind of found each other. In his blog he's writing about different theological and philosophical topics. Whenever I find some time to read it's really inspiring me. Maybe you get inspired too, as long as you know german.

thePlessing shares snippet

This year I recorded the electric and some vox harmonies in the studio for my friend thePlessing. Now, the first official hearable snippet is online. Man, this sounds awesome! Check it out and show some love to my friend.
By the way, I played my Strat through the AC30 with a humming trem and reverb. That's it. Just crunchy guitar chords. At the end of the song I'm playing a fuzz lick using a Rat - thanks to Greg Davis for lending this great pedal.

modern sounds in old churches

Last weekend I had so much fun playing with All Around at the old church of Auhausen. What a great moment to feel the sounds flying around your ears. The sound was a bit like in a cave, very special but so atmospheric.

All around Bavaria

What's next to come? I'm pretty happy to play with my friends of All Around on sunday again. We are stoked to play at the Christus-Treff youth service in Auhausen, Bavaria. What I love about the church, that it gathers Christians of different denominations. I'm looking forward to see my lutheran brothers and sisters again! God is awesome. Peace.

Folks, just received the rough track versions of the five songs I recorded for my friend thePlessing. I'm so impressed and looking forward for the mastered songs to come. I don't wanna say too much except - be stoked for something pretty cool to be released this fall! Any pre-listening volunteers? Check out thePlessing.com!

Last takes

We're done. Last weekend we finished the recordings for thePlessing at Janz Team Studios. We had a blessed time and worked about 15 hours each day. For me, making music and recording stuff is a beautiful work. I enjoyed it so much! Thanks especially to awesome producer Greg Davis who did a great job! You're the man.

Be stoked for what is to come. We kind of reinvented the songs. This fall thePlessing will release a pretty cool Debut EP! Here are some pics of our time in the studio. More to come.

Listening to the takes.

Warm-up choir.
