working on something – the sequel

Sonntag, 9. Oktober 2011

I’ve been busy quite some time lately, different projects catched my attention and destroyed my free time. First, there’s a Capybara320/Kyma in my studio now. Wonderful sound design workstation, I must admit.
On the other hand there’ve been just enough summerdays left not to stay in doors too long, keeping me away from the Kyma a bit.

Nevertheless I’ve been working hard on two projects, first my Fairground Recordings, which I’ve been able to give a listen and further postprocessing. I’ll probably finish a sample pack this winter, if you’re interested.

Apart from this I found my bandcamp page somewhat half-empty. So I decided to work on a follow up to my imperfect objects for perfect moments EP. Have a first glance:

Also some time ago I placed this demo recording on soundcloud. A different version of this song will end up on the EP:

I’ll report when the thing is finished and released, meanwhile please also watch my soundcloud and bandcamp!

imperfect objects – update

Samstag, 2. April 2011

Two weeks have passed since my last post and in the meantime some things happened.
The master copy
First: The mastered tracks arrived.
Second: I contacted the printshop who will print the CDr.
Third: I set up a bandcamp site, which is still empty.
Fourth: I did some paperwork (which is, I assume, a very german thing: No CD without paperwork)
More on this to come.
The printshop sent me an inspection copy of the CDr print, and after I had a look on that, I let them do some adjustments. The next inspection copy arrived yesterday. What’s the CDr print worth anyway? Can’t I just use Lightscribe? Said – Done.

Printed and lightscribed CDr's

As you can see, the contrast ist much higher on the printed CDr. This is what you get if you buy the EP at bandcamp.
So, what’s next? When the paperwork is done and all bills are paid, the CDrs will be delivered and the bandcamp site opens. I hope this to happen in two weeks from now.
Time to get my promotion running!

imperfect objects for perfect moments

that’s the title of my EP. As you have seen, I’ve been working on this for weeks. Although it’s not finished yet, I can present you some results today. Have a look at the artwork:

And have a listen to a preview of the songs on soundcloud.
