Classic 70’s snare drum sound
Here is a video in which Jasper is experimenting with different microphone positions to get this open fat vintage old school snare sound. Close versus distant miking.

new track & video
Last week we recorded a new track in our rehearsal room (both audio and video). This will give you an impression on how our project sounds and how it looks. For the first time we are using the connection between the audio and the video. It is a first attempt but the possibilities are endless and we very eager to use and improve this new opportunity. It can only get better : – )
The track is based on an old recording of Soul Of A Man by Blind Willie Johnson but you will also hear some Led Zeppelin
ableton + resolume
When we started this project we wanted to combine everything we learned over the last 40 years and create something new with our experience and the technological possibillities of 2017. We are making great progress in adding and connecting graphics to our music and we are discovering new technical possibillities almost daily. For our musical ‚framework’ we are using Ableton and now we have connected that in real-time (via midi) to Resolume for the images, movies and visual effects. We are busy arranging, recording and taping and will be able to show you the first results soon.
