  • Where I’m At

    It’s been ages since I’ve been blogging or vblogging regularly. Over the course of the last year and a half I’ve started my business Sonic Bloom through which I teach music production with Ableton Live…

  • Ticking off boxes

    Alright, it’s sooo time for an update. The three days on Usedom were great. Got some sun (and quite some freckles), hit the waves and relaxed. Three days without my music to gain some perspective…

  • More catching up

    As promised, here comes the sequel… So what else have I been up to lately… Last Tuesday was the last hot day for a while and since I hadn’t had much time to enjoy the…

  • Counting down to zero

    Still on ‘Zero Tolerance’. Recorded the last missing vocals. My voice is still a bit rattled by allergies (darn birch trees), so I guess I’m gonna re-record them at some point. I started working on…

  • Back

    Haven’t really been away, but in the last week I had quite some creative ups and downs. Got stuck on ‘Euphoria’, then realised that the refrain was just not euphoric enough, but by then I…

  • Glass harp & “Beatboxing”

    Since a friend is staying at my place before he flies back home I have had less time in my studio because it’s also my living and guestroom. So I opted for not writing, but…

  • Flee flu flow

    I’ve been flat out for a whole week. After just having recovered from a cold I managed to get the flu, too. It came as the whole package: fever, chills, aching all over, extreme weakness……

  • Seagate FreeAgent Pro

    Backupping fun

    Still working on ‘In Unison’ and I really like the way it’s going. I spruced up the beats, all done now I guess apart from some panning and effects fun. They’re almost drum’n’bassey except the…

  • how to get around in Berlin these days

    Threes and fours

    I’m gonna have to keep it short tonight. Seriously have to go to bed now. Early appointment tomorrow and apparently I have to walk for almost 40 minutes to get there because of this damn…

  • Spring is just around a corner

    Took me a while to get going today. I felt like I was coming down with a cold, but no, it’s just my body thinking it’s being attacked by vicious tree pollen. So I’ve been…

  • Tissues of night

    So I began the new song called ‘Webs’ today. Like a breath of fresh air. Back in the flow of things. No sign of writer’s block. Ha! The lyrics are taken from a short story…

  • Words unspoken

    Back in the studio after taking the weekend off. I can’t say that it was all that relaxing, but that’s my own fault… got hammered with my best friend. The more disciplined I am most…

  • Finally weekend…

    I’ve been pretty busy trying to finish ‘Chaos & Order’. The beats are mixed and automated. The rough mix is done, too. I realised though that I have to rerecord the vocals, don’t really know…

  • Beats & Brass

    It’s been a very long day yesterday, but a very successful one. In the end I was already kind of getting cross-eyed and it would have taken me twice the amount of time to write…

  • Stadtbad Neukölln

    Sussing out

    I had some appointments in the morning and early afternoon and managed to go swimming in between in this great public swimming pool that was built in 1914 (Stadtbad Neukölln. Yep, that’s where I live,…

  • Chaos & Order

    That’s what today has been like and it’s also the song I’ve worked on. I said I would try a kind of R’n’B- or HipHop-style, but I can’t really say that it sounds like that…
