3) KREZIP also released a DVD with their P.U.R.E. set on it. And that their latest single (mine) was taken from those sessions (mixed by Hans Bunt and myself.) If you'll buy the DVD, you will also get a free audio-cd with these recordings!

Live

Not all the things I am recording/mixing R gonne be on this News-section. Simply because I haven't got time enough to write it all down....

I just finished 2 projects for the American band LIVE:

They were in Holland for a special TV-show called 'PopSecret' (BNN). Their management asked me to come and multitrack the show, and do the mixing.(I've recorded and mixed Live 7 times already). The recordings were made @ NEMO, wich is some kind of a museum in Amsterdam, and there where only 250 people lucky enough to be in the audience! [CLICK HERE for some pics!] After that I went two days into the MCO3 studio to mix ( together with engineer Frank Mathijssen) all the songs on a lovely NEVE VR desk. (Probably the only Neve-desk in this country?!)

 A week later Frank and got hired by MCA/Universal again, this time to mix a LIVE show that was recorded in Brussels. This show was broadcast @ TMF Vlaanderen. Some tracks we mixed, ended up on CD-single. Click here
