And also check out the brilliant video that was made for the Kinkobra single I recorded, mixed & produced;

Rockin'

I have been involved in a couple of nice projects recently!
(some of them have to remain secret for now...)

Finished working on the demo-cd for photographer Bullet-Ray his new band. Mixes turned out very nice!
They are still not sure what the new bandname will be, so I will call them BZN untill they come up with something better ;-)

Here's a video of Ray recording a guitarsolo:

Kinkobra's single has been released (finally), and was picked up instantly by radiostation 538; daily airplay!

This rockin' single is called "I'll die 4 thin"
I hope we can start recording their debut album this fall.


While in the middle of the cd-production of Colossa, we had to take a vacation-break. But as soon as all members return to earth we will continue recording vocals for their debut album.
Mixing is scheduled for early october. In the meantime you can you can visit one of their impressive livegigs and have a look at a video impression of the recordings so far:

Hopefully Patrick Le Duc's great debut album will be released soon. In the meantime Patrick came up with the idea to record a special live-session later this month. I look foreward to recording & mixing it.

Patrick LeDuc / KinKobra / Barbarella / Bertolf / Arthur Adam

Allright,

I was involved in a lot of great projects lately!

First of all I want to tell you about this great new talent; Patrick LeDuc. Patrick is a Dutch singer-songwriter with roots in Counting Crows, Tim Christensen, Gemma Hayes and a bit of Soundgarden. 
A stunning debut has been recorded with Paskal Jakobsen and Peter Slager of the famous Dutch band BLØF & drummer Martijn Bosman (probably the best drummer in this country!).

The album "Square Moods" will be released in Fall 2010 & it contains great songs. Some of the songs remind me of the energy & passion featured on "Selling The Drama" by Live. Besides that I also should mention that Patrick is a gifted singer with a beautifull voice!

Recorded, produced & mixed a single called "I'll die 4 thin" for the band KinKobra. 
It's an a$$-kickin' rock track! The band won a band-competition on radio 538, and this will certainly result in airplay.

This trio is really rockin' and I hope we will be able to make an album in the future.

Another a$$-kickin' band I worked with is Barbarella.

They are recording an album right now, and asked me to mix a song that was already finished. The song is called "I am the Wolf" and will be used for promotional purposes.

If I had to describe their music I would say Stoner rock combined with Placebo & a touch of Soulwax.

The rest of the albumtracks will be recorded during the next months and they expect to be ready with the album at the end of the summer. A release date is not scheduled yet. We'll keep you posted.

I also teamed up with Bertolf fot some radio & TV promo gigs. I did th livemixes in shows like; Pauw & Witteman, De Wereld Draait Door, Giel, Tros Muziekcafe, Q-music, Evers Staat Op, BNN That's Live, Bring it On etc etc.

Besides all that I am also still enhancing my new mix&overdub studio in Soest (((GieSound)))

all... and for all you suckers that did not listen Arthur Adam's album "Awake" yet... YOU SHOULD!! Everyone who loves music by artists like Damien Rice, Jeff Buckley, Sufjan Stevens, Sebadoh, The Police and Motorpsycho should really check it out since I am pretty damn sure you will love it!!
