Die Sarazenen, meine Lieblingsband in der ich auch ganz zufällig miteifere, zeigte sich am vergangenen Wochenende von seiner produktivsten Seite und bannten zwei neue Songs auf´s Demoband. In der langjährigen Bandgeschichte brachten es die Musikanten, die mehr dicht als nicht sind, fertig, in weniger als 5 Stunden Krach auf hohem Niveau abzuliefern. Das Klangknäul wurde freilich aus billigem Garn zusammengestrickt, aber in der Summe klingt der Noizeterror sehr geil! Dass Carlo - übrigens der Trommler - sich nicht auf seine gewohnte Betriebstemperatur knüppelte und damit für die Holprigkeit unserer Aufnahme verantwortlich zeichnete, lag daran, dass unsere mobile Heizeinheit gegen die sibirische Kälte draußen und drinnen nichts anhaben konnte und damit unser sonst so schweizerisches Uhrwerk  ins Wanken brachte.

Ich bot meinen Teil des Stücks mit gewohnter stoischer Routine und Brillianz dar und Thilo, der Mann an der Front, verbarg seinen Argwohn darrüber, dass er seinen Amp nicht in gewohnter Flugzeugturbinenlautstärke fahren konnte, gelassen hinter konzentriertem und souveränen Gitarrenspiel.

Bitte teilt mir eure Meinung, warum euch die Musik gefällt/nicht gefällt, mit!

Vielen Dank!

Hi, this is the second Version and I think better one of this song, I recorded a new solo part and deleted the old one. And I fixed some minor issues. Comments will be appreciated greatly!

I´ve decided to put some of my old productions online. One of these old productions was the IN FLAMES song Artifects Of The Black Rain. Soundquality isn´t this good but it could be even worse like you will see soon. I recorded this song 4 years ago unfortunately the Solo is missing due to a bouncing mistake

Endlich hab ich mal ne Stunde Zeit gefunden um mit Kamal in Kolloberation einen Instrumental Rock Hit zu schreiben und produzieren. Noch mal Vielen Dank an das Ilmenauer Kammerorchester, welches das Intro dieses Lieds beisteuerte.

Viel Vergnügen.

Und auch schöne Grüße an Moritz, unser Lied wird auch in Kürze hier veröffentlicht…

One of my interpretations of an original In Flames song called :
Bulletride (mp3 128kbit, 4.2mb)

You´ll find the original song on the remarkable In Flames Album :

Clayman.

I think my cover of it turns out pretty good and it is really useful for using it as a backing track to practise the typical growling and screaming.

The youngest album is this one :

Soundtrack To Your Escape

I love this song. The first time I listened to it I just wanted to play it too, unfortunately it was so damn difficult to play. It took me about 1 and a half year to improve my technique so far to be partly able to play the song. Decide yourself if I was able enough:

By the way, there is a funny tiny story around this song I experienced a couple of months ago:
A website with hundreds of great musicians competing each other called Guitarwar offers memberships for a small fee I was eager to get a membership there. At that time there was the possibility to win a free 6-month membership by competing with a record of your guitarplaying. I decided to record a cover of Technical Difficulties and to put it in there, expecting not much.\r\nBut far from it, I was suspected of cheating and had to prove that this was actually my guitarplaying. I tried to be gentle and did all the things the “guitarwar police” expected from me to prove my innocence. Finally I was spoken unguilty and got a 12 month membership for free. Really nice and generous staff at guitarwar.com

I wrote this song while back in march/april last year, and oftentimes I´ve got complaints about it regarding the various themes occuring in one song. Some of my friends yelled for instance : ” Man, Paul you could have done a couple of songs out of this one, someone need to explain you how to compose a real song.” I told him that I will pay attention to his advice at any time but till then I will do more crazy multi-theme songs.
Listen to the drums carefully, I put some efforts in programming the drum-patterns.
