NYE 2018 fireworks recording
01/01/18
NYE 2018 fireworks recording on my terrace with binaural head and AB technique (two DPA/B&K 4007).
(I had to blur out the binaural device. It is a prototypic, high quality device built for me, which I cannot show yet.)

SphereCube Dark Ambient album "mental rooms"
04/12/17
The first SphereCube Dark Ambient album "mental rooms" is online. All experimental compositions were produced in surround (5.0/5.1) from the beginning and are based on field recordings and synthetic sound scapes. With extensive room simulations, mostly with high end hardware devices, the album is a 66 minute long journey thru massive sound scapes.
The first release is a stereo mix down - special binaural and surround versions will follow.

"The Nasty 8"
02/10/17
Just released: my soundtrack to the film "The Nasty 8" by fashion photographer Ellen von Unwerth, a production of premium camera maker Leica. Appearing, beside several models, is Marilyn Manson. Shooting location was the famous Lautner House ("The Big Lebowski").
The whole fllm was shot with Leica S-System. I composed the whole music for this film, including remixed tracks from my personal Allvoid project and the upcoming "Robert Owens & Nirto" EP. The fantastic Robert Owens did additional vocals especially for this Leica production. Finally I mixed and mastered the complete audio track. This was a very satisfying work, combining composition with all audio production steps to the final stage. Special thanks to the great people at Leica.
