My background really is fundamentally connected with the drums in their purest nature:
The Creation.
I was always fascinated by the necessary processes to create a finished drum or cymbal.
So I approached many drum and cymbal manufacturers over the years and started to build a little drum-heaven for myself as well as for others in a form of a drum shop.

But my fascination for creating things didn’t stop there, but it began to evolve, as finding myself behind the drum kit always brought me endless joy and curiosity.
I was inquisitively diving into the creation of sound right away and was fully-blown with capturing and recording it.
Thus, over the years I started to wonder, why this joy and fascination should only be hidden inside my own creations. Why shouldn’t I share this joy and help people with their creations and sounds?

This idea turned into what you see now.
Let me help you create something what makes others happy!

Perfect for demos and ideas

This is your option!
I will record a mix with just an overhead and kick mic.
Often it is all you need to reach the next step to a finished song.
By default the overhead is a Slate ML1 (Neumann U67 – Emulation)
and the KickOut is a Slate ML2 (Neumann U47 FET – Emulation).
Other mics and emulations can be chosen as well.
