SEVENSOL’S
FIRST LOVESONG

“I had to think about my first love song for the whole day and on my way home today I remembered holidays with my mom and cousin on the baltic sea where I listened to a Guns ́N`Roses tape. The particular song for me was “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door“. Even though it’s not a love […]

FIRST RECORDS

“I have to say that I got my 1st records from a friend … Back in the days in 1999.. It was my birthday…My friends and my ex-girlfriend collected their money and had a special surprise for me.

My modular system is my favorite gear in the studio! Basically you can do everything depending on which parts are connected with […]

CHRISTOPHER RAU’S
TURNING POINT

 “It’s quite difficult for me to pick that one record that changed my life, because records in general did that. But there’s one record which gave me a very good feeling on the dance floor or at the turntable, over the time. It’s a collaboration between Jay Haze and Ricardo Villalobos, very warm and fluffy. […]

OSKAR OFFERMANN’S
FIRST LOVESONGS

Some very bad examples were: Roxette “It must have been love”…” Richard Marx “Right Here Wainting For You” Some better one […]
