Sebastian "Basi" Roeder recently recorded a full CD of various church organ works for and - on site at - the protestant church in Oberstdorf / Bavaria.
The performance of cantor Katharina Pohl was captured through a small but high end recording setup consisting of 2 x Neumann M 149 tube microphones, Focusrite Red 1 mic pre´s, a Mac Book Pro with Pro Tools software, Motu-AD-converters and Genelec 1031A´s as mobile control monitors, allowing to achieve professional high resolution recordings also on site.
When we edited and mixed the recordings afterwards at the Backyard Studios, organist Katharina Pohl couldn't help but tell that she'd never heard "her" organ great like this before. :-)
A production that had been finished already a short while back now finally got released:
"Zeit zu gehen" (transl.: "time to go") , the second album of young artist Ludwig Pfeifer can now be streamed / downloaded from all common online platforms and is also available on CD.
12 high quality radio friendly and super catchy german pop songs have been recorded for this album.
Engineer and Co-Producer Sebastian "Basi" Roeder overlooked the vocal- and guitar recordings and also mixed the entire album at his BACKYARD STUDIOS.
Cool videoclips are available for the title track "Zeit zu gehen" (https://youtu.be/Q7VRvn1FtZE) and for the song "Weltraum" (https://youtu.be/uz6l3zfqvvw).
All the best and lots of success for you and your music Ludwig !
About one and a half year after his last release "Sax Club Mix" composer Rainer Fabich returned to the BACKYARD STUDIOS in order to work with engineer Sebastian "Basi" Roeder on his next album.
The new CD named "Action, Thrill & Suspense" was just released via Fajora Music.
Over the course of almost 70 minutes the CD contains 14 new instrumentals, covering a pretty wide stylistical range from musical insects to 80´s influenced electronica to film score-like tracks and symphonic / orchestral arrangements.
Sebastian "Basi" Roeder mixed and mastered the new CD at his BACKYARD STUDIOS, a long lasting collaboration with Rainer Fabich that goes ways back to the late 90´s and has included 11 albums so far.
Thanks a lot Rainer for your ongoing trust and your loyalty !
