Pianoteq 4 | Demo available

Sun, 22 Apr 2012 21:40:00 GMT

I just got the new Pianoteq 4 which I simply can describe as astonishing and wonderful instrument! Played on my full weighted 88 note wooden-key it is simply superb! I totally love the new Pianoteq 4 sound, the new smooth and warm convolution reverb, and its state-of-the-art playability.
I could not resist to record a short demo, so I recorded an extract from the "Polish National Dance n.1" by Xaver Scharwenka using the "D4 Classical Recording BA" preset (I only turned OFF the Limiter to get a real Classical full-dynamic range).

My latest Chillout/New-Age productions

Mon, 12 Dec 2011 04:40:00 GMT

I'd like to share with you these my last Chillout / New-Age productions that I made in collaboration with musician/producer Francesco Digilio and published by Sifare. For who does not know yet, I love to work in several music fields as my parallel "Piano" albums testify. Following albums are neither Metal nor Prog ... but I think you may like, or give as gift or suggestion. Sometime heavy-addicted fans or musicians need to relax too...

Holmes and Slice | Rick completed guitar recording!

Fri, 09 Dec 2011 08:55:00 GMT

Rick Renstrom has completed all of his guitar tracks and editing of the entire Holmes and Slice debut, “The Adventure Begins”. This marks the return of the virtuoso player after a 5 year hiatus. The new album features 11 tracks with an intense mix of neo-classical, metal, progressive and blues styles.

“By the end of 2004”, Renstrom recalls, “I had become a bit discouraged with where my music career was headed. I had become more motivated by money, as opposed to the music. In hindsight, that was certainly not the best way of thinking. I decided to take a break from it all and change my life direction.”

“By mid 2010, my life was not in a good place. I started receiving messages from thousands of my loyal fans from around the world, all asking me when I was going to release new music. That show of support, and the fact that my “Fire Within” video had more than a quarter-million views, really spoke to me. That show of support really motivated me to get back in the game.”

“The original plan was to do a follow up solo record, but after starting to work with Rich, his awesome soloing ability gave me some great ideas to write songs around. His excitement with the new material motivated me to the fullest. I looked at my style and started to reshape it into a new sound. I’m back to writing music for the sake of the music, and that has made all the difference in the world. I feel totally refreshed and revitalized.”

"I'm very proud of this album and what the band has accomplished together. Rich, Atma, and Mistheria play at such a level that I’ve been driven to play better, stronger and faster than I've ever played before. With players who are masters of so many diverse styles, there are truly no limits to where we can take this music.”

Holmes and Slice are currently slotted to enter Sweet Spot Studios in Seminole, Florida, to mix the album. At the engineering helm is James Fox, whose credits include work with David Ellefson, Jon Oliva, Circle II Circle, Wade Black and the late Matt Laporte.

Holmes and Slice | Press Release

Fri, 25 Nov 2011 21:00:00 GMT

"Holmes and Slice" bassist Rich Marks has completed his recordings for their debut album "The Adventure Begins...". While three-fourths of "Holmes and Slice" are seasoned recording artists (guitarist Rick Renstrom, drummer Atma Anur, keyboardist Mistheria), the "Holmes and Slice" debut is also the recording debut for Rich.

"Rich did an awesome job on this recording,” guitarist Rick Renstrom commented, “Albeit his first album, he played like a seasoned pro and I can guarantee that this is some of the best bass playing you will ever hear! Rich has created stunning bass lines and amazing solos that will surely garner him the recognition he deserves. His synchronicity with drummer Atma Anur is extraordinary and the two have created a rhythmic wall of sound that must be heard to be believed. I'm very excited for the fans to finally be able to experience this awesome record".

"This has been a great experience for me,” Marks added, ”Going into the studio for the first time with musicians of this caliber really raised the bar for me. Rick, Atma, Mistheria and I had an immediate chemistry that allowed the music to just flow. I am very proud to be a part of this awesome line up!"

Angel of Eden | New album in progress...

Thu, 03 Nov 2011 20:15:00 GMT

Last weekend, I and my great friend and amazing guitarist Roger Staffelbach we spent a couple days together working on the new material for the upcoming "Angel of Eden" band album.

We've hardly worked on an amazing instrumental, layed down some ideas and recorded some killer riffs!

Also we covered a great legendary Rock song with some heavy sounds.

I can just say that it will be an heavy, dark, metal, and killer album!
