Thanks to all the lovely people who supported my campaign on www.startnext.de! I reached the goal and raised the money for producing my record. Thanks again!!

Some news about the recordings: we are still in the mixing process and there is no date for the release yet. But the mix should be done by the end of this week. Come back in a couple of days and maybe I’ll have some news…

We entered the studio 10am and left 10pm. Little daylight and fresh air during that time. But now eight songs are done, just two more to go. It’s been an intense time for me singing and Karsten, Thomas and I fixed a lot of little bugs as well. The mixing starts on saturday and I’m really looking forward to it.

Since yesterday I’m working at the wonderful Gentle Art Studio (Hamburg) with Karsten Deutschmann and Thomas Lebioda from Labelship to finish my record. After nearly 12hours of hard work four songs are nearly done, so just six more to go. When everything is recorded the record will be mixed and mastered by Karsten and Thomas. We hope to finish everything until the weekend. So have a look at my page once in a while.

as you can see my home has been refurbished. i also added some new videos to the visual section. during the next weeks i will finish the record. have a look at my startnext campaign if you like.
i will keep you updated about the recording process and my campaign if you come back in a couple of days.

hej!

i’ve been busy and i started a campaign to finance the production of my forthcoming record “a day by the sea”. please have a look at my video and let me explain everything on
my Startnext-campaign. i would be very pleased if you would support me.

thanks!

i know it’s been quite a while since my last update. but i am still working on the record (in a broader sense). i found a wonderful record label for my new album and during the process of “negotiating” we realized that we have to fix some problems caused by lousy recording-technique (namely by myself). we will re-record the vocal tracks and maybe the drums tracks in january (and i will definitely add a piano, and…) and the release of the album will be a few months later (march-april 2012).

please be patient and if you have the time come and visit my last show for this year in hamburg.

i will keep you updated about the record… come back soon!

take care,
nikolai

i’ve posted some videos in the visual section. enjoy while i work on the record to be published…

pretty funny, eh!? ok. not really. the record is still finished but now I’m trying to figure out how the artwork, the way releasing the album, etc. might work. I never thought it could take so long, but I was obviously wrong at this point… I think (and hope!!) that fall is a realistic period for releasing the album. in the meantime: man at work!

i rearranged the audio section. you can find now three songs from my forthcoming record and one from my ep ‘on and on’.

It’s been 193 days since I started with the recording of my new album ’Stories the sea told me at night’. Today I can proudly announce: it’s done! The last three days I spent at the Gentle Art Studio in Hamburg and with the help of Karsten Deutschmann it has become a wonderful record.
The next few weeks I will spend on creating a physical record as well. In the meantime you can listen to some of the new songs.
