FATIMA YAMAHA LEGOWELT REMIX

Another Remix is out on vinyl -> FATIMA YAMAHA ‘Day we met’ Legowelt remix on Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig’s Magnetron Music. Also remixes by Orlando Voorn, DMX KREW and Betonkust! Buy the vinyl here, Digital on bandcamp here – I am sure it will turn up in your local record store too soon. I would describe it myself as some soothing meandering electro disco with heavy Quebeqesque-disco Gino Soccio vibe, the vocoder sounds are coming from my trusty Microkorg.

Swiss Synthesizer Museum LP Unconditional Countours 

The Unconditional Contours album which I made in a residency at the SMEM Swiss Museum for Electronic Isntruments in Fribourg last year  is going to be released for the general public around 2 october. This LP was released last year November already for backers of the museum crowdfunding plan but will now be available in the recordstores.  

Anyways…The SMEM has an amazing collection of more then 5000 synths, keyboards, organs, drummachines, fx machines and more…ranging from a 1930s NOVACHORD to an ELKA Synthex and everything in between. The cool thing is that you can book a date in their playroom and play/record/freak with a selection of the collection yourself. For more information on visiting the collection and booking the playroom check out their website

The Second Audition Movie

I did the soundtrack for this Dutch movie called ‘The Second Audition’ directed by the Iranian Dutch director Pouya Gourabi. Its very arthouse and you probably need an IQ of 200 to make head or tail of it. If you are in the USA you can watch it on Amazon here the rest of the world has to wait a bit or maybe you can download it on TORRENTZZZZZZZ

The synopsis goes something like this: After a failed audition for a theatre play an actor is offered a mysterious job in which he has to tail a woman from a well to do family.

I also play a very little role in it! Performing a scene with my Hohner KS49 keyboard (Which is a German version of the CASIO HT700) in some kind of ‘theatre grottesco’  with Guy Schmerzlabor doing some weird stuff. More info about that keyboard and sound snippets here

Here is a trailer of the movie:
