During my training as a sound engineer, I regularly went to concerts to learn about the technology and process of live mixing. I was also a regular at the Duncker Club in Prenzlauer Berg. There, after the concert, I met the rockabilly band SLICK FITTY from the United States. They were on tour and had two more concerts to play in Berlin. I offered my services for practice purposes and made my first live recordings at Wild at Heart and Mad’n’Crazy. Funnily enough, I met Dirk, Bärbel, and Teddy at Mad’n’Crazy, and that’s how my journey as a FOH engineer began. This was followed by Schlachtrufe BRD at Casino and Punk and Disorderly at Metronom.
