This year, I received a request to help out as a live mixer at the Liederlauschen Festival at the Theater am Rand because one of the technicians was unable to attend. Well, one man’s loss is another man’s gain. And so I was able to discover this great festival and many fantastic acts from Germany and Poland. Among my favorites were Rainald Grebe, Tantfreaky, Ina West, Deep in Moon, Rider’s Connection, LOTA and Kunstloses Brot.
The festival is beautifully located on the Oder River and offers a colorful program for families with children. We were wonderfully looked after by the association team during our stay and the atmosphere was enchanting! I really hope to be able to work here again!

LUISE’S AWAKENING
As in previous years, I once again worked as a media educator with children from the Oderbruch region to shoot the sequel to the series HORROR IM ODERBRUCH. The third part deals with a dark danger that seeks to seduce young people with energy drinks. And Luise awakens from her haunting. Creepiness and suspense are guaranteed! Once again, I wrote the script, mixed the film, and took care of the sound design.

DAS MONSTER AUS DER ODER (2024)
Fish disaster August 2022 – The massive fish kill affected us all deeply and revealed various impacts on our everyday lives. Film and photography enthusiast Jürgen Keiper from the unDOKed e.V. association is a regular holiday guest in Kienitz and, while walking along the dike, had a brilliant idea to capture this issue on film!
IInspired by Tomoyuki Tanaka’s 1954 disaster film Gojira, a local monster created by a chemical accident was to terrorize the Oder River and terrify the residents!
In October 2023, filming took place at the Gasthof zum Hafen with young people from Letschin and the surrounding area. This was preceded by several workshops on choreography, costume design, sound and image design. In addition, the first drafts of the script were developed together with the kids, with everyone being asked about their personal feelings and moods being captured.
During our work, we relied heavily on local partners! A big thank you goes to Coworking Oderbruch, Kino Letschin, and Gasthof zum Hafen! Thank you so much for making us feel at home, allowing us to leave our mark, and giving us the space to be creative!
I am particularly pleased about the presentation of the results because this time I was able to focus on creative work, such as designing a monster costume, the accompanying sound design, and dramatic music…
And here you can finally watch the movie:
Cheers, David

LUISE’S REVENGE
The horror continues! In the winter of 2023, I wrote the script for the sequel to the series HORROR IM ODERBRUCH. Luise, the haunted boatwoman, encounters other witches from the Oderbruch to take bitter revenge on the young people. We shot the film in April, and the world premiere followed in May at the Letschin cinema! I also did the mixing and sound design as the soundtrack for the second part of the series.

100 mijolen moments
100 Mijolen Moments is a music project by producer Bernhard Bauch. Four musicians locked themselves in his studio for a week to create a musical work together. My job was to master the recordings, which I did with great pleasure.
You can listen to the whole album and find interesting facts about the creation of that artwork at Bernhard‘s Website…
Here is an excerpt from the intro song “TURMSPITZE” from Bernhard Bauch and the musicians Mathias Baresel, Nina Clarissa Frenzel, Frieda Gawenda and Thomas Strauch

nachtkoenigin
DAS FABRIKAT released their album NACHTKÖNIGIN where I did the mastering for. I liked the energy of the record, which still seemed a little raw, but hit exactly the right note. More albums are to follow, and I’m already looking forward to them. Solid rock meets German vocals that get under your skin.
You can listen to the whole album on YOUTUBE MUSIC and APPLE MUSIC
