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.

zeit
Inspired by my work as a live mixer at the Jazz und Mehr Festival on Hiddensee, I composed a song on the beach. It was written shortly after my first performance as a singer/songwriter at the festival and is about growing older and the passage of time. Enjoy it and please leave a like and subscribe:

tinef’s last gig
Founded in 2006 tinef played a lot of gigs and released one LP and two EPs. Our debut was at Berlin’s Bastard Club together with Minimum and Sanagi. In 2007 we joined the Emergenza Song Contest and played in venues like SO36 and LIDO and the KNAACK. I was composer, texter, guitarist and singer why also having the website and production under my hands. Due to changes in our daily live, we decided to end our musical journey.
It was one of the most interesting times in my life and I really miss to rock the stage! Here is our last show at GARAGE Pankow -
dont slip away
I wrote a song and produced it as well. It was the first time I tried the Glyn Johns’s drum Micing technique. The whole kit was recorded with only three microphones which makes it sound more like a complete instrument, rather than micing every component separately. When you record and produce your own music, it is sometimes hard to judge, because you are very close to the creative process. Therefore the vocal recordings and mixing was done by another engineer, Daniel Bär. If you like that kind of music, you may have a look at our band’s archive page.

I provided the soundtrack for a short commercial for a sustainability agency and played a few notes on the guitar. Nothing fancy, but I still think it’s quite nice.

die schachtel
In 2005, my buddy Holger applied to film school and had to submit a short film. I volunteered as an actor and composer of the film music. The soundtrack was created solely on the electric guitar. I still like the lick so much today. But unfortunately, I forgot how to play it. It was my very first soundtrack composition! But here you can watch the film again.

noon
After graduating from high school, I moved to Marburg in 2002 to study musicology. The course was very boring, so instead we just made music in our shared apartment. I wrote the song together with my buddy Steffen on a Pentium computer running Windows 98 and a Terratec sound card. I think I had a cracked version of Cubase SX and Reason 2 as my DAW. Those were the very beginnings of my audiophilia, and shortly afterwards I decided to move to Berlin and start my training at the SAE Institute.
