Ein Astronaut's video: MiniDoc 03 Behind The Freiheit

A mini documentary about how we've created the song which you can find here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BGbnfCjAAA&t=11s With my new project of inviting music guests into my studio for collaborating I’ve also started creating little „making of“ documentary clips. What started as a „side effect“ is now becoming more and more fun. I really enjoy scrolling through all our takes again in search of beautiful moments that show the workflow and give you an idea of the atmosphere that helped create the music. I t’s also a good way for me to reflect on how the particular artist has inspired me with his/her very own unique workflow and style, what I have learned and want to remember or implement into my own process. That’s also why I’ve decided to give those „MiniDocs“ their own slot. From now on They’ll be posted one week after the song they belong to. The project has only just begun but I already feel like i have learned so many new things and gained lots of inspiration during the past few sessions. I’m very thankful for everyone who has visited and shared their creativity with me so far! If there’s anything you’d like me to show in more detail in future episodes, feel free to let me know! It seems like I can’t sing in German. It’s my mother tongue and the language I’m talking in most of the time but singing in it feels strange and the result has never satisfied me so far. I’m not quite sure what’s the reason for this. Maybe the way I sing doesn’t really fit with the way German words sound. You somehow have to sing them different than English words to make them sound good. Playing drums to a guitar track can be quite tricky. Normally, a drummer is responsible for the basic dynamic of a song. When the dynamic is already set by another instrument it can be a little challenging to make the drumbeat fit. For this song we recorded the guitar first because it had already existed as an acoustic live version and we wanted to adapt our version to that „drive“. Challenge accepted!
