Info for Echo Sounder - The Live Sessions

Echo Sounder is a 5 track live recording EP that I completed for the third time, in close cooperation with the bassist, composer and producer Mario Ehrenberg-Kempf. We shared all the moments with a wonderful audience following us with so-called “silent-disco” headphones following our performance last September in Burgdorf near Hannover. Til von Dombois recorded us and Chiara Bon took over the video recording and production parts (link). Arne Neurand from the great Horus Studio in Hannover mixed our tracks and Hervé Jeanne managed the mastering. The Production also comprises the track “Echolot” based on a poem from Ludwig Westarp.

“…Somewhat shaken by the cancellation of the 2020 tour, Mario and I decided to bring new compositions on the road – but where does the journey go? We were aiming for groove, suitability for live performances, a more raw feel and deep resonance. So I took my bigger 20” bass drum and a dirty 16” hi-hat. We wanted to do a few things differently.

But in the end, surprisingly, we found that it still had the essential Fire Orange sound. And that was perfect. I am grateful for the help of the GVL (Neustart Kultur) and thrilled about Stephan’s contribution to percussion and live electronics. A dream came true for Mario and me with the live audio and video recording of our new tracks featuring a fabulous band with Markus and Florian. It was the right decision to take this step – also thanks to your support. This gave us wings. The moments of the session are still present, echoing, now quite real…” (Konstantin Septinus)
