016 - Harsh Sibilance
October 08, 2021 13:43 - 28 minutes - 64.1 MBThis week I mainly speak about mixing. What it is and what it isn't. And how my voice annoys me due to its harshness. And what to do about it.

015 - People can fuckin' read!
September 24, 2021 16:36 - 30 minutes - 69.3 MBAnother week of me rambling incoherently (but full of wisdom) into my phone. Weirdly, sometimes I even get messages from people who a) clearly listened to my stream-of-consciousness meandering and b) seem to like it. So I will just continue doing it, because, in the immortal words of the one and only Bill Belichick: "it beats being a plumber". This week I talk about logos/branding, thinking in German vs in English, thinking about Bootytime, black baseball caps and more. Clearly the best epis...
014 - This needs to be mastered!
September 17, 2021 16:00 - 20 minutes - 46.1 MBIn this episode I begin to explain what mastering is and why people have strange misconceptions about it. Then Jasenheimer shows up and I have to drink. Not because of Jasenheimer. But also because of Jasenheimer. You all know how that goes! I also talk about writing a second song with Esther (includes audio examples!) and about the new Kickstarter campaign, as well as the new album progress.

013 - Be who you can afford to be
September 11, 2021 16:48 - 25 minutes - 57.8 MBThis is an episode full of truth. Some would call it rants. I just call it honesty. I talk about why playing in the US is really unappealing to smaller European bands, I talk about the fact that young artists constantly overvalue themselves and I also talk about Jim Carey - who I don't like at all as an actor. Plus more background info from the album production process. This episode is deep. Like deep tech. Podcast: http://podcast.faderhead.com Email: [email protected] Patreon: http:/...
012 - To Gin or not to Gin?
September 03, 2021 15:03 - 31 minutes - 72.4 MBIn this episode I discuss a lot of things: from why guitars and electronic music don't fit together to procrastination to vocal comping. Don't know what vocal comping is? Listen to this episode!

011 - Big picture thinking
August 27, 2021 16:00 - 12 minutes - 17.8 MBThis is a short episode about progress on the upcoming album. This episode has much better sound than previous episodes, because I decided to not just use Anchor to assemble the podcast. Anchor was too slow and unprecise. Now this sounds snappy! Ja!

006 - Fleischwinter
July 09, 2021 16:00 - 19 minutes - 18.3 MBI am still rehearsing my little booty off and I have started a consulting service for non-German bands who want to name their band with a German name.

005 - Those Dirty German Clurbz
July 02, 2021 15:28 - 25 minutes - 23.6 MBThis is an episode full of deep thinkings. It's also the first episode where someone (to be precise: it was my friend Bombe!) complained that the audio was coming from the right side of his headphones. So that prompted me to spare no effort or expense and buy an app that records in mono. Because my Huawei app records in stereo for no good reason. If you pay close attention, you can even notice the difference. I also give tips on how to achieve better quality voice recording audio on your pho...
004 - FutureFader Is Watching
June 25, 2021 15:32 - 28 minutes - 26.3 MBThis week my past me is reaching out to me from the future, I insult a snivelling jackanape who complains about festival lineups, I publicly shame Kei Kyunaa, and Kid Moxie and I are making wedding plans. I also ask "Why?". It's a good episode, ja!

003 - How Do You Know If Your Band-/Artistname Is Good?
June 18, 2021 16:00 - 24 minutes - 22.5 MBThis week I talk about working with Enrique Jesus Hernandez and I come up with 3 questions to evaluate a good band- or artistname. Most bands should have asked themselves this, but they didn't. Oh well! Kid Moxie comes from L.A. to visit me for two days of songwriting and of course there is Q&A with Dewanka. Gut, ja!

002 - Everything Louder Than Everything Else
June 11, 2021 15:57 - 21 minutes - 20.3 MBYes, I know, the title is actually a Meat Loaf song, but it does fit with one of the segments! I am getting into the habit of recording my rambling thinking and - just like the newsletter - it's actually a really helpful tool to think some stuff through and notice when you notice things. 10/10 would recommend. This week I am travelling to Bavaria to visit Qork & Xork & Bork. Plus I DJ badly. Plus many other things. You will like it! Email: [email protected] Patreon: http://www.patreon...
