If you hire me, you get someone with an honest but never discouraging view on your (often very personal) material.
These days, budgets are shorter than ever. I believe in finding the best use for your budget, meaning : Let's not focus on paying for the unimportant stuff. Rather concentrate on what connects with human beings. That is always the emotional impact the material has. A Great mix can really emphasize that impact. Easy example : If people can't concentrate on the singers voice, because there is a drumsolo going on in the chorus - my job would be to tell you : The Drumsolo in the chorus is incredible! reminds me of John Bonham. Now let's put this in another song and let it breathe :D .I see music as communication. A form of communication we can't fully understand - but we can feel it. I studied musicology and psychology. Some people believe that knowing a lot about music and how it works cripples your emotional antennas...Countless acts I have worked with over the last 15 years have proven that this is bullshit. Being a music expert, doesnt mean I don't feel music anymore.I still close my eyes when I listen to music.I still believe in the power of music. Maybe I am oldfashioned. But music has given me so much emotional peace and freedom in my life, I won't give up. I owe to the music.
Please have a listen to my work.If you're passionate-we speak the same language.

Interview with Daniel Bernath THE DELTA MODE

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: I wrote Syqem's Reflections of Elephants about the life and death of Salvadore Dali. It was eye opening for me to write a concept album, travel to places and really take music back to a more artistic wholistic approach.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: I'm working on a song with Sean Kingston (Beautiful Girls) and original songs for Spinnin Records.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Nolly from Periphery is such a great guy and super talented. He is perfect for the heavy heavy stuff I would say!
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: its 2016. do what works best for you.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: We will have a product that people who want to connect with it - will connect with it. You can't satisfy everyone and tastes differ. But if we both work on a ballad for your girl, she will cry when she hears it :) If you play that ballad to a stranger in the streets, he probably give you a strange look. We will do the right thing for your song.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Seeing an artist develop over time and gaining the success he/she deserves.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What do you listen to ? Where do you come from? What inspires you? How can I help you?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Listen to what I have done in the past, (for metal/rock look for "syqem" on youtube, for edm look for "the delta mode") - watch my demo reel on my facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/uebersoundstudios/videos/1095723077133725/) - then talk to me ! :)
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Mac Book Pro, Ilok, Neumann U87, XLR Cable, 8 string guitar...
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: 15 years, playing in bands, on tour , now djing more and trying to bring electronic and real music together.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Honest.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: Peter Gabriel, because he is unreal with how he writes lyrics and performs them.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Write a song a day. you will get better and in 2 years, you will write hits.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: House, Dubstep, Metal and Pop.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Emotional connetion with the music and finding its strength and weaknesses in the way it connects with an uninvolved listener.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Everything you want! from songwriting input to ideas on what guitar strings to use...
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I work in an acoustically optimized studio in Hamburg, Germany.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Max Martin, Skrillex, Chris Lord Alge, Tool, Meshuggah, Wesley Pentz...
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: I usually get preproductions of songs, then give my input - going as far as completely rewriting the song if desired. Then we record the stuff together or the band does it on their own. After that I mix and master the songs. But nowadays every production is different. I also do mix a lot of stuff recorded other studios.
