Interview with LARS
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Power generator -> laptop -> audio interface -> microphone -> spanish guitar
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My golden ears first...
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Rippingtons, Dire Straits, Michael Jackson, Dave Koz, Bruce Swedien, Michael Brauer...and so many more..
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Guitar, piano, producing & mixing. Doing that for 30+ years I hear what a song needs and what not...I always serve the song and feel what the listeners wants to hear
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Almost any kind of style from classical guitar to Rock, Jazz, Flamenco, Worldmusic, Pop in between. I came through Rock to the Electric Guitar, played Classical Guitar for many years and studied Jazzguitar at the Music Academy Basel, so my horizon is quite wide I would say :)
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: There were many and even from the not-so-good ones I learned something and took some experience with me.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Finishing some radio singles
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Analog AND Digital. Because both worlds have some advantages and disadvantages, so why not to combine the best from both ?!
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: I take everybody serious
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Creativity, new influences, making people happy and doing what I can do the best.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: "Can you play this kind of style ?" Luckily my answer is mostly "Yes"
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: What, to make music is a profession ? LOL (at least these were the reaction 20 years ago here...)
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: Whats your goal...
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Communication is king...and reverence files, to check if you are both in the same ballpark. Music is an art, not science. Similar taste is crucial...
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: Piano 31 years, Guitar 23 years, professionally 20+ years and hiiiiiiiighly intense and passionated
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: worldpoprockjazzlatinethnogypsyfunk with always my personal note inside...
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: STAY TRUE TO YOURSELF AND BE CREATIVE !!!
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: see above...
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: My eclectic background enables me to create a fusion of influences, incorporating classical sensitivity, rock energy, jazz sophistication, flamenco passion, and global music flavors into my compositions and performances. Whether it be a heartfelt ballad, a fiery rock solo, a smooth jazz tune, or a lively flamenco piece, I aim to create a musical experience that is captivating and emotionally engaging.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: After getting contacted, I like to hear an mp3 of the clients track and some inputs/visions if he has a specific idea. Otherwise I offer something on my own. After being live & studio guitar player for so many years, I have some feeling for aesthetics and what could match the music style, the energy of the song a.s.o. the best. Sometimes I hit it 1st Track. If not, I talk with the client to get better what he imagines and do a revision. Some things about music are difficult to describe with words, so reverence tracks are helping in such cases.
