Noel Mittmann on SoundBetter

Songwriter and Session musician. In the file of session musicians at the Galaxy Studios.

Hello,
my name is Noel. I´m a multi-instrumentalist, originally from Germany, currently based in the Netherlands.
I play guitar since I was six years old. Over the years, I have learned bass, drums, keys, piano and singing as well. I make my own music (indie pop) and write all instrument parts by myself. I am in the file of session musicians at Galaxy Studios (Mol, Belgium), Bonafide Studio (London) and Hal5 Studios (Amsterdam, Netherlands). I´m a student of the Wisseloord Academy in Hilversum as well.

Feel free to contact me. Looking forward.

Interview with Noel Mittmann

Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I have a specific guitar, piano or bass part. I record this and then I just try to jam with the other instruments through this until I have a perfect part for every instrument. Later I start to write some lyrics and a melody as well. In the end I try to bring the music and the lyrics together.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: DAW, interface, guitar, bass, moog
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: I often work with a lot of reverb. It should sound like a big reverberation.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I would love to work with Jonny Greenwood or Ryuichi Sakamoto. What they have done in so many types of music is incredible.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I use the Steinberg Cubase AI Software as a DAW. For recording, I have a Rode NT1-A and the t.bone MB85 Beta. My main pedal on the pedal board is a Boss RV-6, besides that I often use a Fulltone OCD V2 and a Boss CH-1.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Kevin Parker is one big inspiration for me. He also records all instruments by his own for Tame Impala and produces everything as well. I really love the music of David Sylvian as well. He has a repertoire of several genres and brings the music into something very experimental.
