Mixing and Tracking Basses

I'm mixing for Bands/ Ensembles in the field ranging from Indie-Rock all the way through experimental music. I'm have a jazz degree from the music university of cologne (germany) and am a freelancing musician for indie- / pop bands in addition to playing in my own more experimental ensembles.

Victor Gelling (*1998 in Berlin) is an improviser and composer who uses stringed instruments including but not limited to upright bass, tenor banjo, Pedalsteel- and Nonpedalsteel-Guitars in addition to pedals, synthesizers and barely working self-coded computer programs to create sounds. Their work spans genres from jazz to noise to electric cowboy songs to complex music, which culminates in their large ensemble works with „Trash & Post-Chaotic Music“, their indie-rock alias „Slowklahoma“, solo works, the experimental endeavour "NOW MY LIFE IS SWEET LIKE CINNAMON" or their playing in the Jorik Bergman Trio.

Concert tours have taken them to Cuba, Poland, France, Spain, Italy, Austria, the Czech Republic, the USA, the Netherlands and Saarland. Festival appearances include the Acht-Brücken-Festival Cologne, the Warsaw Autumn Festival, the Centre Court Festival Cologne, Cologne Jazzweek and the Festival de La Habana de Música Contemporánea (Cuba). Texts written by Victor have been published in the German magazine Jazzpodium. They are part of the board of the Cologne Jazz Conference e.V. and a member of the cologne based collective impakt.
