2024 opens a new world of AI options - and I released an Adelina Rmx which was made with the help of AI separating the original - allowing to edit the original mix without having single tracks or stems!
Link:
https://orcd.co/md7ae9e
This opens up a new world of possibilities and remixing/ remastering of original Basswerk tracks mixed on analog desk in the late 90s and more and we are planning to collect a new remix album. This is only one of mores examples to come to use AI in a positive and legal way.
The Green Man & Kingz’ rmx of Adelina was a 1998 summer hit
featured on Basswerk Sessions Vol.1 and Basswerk 06 vinyl. It was played at numerous Basswerk events, in the radio (for example byThomas Elbern) and around Germany, the compilation was album of the month in de:bug. It features the beautifulevoice of Andrea Canta, who is also known for singing on Nalin & Kane’s famous summer house anthem„Beachball“, which was number-one for four weeks on the Canadian RPM Dance/Urban chart and reached number two in Spain and number 10 in Germany.The original was composed by Oliver Heuss, who also wrote the famous hit „New York, Rio, Tokyo“ by Trio Rio (#3 in German charts). The 2024 Edit adds slightly more groove elements, bass and effects and shortens the overall track a little bit.
The cover artwork features a painting by Laszlo Milasovszky called „Meudon Circles“. Oliver Heuss also has released a fine remastered version of his original version.

May 28
Ich habe ein Buch über modulare Synthesizer geschrieben, das im Radial-Verlag erschienen ist. Das Buch soll möglichst zeitlosen Charakter haben und ein kompaktes Handbuch sein, um mit modularen Synthesizern zu arbeiten. Es geht auch um Sounddesign und künstlerische Konzepte. Besonders habe ich mich gefreut, dass Dieter Doepfer, der für mich Inspiration für alles war, das Buch nun auf der Webseite seiner Firma empfiehlt.
Patches gibt es unter synthesizer.cloud
Bestellbar ist das Buch nun auch im Basswerk Shop unter
https://basswerk.bandcamp.com/merch/modulare-synthesizer
außerdem direkt beim Verlag unter
https://synthesizermagazin.de/products/modulare-synthesizer-verstehen-bauen-spielen
Ständig erscheinen neue Module und interessante Videos im Netz.
Begleitend zum gedruckten Buch sammle ich unter
video.heinerkruse.de
Videos.
Der Radial-Verlag hat außerdem eine Seite modularesynthesizer.de
eingerichtet und veröffentlicht das Synthesizer-Magazin, für das ich regelmässig schreibe.
Bei Interesse an Online-Coaching zu diesem Thema können Sie mir eine email an heiner@basswerk.de mit dem Betreff „Synthesizer Coaching“ schreiben.

Basswerk 54 Word, Sound, Power w/ Peter Bouncer
This release features the Acoustic version + the album 2023 Rmx version + an extended Long version of the 2023 Rmx.
https://orcd.co/nvywrnx
Peter Bouncer is an outstanding singer, and he has been proving this before when he worked together with Congo Natty on "Junglist" (feat. Peter Bouncer) and by entering the UK charts at #2 when he worked with Shut Up & Dance. The Green Man's collaboration with Peter roots from his 2013 album and now comes in stunning new versions. The acoustic version is simply beautiful and emphasizes Peter’s great vocalist skills, while the 2023 Rmx rises the energy on the dancefloor.

My Echoes project, supported by Musikfonds e.V/ Neustart Kultur, is now kind of finished, but I will continue to work on some of those projects and I have learnt a lot from it.

In the October issue of professional audio I started writing about TASCAM’s history… uncovering various stories of product developments became really fascinating……there is potential for a movie in here......sometimes product technology became useful for astronauts, music listeners at home, doctors, in flight entertainment, slow motion on tv… it’s a lot about breaking conventions and expectations and tryin out new things, trying to find solutions whatever problem there is … also about cooperations between people in Japan and USA…..which brought back my own memories of a job I had in the 90s working for a New York glove manufacturer…….the article is now going to be translated too… the German version is free to read now as an „editor’s selection“.
Oct 6
I will be playing a set between around 0:30 and 2:00 at Gebäude 9 on Pathfinder & Basswerk Halloween 2022! Its the first time after Corona I will play again...and there is a lot of new stuff to hear...possibly also new stuff with Kingz...tracks of an upcoming 25 Years of Basswerk compilation.
Oct 4
On www.lowerbreakbeats.de. and www.sound.report
you can find both pages a bit more polished now.....and a lot of new videos, including one very experimental session treating drums with Landscape TT. On sound.report there are also reports about Norand Morphos and Korg Volca FM2 + NTS-1.

Lower Breakbeats is makin more waves....I‘ve got a lot of space in Synthesizer-Magazin to explain special techniques with SP-404, EMU SP-1200, 1010music stuff, Squarp Rample, Qu-Bit Data Bender and more. Check the new issue of Synthesizer-Magazin! It‘*sd an 8 page report and its mentioned on the front page (german only). www.lowerbreakbeats.de.
Sep 23
It’s my way of doing things ever since things became to weird and impersonal - with every basswerk label release I will add a contribution. BW48 brings two great jungle tracks from Brian Brainstorm…my remix started slowly, but then also something faster evolved, so tI added two versions, one that keeps it slow and the other one (which I prefer) which balances things out…(part of Lowe Breakbeats project, supported by Musikfonds e.V/ Neustart Kultur). Also the Baltes & Zäyn TGM Lower Breakbeats Rmx got released Sep 9. Check www.lowerbreakbeats.de.

We heard that basswerk has been voted one of the top3 labels on „new“ german D&B awards. An event/ a ceremony took place in Dresden Aug 26 where I couldnt attend but sent a video. They have a page, but I find the infos are a bit hard to access or not there.

Two more videos up for „Pulses“. One is generating a rhythm with ALM Pamela‘s Workout layering various rhythms over each other that come from unusual clock divisions with delays and help of an Euclidean tool. Sound is derived from various WMD and Mutable Instruments drums, effects and other modules (Mutable Instruments Beads, Grayscale Supercell, FX Aid, Dreadbox Eudemonia, Bastl Cinnamon).
https://youtu.be/0PpE-h9emas

September 9: My track „F*** Sentimental“ came out on Revolver-Sounds „Gun Talk“, a compilation also featuring Veak, Junx, Mad Vibes, Bassface and more.... It was produced in March. Back then, the help of Musikfonds/ Berlin/ Neustart Kultur helped me a lot.
https://open.spotify.com/track/0R11HcDVLhMEQs4lhbOROz?si=bd6e9405c8084bca
September 9th: I started releasing „Ambiences of the Day“ under my real name. I was very sad that my father gave away the old Grotrian Steinweg Grand Piano I learnt on, but I was able to sample it for a few hours before it went away. I have been working on the material and have created two ambiences with it so far. One is heavily working with Mutable Instruments Beads, the other one also, but mainly incorporated a self-tuned sampled instrument. I have learnt how to microtune all my instruments now using oddsound MTS-ESP suite, which I also reviewed in professional audio.
Whatever you do is a result of everything that happened before. However weird it may have been.

I like working with video, this is motivating. I have pictures in my head when i listen to music....this one wasnt easy, but we wanted to make it happen...so we made the efforts....thanks, Phil!

Oct 31st: Our regular basswerk event didnt take place due to COVID #19. That‘s a shame cause we couldnt do it last year either since Gebäude 9 was fully overhauled and we were really lookin forward to it - same as on April 30. This time Sehvermoegen and I did two Basswerk Session/ Gebaeude 9 style videos with my new tracks on Function UK (Junglist Soldier Rmx & Who‘s weird?) So always ask yourself when someone makes you feel crazy: Who‘s the one who‘s really weird? And lets all be a bit weird every now and then.

Fava has also released with Keeno, Klute, Logistics and Seba on Hospital, V-Rec, Commercial Suicide and Spearhead.

Bandcamp also includes some sound examples from my performance under my real name @ Klang & Raum Festival, Koeln, St. Gertrud, November 2019. When performing live, I improvised over it, so this is just the „barebone“ and very raw, but I still like it, so I decided to give this away for free/ pay what you want.

Do April 30... Basswerk x Deegree x Drop That Stream in den Mai .. DJ&VJ performance with Sehvermoegen
Marcel Panne and I have been performing at "Basswerk Sessions" @ Gebäude 9 since 1998 - varying intensities in sound and picture. I'm aware there is a new wave of formatted Drum & Bass "in town", but to me this is what the genre is about (this is 1hr of our stream without the transmission interferences incl many dubplates)
Friday March 7: Synaesthesia Liveact... who am I? Heiner? The Green Man? Philo saw me @ Klang & Raum and asked me to do something between Ambient & Jungle.... I always love that approach... it happened @ Niehler Freiheit...the last event before Corona...it was spooky...we knew it was coming, but we ...just did it one last time.
Saturday Jan 11, Basswerk Session @ Gebaeude 9 Koeln again - feat. Document One. Gebaeude 9 has been totally renewed.
November 17 18h under my real name I performed an Ambient Set @ Klang & Raum/ St. Gertrud. I plan to do more ambient stuff in the future - some tracks do have a soundtrack vibe.
