Description: For my international "On the wind" project on myspace, I asked several people to write a version in their own language and style for my song. Mindmovie is the first to come up with a beautiful german version called "Mit dem Wind". The german speaking people will notice that is freely translated lyrics are really beautiful and at the same time true to the original. The music is, as we are used from him impeccable. Sara England's emotional singing goes straight to the heart. Amazing work by 2 great artists here on mi7.
Mit dem Wind Mit dem Wind
Ziehst du davon
gehst dahin im Flammenmeer
Feuer brennt so lodernd heiß
und mein Herz, gefriert zu Eis
Du bist fort
in eine andr’e Welt
Und dein letzter Gruß
verweht am Himmelszelt
Nie wusste ich das Morgenlicht
So kalt mir in die Seele sticht
Ich laufe weg
verberge mich
was immer ich auch tu
vergessen kann ich nicht
Die Zeit mit Dir hier Jahr um Jahr
All Dein Trost wenn ich mal traurig war
Auf dem Wind
und außer Sicht
Dein letzter Flug
In’s helle Licht
Das Feuer brennt ich bin allein,
doch am Ende werd’ ich bei Dir sein
Feuer brennt so lodernd heiß
und mein Herz, gefriert zu Eis
Bin alleine...

Although This side is now soooo painfully slow that it is no longer a real funny thing to upload something - here is a new song. Welcome to any visitor who wants to leave a comment about the music. This title features Sara England on vocals - she as well as myself have discovered what it means when you a re trying to build a "house of love" with the wrong person. That's what this song is about.

- synthetic1 — R.I.P.OUIM.net
-
- I was saddened yesterday to discover that a real nice net label that I have released 2 albums on seems to be calling it quits. The label is OUIM they were founded in Bulgaria in 2005 and have consistently offered some very fine electronica from all over the world. The quality is high on every release I have heard from composition to presentation of the final product, with very nice looking cover art and high bit-rate downloads. The label hasn't offered a new release since my early January offering called "Winter EP" and the site says we are closed, sorry. Fortunately all their fine music is still available there to download for free, and I strongly recommend the works highly. For killer modern hard stuff try Death On Glamours LP, and for the most atmospheric ambient check out any of Observation Point's releases. I can only hope, that continued support may bring this fine label back from closure. In the meantime, if someone can recommend a similar net label, I need a new home for my free albums. read more...

- Jan vander Gaag — "Battle of the Platforms" last Saturday 19.04
-
- What a great evening last Saturday in the Sugar Factory / Amsterdam. The first of the "Battle of the Platform" (presented by Mi7 and 365MAG) - which is not really a Battle but much more a great platform to learn more about Ableton LIVE 7, Propellerhead Reason 4 and Cubase but now from the mouth of professional musicians and producers instead of factory product specialists. Thanks to Auke, Chris, Jessy and Cenk Unis ... More about this event soon on this blog ... Ciao - Jan read more...
- Tom Pedroli — East Sussex UK
-
-
I had to go to the UK for a few days. My wife accompanied me this time as she practicaly runs the day to day business. We stay in a beautifull hotel in Buxted East Sussex (Park Hotel). The nature is great and we made some long walks thanks to the good weather conditions. I've been to the UK several times, always by car because of my unjustified fear of flying.
All business is done and a nice colaboration is beeing set up for the near future. Kind of washes away the bad taste of my earlier business problems with my stealing office manager.
I (and my wife) in particular look forward to meeting Mike (Mich56341) on Saturday. Rene and I remixed his Dancing Pidgeon, and Mike added his vocals on our Follow the Bass.
With Mindmovie, who visited us with his wife in the Netherlands last year, we were one of the first to join the MI7 community.
It promisses to be a very good spent Saturday afternoon filled with music, friendship and talk about life in general.

- Jan vander Gaag — MI7 ALIVE Event 2008
-
-
Yesterday, February 10 - for the 3rd time already, the 2008 Benelux MI7 Music ALIVE Event - a great event and meeting spot for professionals and music enthusiasts, a day full of workshops and new product presentations (SSL, Vicoustic, Steinberg, Propellerhead, Ableton) spread over 5 Seminar suites with etc. In the BIG Seminar suite special workshops from: Simon Grey (Propellerhead) about the new Reason 4 and Refills (Abbey Road and Drums), Mr. Friedemann Tischmeyer (Tischmeyer Publications) writer and designer of the famous tutorial DVD's and Books 'Internal Mixing' and 'Mastering' techniques, Renier Vreugde (Teach Music) and Cristoph Stepan (Steinberg) gave continues one-to-one Q & A around Cubase 4 the new Cubase Essential 4 and SEQUEL, Auke Ferwerda and Chris Beemster (Duotone) gave a super workshop about the new Ableton LIVE 7 SUITE + New Ableton Instruments and SSL Mr. Jim Motley about Duende, Pro Convert and the brand new SSL Duende MINI. What really struck me is the enormous hunger of the end-user to learn more about their soft and hardware, special recording techniques for DAWs, the overall professional level of the visitors and the joy they have to talk to other users and people from the industry. For us it's great to offer this platform and meeting spot and to learn how they all use their software and gear in their own unique way.
247 visitors attended the ALIVE Event this time and we all had a great time on this beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon!
Thanks for visiting and hope to see you next year Februari 15 2009!
Special thanks to all MI7 Friends like DIVE and event partners; Teach Music - Interface Magazine - 365 MAG
