Guitar Stories – new album release

Guitar Stories – new album release

The sound of the guitar inspired an entire generation and played a distinguished role in film scoring as well.

Some great examples are the title theme of James Bond 007 played on a telecaster or the usage of the electric guitar sound incorporated in the scores of Ennio Morricone.

My guitar collection albums highlight always a specific kind of style, sound, and performance of the guitar.

“Guitar Stories” represents the 5th album in a series of award winning guitar music released on the artist label ToneWork Records.

This new album combines a wide range of different guitars – Dobro, Fender Stratocaster, acoustic nylon and steel guitars.

The compositions and guitar performances are arranged with soft electronic soundscapes and modern drum kit and hip/hop grooves.

The minimalist ambient pop soundtrack with full mix and underscores tracks offer a rich range of colors to choose from especially for film/TV.

Thanks for your consideration – please stay tuned and enjoy the music.

Yours musically,

Gerhard

I’m quite happy how things are coming along with my new album – the release is scheduled for the beginning of 2022.

The music and sound of the upcoming album is a rebirth of my love for the trumpet and the beauty of an acoustic ensemble playing contemporary classic jazz compositions.

After a lot of hard work, the recordings are all wrapped now and we are in the final stage for completing the master at EBS Productions in the Hansa Studio Complex, Berlin. Recordings for my new album took place at different studio locations. I performed and recorded the trumpet, the guitars and the piano in my own GDM Studio. The drum tracks, played by Adam Nussbaum, were recorded at Topaz Audio Studios in Köln.

Many thanks to everybody who worked with me on my new album and especially to Adam Nussbaum, who did a wonderful job and is a great guy to have on board.

Stay tuned for upcoming news!!!

Yours musically,

Gerhard

The new audio format Atoms is now featured on Apple and Tidal, other streaming platforms will soon follow this new trend.

In the early 90s film music composer and multi instrumentalist Gerhard Daum (Trumpet, Guitars, Piano) released his album “Voiceland” in the Dolby Surround format.
20 years later the music industry is catching up with Dolby Atmos, bringing this higher resolution audio format to the mainstream. Dolby Atmos enables the positioning of instruments in a full 360- degree audio experience.

“The new Atmos audio format is working for all genres – I really appreciate the additional space and transparent sound experience combined with the higher resolution of the audio file.” (Gerhard Daum)
