…the timing…
Time is flying and i had to pin down some deadlines… to say the least: the timing is quite “sportive” for this album… two weeks for finalizing the three “singles” of which one doesnt even exist, two weeks for the ten other songs: arrangement, mixing and putting in some crazy stuff that they still lack… then just one week for everything that still needs work and finally mastering… thats mainly october… please send me encouraging postcards!
Sleepless nights and bloody fingers for YOU. So that YOU can get the album on CD still in NOVEMBER to go xmas shopping with good music in your earpods…
oh, and here is another snippet of stuff under work:

Oh, and some nice guys came over to talk about my music, videos and tech stuff… they filmed some snippets and just cut a (very) short movie… but it seems that i have to add some action scenes myself - at the end when the beat kicks in ![]()

THX for the update Rolf!
We’re really waiting for this new album!
While I was listening to this grest snippet, I imagined a videoclip for it…:)
All the best,
Peter from Hungary
ps: will there be any chance to make remixes for the songs of this new album? Maybe a contest?
If yes I would be interested

Great news
Can’t wait

My girlfriend doesn´t know, what to buy me for Xmas. I told her, that she can buy me your new CD..So you have time to December and I will not wait the almost whole month to hear it
Anyway, great snippets, I´m really looking forward the new album and especially for “Simple things”. I hope all songs will be such great.

New Album in November is indeed great news
I still think the first version of State of Flux - Stretching the Seconds - from Aug 2008 is absolutely brilliant.
How about cheating a bit
and use that as one of the album tracks?
27. September 2012 at 07:12
Maybe I´m not the only one, who hopes, that “classic trance” snippet will be made into whole song
I missed it very much on the previous album, so what about some bonus track on the “high end” limited editon DVD.
27. September 2012 at 12:13
Postcards, you say…
I will be a nie Xmas gift for sure 
27. September 2012 at 15:14
So “Simple Things” is now called “Inner Voice”. If it was due to your inner voice which lead to this track - keep on listening to it. Great mix! Only thing to moan about, for me, are the claps at the beginning. But hey… WOW!
OTOH, the other snippet sounds rather uninspired. Sorry. :/
Please don’t rush things. I’d rather wait another month or two.

Great great great news!
Love the old RMB - stuff, love the new R.M.B - Stuff!
Grüße aus Dresden!

Hi Rolf, the new snippet is amazing!! I hope you will put it on the album in addition to classic trance!
28. September 2012 at 16:50
The new snippet is “okay”, nothing special for me. But I love Inner Voice/Simple Things! Even if all other tracks of the album suck (okay, nobody think so^^), only this track is a reason to buy the album, great work.

Sounds great, but please don’t rush things. Take all the time you need to make this thing sound fantastic!
15. October 2012 at 14:39
My thoughts about the snippet: It begins kind of boring. Just like any other trance song with a melody which you can even guess before hearing the first time as it’s so “standard”.
But after around half a minute the song starts to develop nicely. Anyway I also have to agree with Ptr: Unless you ABSOLUTELY need the money now to buy your new wife something for christmas, no hurry and take your time to finish the songs in the usual Rolf-perfection instead of rushing out “cheap” songs without your typical perfection.

Oh, and cool video, always nice to see how music producers actually produce music - also with some nice hardware
17. October 2012 at 22:56
find ich gut, dass das Album kommt bevor die Welt untergeht.
18. October 2012 at 09:13
..please be asured, i DO take my time with the songs… i already condensed the list from 35 to 14 and everyone of them got a lot of care… and i am still not finished…
i think people liking my faster stuff like STELLARIUM will love this album
19. October 2012 at 02:46
> i think people liking my faster stuff like STELLARIUM will love this album
Ich bin gespannt!
29. October 2012 at 09:56
…thinking of changing the timing… some of the now 13 candidates got so much better the last week, i just want to “up” all of them…
…and i will do more vocal recordings…. and maybe a real cello and some percussion… i´ll keep you informed
29. October 2012 at 22:48
Sounds really great!!!
01. November 2012 at 18:48
In November I had my first solo performance as a DJ and the same day birthday, and then such a gift! Now I wonder if the album will be released by November 17, I’ll play with a couple of your powerful record, because I love all of your music, Rolf!
01. November 2012 at 18:49
As I would like to visit your magical studio in Germany.
03. November 2012 at 20:40
Da bin ebenfalls gespannt. Bin eher durch reinen Zufall auf “Thirteen Stories” gestolpert. Als damals riesiger Fan von RMB war ich aber sofort begeistert. Super Produktion (wer gute LS daheim hat, legt auf so was größten Wert) und eine tolle Instrumentierung, die neue Wege gehen will.
Neben Infected Mushroom’s neuen Player die elektronische Scheibe dieses Jahr für mich. Ok, komme 2 Jahre zu spät, aber lieber zu spät als nie.
Drücke für das kommende Album fest die Daumen!

05. March 2013 at 14:58
Das Lied ist geil. Da ist noch so dieser alte RMB Spirit drin..
05. March 2013 at 15:02
Also das Lied in dem Video mein ich. Das andere auch, aber das im Video gefällt mir richtig gut.
25. April 2013 at 19:54
Hallo!
Auf welchen Album ist dann das Lied von dem Kurzfilm zu finden?
Bitte um Antwort, sehr geiler Track!!
25. April 2013 at 20:29
@Maik: WELCHEN kurzfilm meinst du? Bastis? Berkley 2013 #1? Das wäre dann Song Nr. 13 “Blue Flower”
25. April 2013 at 21:23
Ich denke er meint den Kurzfilm über dich. Das wäre dann “Inner Voice” Song Nr. 1
Album Twenty Thirteen (jetzt gerade ganz aktuell)!
26. April 2013 at 19:48
Hallo!
Ich meine den Kurzfilm über dich…..
26. April 2013 at 21:41
01 u.a. kann mich soch doch jetzt hier anhören (und bei soundcloud)
Das “Simple Things” Layout wurde zu dem Song “Inner Voice” weil noch Vocals dazu gekommen sind…
