Carl Cleves & Parissa Bouas

Carl Cleves & Parissa Bouas come from Australia. Their fame Down Under is considerable. Parissa's angelic voice comes close to an invitation; that is, one from water nymphs and ancient dwellers of the woods of mythology. Carl's warm voice and his guitar-playing make sure that the angels stay in safe contact with Celtic folk tradition. Their first album on Stockfisch is released in July 2010, named "Out of Australia".

The Endless Highway

Stockfisch´s first documentary film "The Endless Highway": We filmed at various locations which had been important in the artist´s life of Allan Taylor: Brighton, London, Brussels, Amsterdam, Paris, concerts, recordings … . Allan about this film: "What we aimed to do was to make a film about a travelling troubadour, how he gets his ideas for songs, how he writes songs, how he plays the concerts and how he travels from city to city." Fore samples from the film and an interview with director Patrick Ferryn look here.

Sebastian Sternal Trio

A new jazz trio recording on Stockfisch: Pianist Sebastian Sternal, who 2007 moved for a year to Paris in order to study at the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse, wrote pieces for this album as a tribute to this city. Together with Sebastian Klose (b), and Axel Pape (perc), the trio introduces a special guest from Paris: Anne-Marie Jean. With her versatile voice, she, as a Frenchwoman, lends a special authenticity to this city portrait. SACD from March 30 - also as vinyl...

Duo Balance

Stockfisch has just released an extraordinary CD "Voyage - d´une îsle a l´autre": Louis Capart, songwriter from Britanny, played a selection of his songs supported by Duo Balance, who already had performed pieces by Louis Capart on their CD "Blütezeit" .

Gergely Bogányi

Stockfisch-Records´ good connections to the classical music scene in Hungary yield another sounding fruit: Gergely Bogányi, one of the best Hungarian pianists of these days, was so affected by the recent piano-recordings from Northeim, that he decided spontaneously, to record all of the 21 Nocturnes by Frédéric Chopin. This recording is just finished and will be released as a Double-SACD-Hybrid.

Stockfisch Records is specialised in recording guitar sound. Especially in collaboration with MANZANITA GUITARS, skillful luthiers from Germany, a guitar collection of reliable studio instruments developed over the years.

Allan Taylor - IN THE GROOVE

Within the next weeks Stockfisch will release another audiophile 180g-Vinyl-LP as start of a new series: IN THE GROOVE.

Allan Taylor comments: "I thought the vinyl format was finished. However, since I have been recording with Stockfisch Records and working with Gunter Pauler I have become used to the supremely high criteria the work to, so when they suggested that we choose a few songs of mine from our catalogue for a release on vinyl I thought it was a great idea."

Dennis Kolen

And again a new discovery by Stockfisch-Records: Dennis Kolen is a young singer/songwriter from Rotterdam/The Netherlands.

He grew up with the music of his fathers Vinyl collection: Jackson Browne, James Taylor or Paul Simon had been Dennis´ musical vision and orientation. Above all his influences came from the protagonists of the West Coast Music in the seventies: The Eagles, Poco, Crosby,Stills & Nash… - listen to the great harmony vocals on this SACD!

Beoga

In August 2010 Stockfisch will release another album from their LIVE AT STOCKFISCH STUDIO series - this time an Irish band had visited Northeim: "Beoga". Beoga (Irish word for ‘lively’) have become one of the most popular and influential ensembles in modern Irish music. From the beginning Beoga was endowed with massive musical talent, featuring the twin dueling accordians of Damian McKee and multi-instrumentalist Seán Óg Graham, pianist Liam Bradley and four times All-Ireland bodhrán champion Eamon Murray. In 2005, the lineup was complete, with the addition of Niamh Dunne, one of Ireland’s premier young talents, on vocals and fiddle...

David Munyon

Good news for all friends of David Munyon´s music. He will visit Germany again in summer 2010 to play some concerts. Read the tour list here: German Tour 2010

STUDER Vista5

Stockfisch-Studios always try to follow the latest developments in audio equipment - after long periods of testing and listening. In August 2009 we installed a new mixing desk: the STUDER Vista5. After a few days of backfitting now we are proud to use one of the most renowned mixing desks auf the audio scene.

Sara K. in studio

A great small jazz band, a legendary American composer and marvellous sound – it was a year ago that this mixture created one of the most remarkable sound recordings, the Direct-to-disc-Cut of the bassface swing trio and their tribute to Gershwin. Could things become any better than this? Hard to imagine, but true: The Bassface Swing Trio again, this time featuring singer Barbara Bürkle, a fine selection of Cole Porter jazz tunes entitled Tribute to Cole Porter. The Stockfisch sound engineers mixed the sound of seven microphones in an analog mixer to a stereo sum. The musicians played two sets of four pieces - live, there were no edits or digital tricks involved.
