All good things

I am writing about all good things in my life. I am in love with puppets, art, music and people who are doing their thing. Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.

Yesterday I finally had the chance to try silkscreen printing on Shirts. My boyfriend’s friend Dennis owns the Cottonclub Textildruckerei in Berlin and invited is to print our own shirts. We made a drum shirt, that is not only for drummers. Big print: BOOM BOOM TSCHACK. I had a great Time an learned a lot of new stuff about printing that I can also use for my linocut prints. Best day of the week! You can buy the shirts on Etsy. https://www.etsy.com/de/listing/285442933/drum-shirt-boom-boom-tschack-sbdrums

BOOM BOOM TSCHACK! This is the process of something really great. Sascha is finally realizing his drum shirt idea. We went to Cotton Club Textildruckerei to get the Shirts done. We were even able to print some ourselves and it was fun. Handprinted Shirts are the best!

This week it’s Studio Thursday instead of Friday.

I am visiting this studio often. Sometimes to play drums, sometimes just to see what’s going on. Actually most times I see something new. If is a student practicing a new song, or the recording process of an album. Sometimes it is even the teacher who is practicing a new drumsolo. @saschabachmann

For as long as I can think, I wanted to learn how to play drums. Every time I listened to a song, it was the drum part that was my favourite. In my early 20ies I finally decided to take some drum lessons. It was so much fun and I was very much in love with this instrument. Unfortunately I never made it in a band. I only played once at Kulturbrauerei with other students from the school. It was “celebration” by Kool & the Gang and it was crazy, because we never had a single rehearsal. I made it though and felt pretty awesome.

After I started to study Kulturwissenschaften I didn’t have so much time for making music any more. I got my degree, moved to New York and stored my drumset at my parent’s place.

2 years later I moved back to Berlin and, of course, ended up falling in love with a drummer. I started to play again, just a little bit. I was lucky to be able to put my drumset in my boyfriends studio and use it whenever I want.  He is a drum teacher as well and helped me getting back into drum mode.

Once a year he is organizing and hosting an event where all his students go on stage, performing their favourite songs infront of their friends, family and everybody who likes live drums. This year I got the chance to play “Build me up Buttercup” by the Foundations and it is definitely the best song I can think of. I played drums, on stage, infront of 150 people. The chance to do this meant a lot to me. I had a blast.

There are so many things I like doing and it’s just great that I don’t have to decide and can pick more than one. Maybe one day I will have a band, who knows. But for now I am quite happy and thanks to the photographer, I finally know my drumface.

I believe everybody should have a pair of Rollerscates. I decided to use mine again on this very nice autumn day.

This is work in progress. I have the honour to do some artwork for Sascha Bachmann's first Soloprojekt HAND. The Album PRODUKT is going to be out in 2016. It contains Tape Loop music and is a very special piece of hand and heartmade music. https://soundcloud.com/saschabachmanndrums/sets/hand
