stereo mixes by juergen schlachter and hellmut hattler for bassball recordings (except "to bed" mixed by christian lohr, "voiceless" mixed by ingo bartsch).
surround mixes and mastering: juergen schlachter.
dvd editing: christoph marquardt /topfloor productions.
dvd authoring: ron geipel/908.

NOTA BENE:
Nine of the 13 "surround cuts" are on a special dvd video (including dts 5.1, dolby digital surround, locic7 and stereo mixes plus visuals) as referrence medium for the new harman/kardon surround systems (for example in the forthcoming mercedes-benz "s-class").
Strange but true.

Hattler has become High-end-class music for the distinguished busy executive! Maybe this can change something (music is a healing source).
But as Zappa once said: "There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something, we'd all love one another".

Review of 'The big flow' from the magazine WOM:


Hattler
The Big Flow
Electro-Funk ( Bassball/Soulfood)

Hätte die Band des großen, blonden Tieftöners ein fettes Marketingbudget im Rücken, wäre ihr eine Dauerresidenz in den weltweiten Charts längst sicher. Und „The Big Flow“ wäre garantiert ihr Multi-Platin-Seller. Weil Hattlers digitale Handarbeit auch innerhalb von geschmeidig-geschmackvollen Songstrukturen zeitgemäß-fortschrittlich und trotzdem in jeder Nuance sinnlich, sexy und leidenschaftlich-funky pumpt. Nie war musikalischer Individualismus chartkompatibler, stringenter, abenteuerlicher und tanzbarer. Wetten, dass sich kommende Hipster spätestens in 10 Jahren auf den Progressive-Soul von Hellmut Hattler und seinen erlesenen Musikern berufen werden?
