Arggghh! Today I read some news by Emilio. The new album will be mixed and produced by Stefan Kauffmann.  Oh no, not again!   I just hate the sterile and clean sound world. I just hope they would try a new style: play the songs live like on Accept Death Row album and then catch the sound and that's it. |

I`ve written a mail to Roxx-Studio a month ago or something like this...to Mr. Kaufmann,*g*!
I`ve told him (I think in the name of many fans) that we dislike
1.) the work on the website (news and so on)
2.) the solos Igor plays (like John has written in an other topic: we know he can make it better - he always shows his skills live!!!)
3.) the production is to sterile (live the sound really kills - why not on CD?!?)....There are many Kaufmann productions which kicks more A.. (e.g. Solid, Timebomb, Death Row, Thunderball,...or Bootlicker from Vanize)....
4.) we need a REAL Drummer on the records!!!
These where the things I`ve written to him....no answer...I think, there will never ever one,*g*
But - no problem, if they recognise that many (die-hard) fans are not satisfied with some IMPORTANT things - and so they gonna change it in the future....
We will see, what happens in the future...we only can hope and pray,*g*

One thing I have to mention:
I don`t want to change the band - because I love it (in my opinion the songs are great - although the production is sterile, like on Mission) ... and for me it`s the best band of all.
But if I hear the records (sterile, drumcomputer and so on) - I could cry...when I compare it to the sound of older Kaufmann-records or productions of other bands...
I always think: U.D.O. is god - but how strong could they be, with a killer drum, great metal-soli and a heavy production?!?
Ok - I think, you know what I mean,*g*!!!

i'm with you my brother!!! i agree with everything you wrote!! you may not get a response from him, but you may have at least planted a bug in his brain to make production better and more alive sounding, instead making it sound to sterile and clean. let's just hope!

Great! The sound on the last two albums weren't that good (or better: the sound sucks). I really appreciate Stefans work for U.D.O./ACCEPT, but please...MAKE THE SOUND HEAVY AGAIN!!!!

And I agree with you John about that bug-thing... Udo and Stefan can see that we don't even think to leave them although we are not pleased at 100%... We just want to help them with our lines to make a better band. So work little bug, work... |

Of course, Rikke let's do that. What is your conception?

I am not saying what Jörg Michael said about mr. Kaufmann as person, but I think it is a little bit hard to affect on Kaufmann. Udo on the contrary is more fan friendly.  |

Great idea, Rikke!
Does anyone know, what we can do?
It wouldn`t be necessary if the band would look at this site...but so:
How can we show them what could be "done better"?
