About Me

Here I am, finally I managed to upload a few pictures and write a few words so you know who I am and what I do (in case you care...smile). I work for a couple of companies which produce musical instruments. My main employer and sponsor is Harman Music Group/DigiTech. I am on board since the year 2000. I travelled around the world a couple of times conducting clinics, playing workshops and concerts using various Digitech products. On top of that I am endorsed by Framus and DR handmade strings. There are many things around this job which never meet the eye but keep you from playing guitar such as travelling, preparing manuals, preparing tours via phone and email....well I think, no let me rephrase that I know (!!!) I have a busy day. Whenever I can spare a minute I work on three projects.1. The art of Pop - which is my upcoming release 2. Otis Shredding - this will be released wihtin 2007 3. Calmly Angered - another CD with Originals (I stole this title from a friend of mineThese 3 projects are all recordings with original music. Otis though is a CD full of twisted versions of melodies and themes you all know...as the titel suggests it, it will be a CD full of guitarplaying and loads of fun.I generally love the element of fun and joy in music and this is why I stick with it. On top of the own music and working for the music industry I do work as a studio musician. You can always go to my webpage rj-guitar.de and listen to a few apetizers.Back to my person: I love sports and outdoor activities. I love being surrounded by none technical sounds maybe in the forest or at a river in the hills. When was the last time you were out there, laid down on your back and closed your eyes and did nothing but listen to the sound that is surrounding you. It is hard these days because everything became so loud that you will very likely hear civilization sounds on top of the natural ones. If you have the chance...this is my cure for stress relief. On top of that and now I drop my pants completely I love cooking.....oh my....I said it I wont take it back....
