Paiste Mikrophonie Gong Gong Duet - NO TALKING!

I am still in the process; which Mikrophone Gong will I choose?

I had a tiny little moment of time at the Paiste workshop with less gong hammering and I wanted to get a glimpse of the different spaces the two Mikrophonie gongs were able to open up.

I stayed with a specific type of playing, the great ambient-swell-layering (which by the way is my fall time favorite gong playing technique) for various reasons: I didn’t do a spectrum of techniques, besides the limited time; (every minute in the Paiste Lab is like a golden moment in the flow of eternity) and as well; the environment has been designed to measure frequencies spectrums of gongs rather than their sound crescendos,.....

And above all excuses, I deeply apologize to disrespect the universal law set up by the great Michael Bettine who says: Any new gong needs minimum to be tested with the 48 different major kinds of mallets before one can even dare to start speaking on the sound character of a gong.

As well; I was operating with my new „road recording equipment“ which is a
Camera: Panasonic DC-G 110
with an added microphone: Sennheiser MKE 440
on top of the camera
and I had no idea at all, how this microphone would respond.
(actually, I am very happy with the result, I think its a perfect Stereo Dogma mic that will be very useful for spontaneous field recordings.
Please feel free to communicate with me what you think about this microphone.

AS WELL, I am absolutely aware that many people will demand a much stronger playing/banging of the gongs!

The other day, just recently, one famous guy was even saying that Jens is the weakest gong player on planet earth!!!!

Well,….he probably didn’t see me playing in the good old days with my band the STAR SOUNDS ORCHESTRA, I do have many memories of playing very very loud, because the stage setup happened in the center of a 200 000 Watt Sound System in front of 40 000 people +,…….many times,…..and this has been soooooo loud that no one can even imagine the authentic meaning of louder than the loudest.

But today for many reasons I decided to favorite the kind of playing I am presenting with the Mikrophomie Duet, which is celebrating the great cosmic ambient swell layering, it is my favorite way of playing gongs for many reasons,

BUT, as I think about it; I feel pretty much miss disturbed and embarrassed by this shameful rumor claiming that I am the weakest gong player on planet earth
and I make a decision as follows.

As soon as I will see 10 000 subscribers on my Youtube channel; I will give a video proof with a DB - meter that shows that with no doubt I am the STRONGEST ( in terms of loudness ) - gong player on planet earth.
I will play so loud, that even the great Yogi Master B. will incarnate immediately and try to play louder! but he will desperately fail and give me his white turban.

So if you like to see this happen, just subscribe to my Youtube channel right now and tell your friend to do the same, they will tell their friend to do the same,….in order to support me to get back my reputation as a serious gong guy.
I will even start to extend my daily morning QI - FU training routines with next level loudness routines; I will not care how my neighbors will feel about it; I am on fire! I feel like a wild horse ready for the race! But without your help, I can not! Please don't let me down!
Till then I will have to enjoy the status quo of being the softest, smoothest gong player in this solar system.
