Greetings from Lunapark,

Marian & Martin

I am wondering what Alphaville is doing and if they are doing well? Hey, Marian, we haven't heard all that much from you recently! I hope that's a good sign...you guys being really busy in the studio so we can enjoy a new album soon...? I am impatiently waiting for an update on how everything's proceeding.

Marian:

Yes, we're doin' well and all the pieces seem to come together finally but not too late :-) Actually, I think this is going to be a really great production. There were lots of things we've always wanted to do and most of those suggestions now live in the songs and add amazing colours to the music. When our last album "CrazyShow" was a vast collection of raw ideas, a kind of screenshot into a musician's mind, "Giant" will be a complete and totally accomplished production, a take-it-or-leave-it thing, so to speak. And, yes, the title of the the album is still the one you all know so well but, who knows...

I reckon there will be a few snippets of the music at our website soon. How much this will tell you of the new album I don't know but I hope it'll be enough to enliven your curiosity. Besides I expect that we manage to keep the bigger part of Giant in secret until its release although we all know this is a difficult task these days. In March I will spent some time again at Martin's studio in London with the emphasis on keyboard-arrangements, instrumental solos and backing vocals. There will be lots of bv's this time and generally "Giant" will be far more complex concerning vocals then the last couple of albums.

Jan:

Btw, there have been several other projects in the pipeline over the last years that we haven't heard of again. I am wondering what has happened to the Opera with Marian singing/playing the envoy...(has there been a performance? Is there a recording?)

Marian:

Yes, the title was "L'Invenzione Degli Angeli", if I remember it right. Klaus Schulze, who wrote all the the music for the opera, finished the mixes about three years ago. Sounded damn great to me. But there seems to be no interest from the side of the record company in releasing the stuff. Still I doubt the last word has been spoken on this project.

Jan:

How are things for the Alice in Wonderland musical?

Marian:

This is a kind of sad story because I invested a lot of enthusiasm into that project and it was already announced in the bill of fare of the Theatre W]]> Sat, 28 Feb 2009 18:42:15 +0100 http://www.alphaville.info http://www.alphaville.info Jan:

Today we started another production session for guitar-overdubs and vocals in Davy Goodes' studio. The album should be ready for mixing by mid November.

However, the final mix will not be done until negotiations with record companies have been concluded.

Best wishes from London

Marian, Martin and Dave

Just drop an e-mail, we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Please mind that this is a business account only and due to be able to concentrate on organizing live shows please understand that fan requests can not be respected.

We enjoyed performing in Russia, France, Singapore, Brazil, USA, Germany, Hungary and Sweden - to name just a few, and we are doing our very best to be able to return plus to visit all the places we have not been to yet :o)

Hence please don't ask us when we are going to play in your town - as soon as a concert is confirmed we announce it right here.

You'll be the first to know...promised!
