TRINITY XPERIMENT - ANAESTHESIA
Trinity Xperiments second album-production ‚Anaesthesia’ is still a benefit from the deep source of improvisation as ‚Honeymoon on Mars’ was before, but appears much more concentrated and well-defined as self-contained short stories under one big umbrella.
It took quite a long time for getting the best results out of all the different involved parties to archieve the tremendous complexity of the whole thing. Particularly grateful we are for the awesome drum playing of Jost Nickel and the hot tempered Violin of Neyveli S. Radhakrishna on ‚Madras’ who formerly worked with the legendary Ravi Shankar.
For a maximum of deepness and improvement in sound the entire material went through a big old 64-channel SSL 6000 E Console located in Renaissance Studio Cologne. With passion and dedication our fifth Beatle and magus of tone Thorsten Rentsch spend a lot of time to get the best out of the deep of the tracks. A lot of mixes later we finally accomplished the greatness of this sophisticated narration. Welcome to something really different.

TRINITY XPERIMENT
is a studio project based on well prepared as well as freely celebrated improvisations. Drum machines and sequencers as helping tools will always be replaced or supplemented later on by a living drummer (Marco Minnemann, Jost Nickel, Angelo Kelly). Guest musicians like Holger Czukay of CAN or Neyveli S. Radhakrishna (Ravi Shankar) are joining TRINITY X for special sounds and atmospheres.

SPECIAL GUESTS

Jost Nickel, (Matalex, Triton, Disco No. 1 – Jan Delay) our good old friend of golden MATALEX/TRITON-times already played drums on ‚Honeymoon on Mars‘. On ‚Anaesthesia‘ he again prooved his brilliant skills.

Neyveli S. Radhakrishna – ex-Sideman of Ravi Shankar – came to Timelock Studio/Cologne on a sunny afternoon. Radha played with incredible enthusiasm and gave blood to our piece ‚Madras‘ – the result is simply wonderful!

Marco Minnemann (Steven Wilson, The Aristocrats, Joe Satriani) – his drum-playing on ‚Honeymoon on Mars‘ is simply extraterrestrial …

Holger Czukay, co-founder of legendary Krautrock-band CAN took his horn out of the case, checked the sticky valves and did not want to hear a single note before he started. His crazy contribution is to hear on ‚Weater is Changing‘ (HoM)

Angelo Kelly (The Kelly Family, Angelo Kelly Band, Billy Cobham), the first guest we were able to welcome to our young project played drums on our first release „Dinner for Jeff“ – The Loner – Tribute to Jeff Beck (2005)
