The Past - a website (hi)story...
Once upon a time, back in 1992, when christa came up with the name ,we decided to call our little cellar studio in the
Lindenstr.32 in Köln, "les enfants terribles "whitch means something like ,
"
the terrible kids " [ɑ̃ˈfɑ̃ teˈʀibl] .
Im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch wird er begütigend-ironisch für Außenseiter oder Exzentriker verwandt, die durch unangepasste oder zügellose Handlungen auffallen und andere mitblamieren.
We were one of the first music studios in cologne using
Protools and an Apple Macintosh to record 16 harddisktracks simultaniously and synchronized
the computer with 2
ADAT 8 track Digital recorders later on. We had successful and exiting times with meeting all the different artists from all over
the world and did some great cooperations with some major
damage and independent labels during that period of time .
I registered the domain name let.de in
1997 , the internet was young and growing a new virtual playground for artists and collaboration was born.
After some of my Partners and Labels went bankrupt ( broadcast.com was sold for 2 billion u.s. dollar at this time ) and the music industry was shrinking ,because people wanted to "free download" music , instead of buying too expensive CDs or records
and i was so fed up, arguing with A+R (Artists and Repertoir Manager ) from formally "Big Players " about WHAT SELLS and they would not believe us that the internet and a new concept from
apple called
itunes would kill them.
