Joel Wanasek is a music mixer and producer who has worked with bands such as Machine Head, Bless The Fall, Monuments, and more. He is also an incredibly successful entrepreneur, most notably with his heavy music mixing platform, URM (Unstoppable Recording Machine).In short, Joel is one of those people who will work harder than anyone, and absolutely crushes whatever he sets his mind to. And sometimes, some of the things his sights on are incredibly entertaining to observe!One of the examples that we are specifically discussing in this episode is the creation of an entirely fictional band that Joel pretended to produce - and boy, he not disappoint. He released music, promo assets, and did a full Spotify campaign, all while pretending that this band actually existed - and it worked! In less than two months, this fictional band went from 0 streams, all the way to 80k. In this episode of Your Band Sucks (At Business) we discuss exactly how Joel went about marketing this band, and we didn't stop there! This is the 50th episode of Your Band Sucks (At Business) and Joel was the perfect guest to have on for this milestone episode. It's the longest episode we've done to date, and Joel brought his considerable knowledge to the table and he didn't hold back. Getting to pick the brain of someone like Joel for nearly two hours is not something that happens everyday and we can't thank Joel enough for taking the time to lend us his experience, without holding back in the slightest. We hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did! -----Releasing New Music Soon?

Er nahm das Nummer 1 Chart-Album "Preachers of the Night" von Powerwolf in seinem Kohlekeller Studio auf. Kristian "Kohle" Kohlmannslehner arbeitet seit Jahren erfolgreich als Produzent für harte Metal-Musik und macht neuerdings auch mit YouTube Videos und als Gast-Mischer des URM Academy Online-Formats "Nail The Mix" auf sich aufmerksam macht. Er produzierte Alben mit Gruppen wie Hämatom, Powerwolf, Aborted, Eskimo Callboy oder Crematory, die zum Teil sehr hohe Chartpositionen erreichten. Kristian "Kohle" Kohlmannslehner ist in der Metal-Szene weltweit als Produzent und Studiobetreiber etabliert. Sein Kohlekeller Studio wurde vor 20 Jahren gegründet und hat sich in dieser Zeit zu einer Top-Adresse für Metal-Bands aus dem In- und Ausland entwickelt. Außerdem entwickelte mit dem "Grindstein" ein eigenes Effektgerät für E-Gitarren und ist als einziger deutscher Produzent in der URM Academy vertreten. Die Online Recording Schule wurde von den drei US-Produzenten Joey Sturgis, Joel Wanasek, und Eyal Levi ins Leben gerufen. Wer kennt schon die "Statistiken für Nerds" auf YouTube? Im Podcast-Gespräch mit Alexander Schröder betrachtet "Kohle" seinen eigenen Werdegang, die Entwicklung von Sound und Arbeitsweise in dem von ihm favorisierten Genre, beurteilt zukünftige Aussichten der Studioarbeit und gibt fundierte Einblicke zum Mastering von Songs für digitale Plattformen wie YouTube oder Spotify. Dabei geht er dem "Loudness War" aus dem Weg und folgt mittlerweile der Prämisse Lautstärke der Dynamik unterzuordnen. http://www.kohlekeller.de http://www.redfield-records.com
