Tue, 01 Sep 2020 15:29:01 GMT

Even though this was not pre-scheduled as part of the Dynaudio Unheard program at NAMM 2020, we just have to share it!

These talented kids showed up and asked if they could play a song, and since it was in between scheduled acts, we figured "Why not!?" ð ð

Please give it up for Bonfire Blue, as they perform one of The Beatles' absolute classics 'With a little help from my friends'. ð

Dynaudio Unheard | Matt Sorum

Sat, 22 Aug 2020 15:00:00 GMT

This is exceptional! And it's also an exception... Because Matt Sorum doesn't exactly belong in the 'unheard' category!

Having bands like Guns N' Roses, The Cult, Slash's Snakepit and Velvet Revolver on the resume, he is actually nothing but unheard.

We got to chat with Matt for almost an hour at the NAMM Show, and you can watch it all in this video!

Matt just released his book 'Double Talkin' Jive: True Rock 'n' Roll Stories' that supposedly reveals... Everything! Well, in this interview he shares some of those stories (but not all, go get the book!).

Let's just say that one highlight is when he was partially responsible for forcing the members of Metallica on the street in hotel robes due to a false fire alarm... And when asked about what it was like touring with Guns N' Roses in the 90's, he replied: "It was kind of like being on a pirate ship!"

Rigmor - Vægtløs: Dynaudio Unheard at Smukfest 2019

Mon, 25 Nov 2019 09:40:05 GMT

Rigmor creates music inspired by the Danish poet, Michael Strunge's, sly and melancholic text universe. In 'Vægtløs' [Weightless], the fascination for the melancholic and reflective is on display (if you understand Danish). We're sold. The lyrical universe is alluring and delivered with impressive vocals and rawness.

Anton Walter - Stjernerne: Dynaudio Unheard at Smukfest 2019

Thu, 17 Oct 2019 09:05:04 GMT

We think it's safe to say that Anton Walter had a pretty decent Smukfest 2019.

After having performed his massive overnight hit 'Min Dag' in the Dynaudio Unheard touring studio, he dazzled at Live Camp so convincingly that he won Tak-Rock! Talent-Prisen.

And winning Tak-Rock! Talent-Prisen meant that he and the band secured another gig at the festival - and that they could stick around a little longer, making an encore in the touring recording studio possible.

Enjoy.

Kaaliyah - Wicked: Dynaudio Unheard at Smukfest 2019

Thu, 26 Sep 2019 12:00:00 GMT

Pillay is already an accomplished songwriter, having worked with artists such as Christina Aguilera, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Rihanna and many more.

Fri, 20 Sep 2019 11:15:31 GMT

Simone Tang’s past work has mostly flown under the radar in the form of soundtracks to Danish and foreign films, but she’s now breaking through under her own name with a heartfelt, soulful and funky take on 80’s singalong pop. An encore was called for… and given.

Midem 2019: Dynaudio Unheard goes to the South of France.

Nille Nyc currently works on her debut album covering her captivating concept PowerPainPillsPercussion, at Dynaudio Unheard, she put some of the music to the test.

Fri, 30 Aug 2019 12:00:00 GMT

With dreamy synth pads, catchy guitar motives and a smooth name like 'Pelican Beach,' it was hard not to dream yourself away to white sand beaches, pretty drinks and warm weather when the Pelicans entered the Dynaudio Unheard touring studio. (And with the weather being what it was... well... you wished a little harder).

Fri, 30 Aug 2019 12:00:00 GMT

Wed, 28 Aug 2019 12:00:00 GMT

At her Live Camp performance, she took the jury by storm, winning Live Camps Udvalgte [Live Camp's Chosen] and the opportunity to open the main stage at Smukfest. Catch Mekdes full performance in the touring studio here. It's worth it.

Tue, 27 Aug 2019 12:00:00 GMT

Inspired by artists such as Anderson .Paak and Travis Scott, Veremente introduces the American hip hop new wave sound to Dynaudio Unheard, but adds elements from his past as a classical pianist and drummer to his own take on the genre.

Verdens Sidste Idé - Hey, Præst: Dynaudio Unheard at Smukfest 2019

Tue, 27 Aug 2019 12:00:00 GMT

With unruly texts and compositions, Verdens Sidste Idé [The World's Last Idea], has already made its presence known on the Danish music scene. At Dynaudio Unheard the band recorded 'Hey, Præst' [Hey, Priest]. The song is a heavy-hearted, melancholic goodbye to a friend who's passed away; beautifully composed, and performed in just the right pace to make each word have the proper weight, and the horn emphasizing the sadness of the moment. A truly magical performance.

In the Dynaudio Unheard touring studio, Anton Walter, offered a taste of his huge potential - and captured the attention of the audience with a live performance of his debut single 'Min Dag' [My Day].

After his performance in the studio, and winning Tak Rock! Talent-prisen [Thank you Rock! Talent-award] later that afternoon, we suspect Anton Walter won't be relatively unknown for much longer.

Changed Habits: Dynaudio Unheard at HIGH END Munich 2019

Fri, 12 Jul 2019 12:00:00 GMT

Many would probably think not having met your bandmate in person would be a hill too steep to climb... not Changed Habits. When Andy and Lukas arrived for the first day of recording, they had never seen each other before.

They made it work regardless.

Their melancholic melodies entangled with a rough, well-grounded voice tell stories of living in the modern era - combining traditional singer-songwriter traits with electronic beats.

And Kyan's session was... beautiful. Highly soul and RnB inspired, the performance commanded you to think of greats like Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles. We foresee great things from this aspiring artist.

Wed, 26 Jun 2019 13:56:19 GMT

It was easy to see that Alexander Oscar felt right at home in our Dynaudio Unheard studio: his smile, joking with his band, how he interacted with the audience.

But, performing hasn't always come easily to him, suffering from stage fright in the early days of his career. "I just put myself in situations where I had to perform. Shaking legs, breaking voice and all," Alexander said after his performance. "It was difficult, but I had to overcome my stage fright to pursue my passion."

Today there were no shaking legs nor breaking voice - Just tons of enthusiasm and a great pop sound with a grown-up twist.

That's a wrap: Dynaudio Unheard at Midem 2019

Fri, 07 Jun 2019 12:13:20 GMT

The Dynaudio Unheard has went to the Midem music industry festival in Cannes in search of big new talent. And wow… did we find some.

Anyone who’s anyone in the music business goes to the Midem festival. It’s a must-attend event for the suits to do deals, for the start-ups to find new customers, and for the best new talent to find new fans.

We worked with the festival’s Artist Accelerator programme – where up-and-coming talent performs in front of hordes of chequebook-wielding decision-makers at the amazing Midem Beach stage (and we mean amazing; ever seen a stage flanked by superyachts? This is that) – to bring artists into the Dynaudio Unheard studio.

We had reggaeton, jazz, art-rock, sex-positive activism, sun-kissed acoustic vibes, on-the-fly-songwriting masterclass and much more. Above all, we had talent. Massive amounts of talent. If anyone ever says the music industry is in trouble, or that there isn’t enough variety, just send them to the Dynaudio Unheard studio (or our YouTube page) to swiftly change their mind.

Music never rests. We’re happy about that, because we’ll be back in Denmark at Smukfest 2019… and we can’t wait.

Why we built a studio in shipping containers: Dynaudio Unheard at Midem 2019

Thu, 06 Jun 2019 11:26:31 GMT

Dynaudio Unheard is a state-of-the-art touring recording studio travelling in search of the best undiscovered talent … and finding plenty of it.

The annual Midem music industry conference in Cannes is an essential for anyone in the business – whether they’re sitting behind a computer keyboard or an eight-octave one. It’s a place where breakthrough artists go to meet the people who can make them megastars.

But to get heard, you need to record something. And for many artists that’s where the story ends – they simply don’t have the money or the contacts to take that first step.

That’s where the Dynaudio Unheard studio comes in. Artists can use it free of charge to record a live session, then take away their recording and a music video to use wherever and however they want. No catch.

How does Dynaudio make money from this? We don’t. This is all about the artists. We’ve been making speakers for people to enjoy music with for more than 40 years – and we want to give something back to the industry.

Because music never rests.

Why we’re here: Dynaudio Unheard at Midem 2019

Wed, 05 Jun 2019 10:36:34 GMT

Our touring studio has travelled to the Côte d'Azur for the music industry’s most influential event – a place where careers are made.

Midem, in Cannes, is the leading international event for the music business. It’s a place where deals are struck, technology is showcased, big-breaks are granted… and, most crucially, music is celebrated.

It’s about much more than suits. Like Dynaudio Unheard, Midem makes artists a priority through its Artist Hub; Midem Beach showcase stage; masterclasses, panels and workshops; and Artist Accelerator and Songwriting Camp.

And that’s why they’ve asked us to join them with the Dynaudio Unheard studio…

Thu, 23 May 2019 12:43:53 GMT

When Eva and the Vagabond Tales had finished recording in the Dynaudio Unheard touring studio at the 2019 NAMM Show we were sold. Their enticing old-folk sound captured our ears. Hands down.

So when we headed to the beautiful, secluded Joshua Tree National Park for our inaugural Desert Sessions, it only seemed natural to invite them to join us to bring out some of the more eclectic details in their music.

Trevor James Band: Dynaudio Unheard presents Desert Sessions

Dynaudio Unheard: Desert sessions

Wed, 08 May 2019 20:39:47 GMT

"Music is communication. Across cultural lines. Across demographics. Just between people. The greatest thing about this studio is that we get to take it everywhere," says Head Producer at Dynaudio Unheard, Ashley Shepherd.

And take it everywhere we have. From Smukfest in Skanderborg, Denmark to Joshua Tree National Park and the NAMM Show in California, and now HIGH END Munich in Bavaria, Germany. Giving unheard artists the opportunity to get their big break.

Interview with heavy rock duo, Dianthus: Dynaudio Unheard at the NAMM Show '19

Thu, 04 Apr 2019 14:38:30 GMT

How do you transition from classical to heavy; how do you deal with the misconceptions; and how do you judge who'll be a good mentor on the ride?

There are probably few better to ask those questions than Jessica and Jackie Parry. The twin sisters are classically-trained pianists who found an interest in the electric guitar and drums. So much so that they created the heavy-rock/metal duo, Dianthus.

Interview with Eva and the Vagabond Tales: Dynaudio Unheard at the NAMM Show '19

Thu, 04 Apr 2019 10:36:02 GMT

At one point Eva and the Vagabond Tales were more than 20 members. Mostly because lead-singer Eva Mikhailovna had a tough time turning musicians away after an audition.

But with time, the group settled on its current five members; many of whom they met online. We caught up with Eva and the Vagabond Tales to find out how a group of people who find each other online come together to be a creative force.

Dynaudio Unheard at the 2019 NAMM Show

Thu, 28 Feb 2019 15:53:13 GMT

We have build a state-of-the-art pop-up 100% mobile recording studio in a huge cargo container. Why?

Because we believe everyone deserves their big break.

Did you know that the top one percent of artists earn 77 per cent of all record-industry income? A staggering 91 per cent of all artists are completely undiscovered. That’s outrageous. And something needs to be done about it.

We want to give something back. So, we’ve created a state-of-the-art pop-up recording studio and teamed up with a professional producer. We’re going to take it on the road, and we’re going to give that 91 per cent the opportunity to level the balance.

We aren’t going into this blind. We have almost four decades of experience in the professional world – from some of the world’s biggest and most famous recording studios to small bedroom set-ups. Think of your favourite record: chances are that some of our products were involved in its production.
