NATIA & PACO - first concert

Nun ist es also soweit: das erste Konzert mit der wunderbaren Natia aus Georgien im Duo steht an, live am
14.07.2017 @ Sommerfest VHS Stuttgart, Treffpunkt Rotebühlplatz in Stuttgart-Mitte um 18 Uhr.
(siehe auch: Flyer )

Nachdem wir uns vor fast 4 Jahren das erste mal zu zweit getroffen und uns sofort musikalisch verstanden, wertgeschätzt und inspiriert gefühlt haben, entstand daraus ein wunderbares Projekt welches zwischenzeitlich v.a. in Form der aktuellen Album-Produktion mit vielen Gastmusikern ihren Höhepunkt erfährt.
Auf dem Weg dahin geben wir nun eine kleine Kostprobe dessen, was später auf der CD zu hören sein wird...und wir sind so aufgeregt!!

Mein lieber Freund, geschätzte Kollege und P|A|C|O Group Mitglied  Steffen Münster hat eine neue Komposition geschrieben für seine Fusion- & Jazz-Rock-Formation the STEVE CATHEDRAL GROUP mit dem Titel "Merino". Und ein kleiner Teil der P|A|C|O Group war wieder vereint im JaM'in-Studio zu Schwäbisch Gmünd, und gemeinsam produzierten wir dieses kleine Schätzle, zu sehen und hören ab sofort auf YouTube...viel Spaß damit!!

New Year & new Concerts

AUF - in ein neues Jahr voller neuer Möglichkeiten & Chancen, auf ein hoffentlich sicherers Jahr innerhalb dessen wir uns auch nicht mehr von so inflationär vielen Menschen verabschieden müssen wie 2016. Vor allem zu viele meiner persönlichen Vorbilder und Helden mussten leider gehen - mögen neue Helden nachkommen...!!!

2017 soll also das Jahr der Neuanfänge werden, fangen wir doch am besten mal mit ein paar Konzerten an:
den Anfang macht der Gitarrist ANDY SUSEMIHL mit welchem ich 2017 ein paar Konzerte spielen darf...ich freu mich!

Dezember 2016

Gedanken & Grüße zum Jahreswechsel

Zum Jahreswechsel...aber auch in der heutigen Zeit, ob auf den großen Weltbühnen oder im kleinen Kreis der Familie, ist es mir einmal mehr ein Bedürfnis, ein Zeichen und einen lieben Gruß zu hinterlassen an all’ meine lieben Kollegen und Geschäftspartner, meiner Familie und Freunden:

In diesem Sinne wünsche ich euch allen frohe Weihnachten, geruhsame und besinnliche Feiertage, erholsame Ferien und ein starkes und sicheres neues Jahr 2017!!


Auf interessante Projekte, spannende Produktion und die Summe der Möglichkeiten
                                                                                                                          – ich freu mich!!

Mit den besten Grüßen und alles Gute,

Startschuss:  das  Studio CARPE DIEM  ab sofort in Stuttgart / Plieningen

Es ist soweit: ab diesem Monat wird nun mein neues Domizil im P|A|C|O Castle zu Plieningen seine Arbeit wieder aufnehmen - der absolute Wahnsinn!!
Zu lange habe ich nicht mehr kreativ sein und im Studio arbeiten können, aber nun können wir endlich wieder unsere Projekte weiter verfolgen und die Welt mit toller Musik und spannenden Produktionen bereichern.

Den Anfang macht, wie schon mehrfach angekündigt und ihr verfolgen durftet, das Projekt um die wunderbare Sängerin NATIA aus Georgien. Feinste Jazz- & Worldmusic, geschmackvolle Arrangements, mit internationalen Gästen.
CD-Release ist für Sommer 2017 geplant...be anxious, just wait & see...!!
...und weitere Projekte stecken schon in der Pipeline... 

August - Oktober 2016

Nach 10 Jahren und über 60 Produktionen und Projekten in den verschiedensten Genres (Rock/Pop, Jazz, Klassik, Musical, Tanz, Theater, Film, etc.) an denen ich alleine, aber auch mit verschiedenen Mitgliedern der Group arbeiten konnte (siehe u.a. auch unter WORK), bekommt dieses Kreativkollektiv aus Musikern, Technikern, Produzenten und Komponisten Zuwachs bzw. aus aktuellem Anlass ein Update.

Darf ich also vorstellen: die P|A|C|O Group – old & new (Part I)

Juli 2016

Die P|A|C|O Group und das Studio CARPE DIEM bekommen ein neues Zuhause
...und Nachwuchs!

Nach der Gründung der P|A|C|O Group vor 10 Jahren, und nach 5 Jahren Präsenz meiner Homepage im Internet stehen Veränderungen an:

1.   schreiben wir ab sofort auf Deutsch: im Zeitalter von Google-Translater & Co. kann ich mir das
      Leben ruhig einfacher machen.
2.   fällt diesen Monat der Startschuss für ein Projekt, welches vor 10 Jahren seinen Anfang nahm:

Damals gründete ich nach einer harten Fieberwoche die P|A|C|O Group, abgeleitet von meinen bisherigen Betätigungsfeldern als Produzent [P], als Musiker (Artist [A]), Komponist (Composer [C]) und als Organisator (O) der ich bin par excellence.

Der Grund und Hintergedanke entstand aus einem Bedürfnis heraus und meiner bis dato gesammelten Erfahrungen im Musikbusiness, sich mit anderen Freiberuflern und selbständige arbeitenden Musikern zu einer Art Sozietät zusammenzuschließen, um qualitativ hochwertiger und zeittechnisch effektiver arbeiten zu können.

Oder einfach, weil ich kein Freund des Einzelkämpfertums bin und da auch nicht die Zukunft unseres Berufs sehe, sondern es vorziehe und liebe im Team zu arbeiten; Hardware, Ressourcen, Kreativität, Zeit, Wissen und Können bündeln und somit die Summe der Möglichkeiten zu erreichen!

Nach nun 10 Jahren hartem Kampf, vielen Durststrecken sowie Gegenwind in all seinen Formen und welche das Leben so mit sich bringen kann, aber auch schönen und spannenden Produktionen und Projekten mit Kollegen welche zu Freunden wurden, Partnern mit denen man anscheinend alles erreichen kann, und 2. Chancen welche es zu ergreifen galt, heißt es ab sofort: wir sind angekommen, meine Vision bekommt eine eigene, autarke Homebase!

In diesem Monat Juli 2016 fällt also der Startschuss für ein historisches Gebäude von 1773 in Stuttgart/Plieningen, welches ich unter tatkräftiger Mithilfe erworben habe, und wir nun in einem Zeitraum von 10 Monate umbauen, sanieren und renovieren werden.

Dabei werden folgende Räumlichkeiten entstehen, welche der P|A|C|O Group sowie der neu gegründeten P|A|C|O Company, die ab nächstem Jahr ihre Arbeit aufnehmen wird, als kreative Arbeitsplätze zur Verfügung stehen werden, welche ich euch in den nächsten Monaten im Detail vorstellen möchte:

-  5 Projektstudios (Producer-/Composer-Lounges + Infra über 2 Stockwerke)
-  1 Proberaum (ca. 40 qm2, ebenerdig, + Technik, Lager, Infra, etc.)
-  1 Event- & Probebühne / Workshop-/ Seminar- & Unterrichtsraum (ca. 80 qm2, ebenerdig, 
   mit Tageslicht, + Technik & Klavier, Backstage-/Umkleideraum, Lager, Infra, etc.)
-  1 wunderschöner Garten + Grill

Zusammen mit den über die Jahre aufgebauten Kontakten, Studionetzwerken, etc. soll so ein Kreativkollektiv entstehen, welches jedem Anspruch und jeder Idee, jedem Traum, jeder Vision und jedem Bedarf, sei’s aus der Musik, Tanz, Theater, Musical & allgemein der darstellenden Kunst, gerecht werden kann – egal welcher Gattung, welchem Stil, egal welcher Überzeugung!

Mehr soll noch nicht verraten werden, aber es darf sich gerne jeder, der Interesse hat und mit partizipieren möchte, bei mir melden. Wir freuen uns über jede Rückmeldung, über jeden Besuch, über jedes Interesse, und auch über jede Anmerkung, Idee oder Kritik.

In diesem Sinne; auf viele wunderbare, kreative und produktive Proben, Sessions, Gespräche und Konzerte – because that’s what we live for!!!


- euer Paco

It is all very new, very young at the process, a little secret and fresh...but cool because; it’s also very ambitious, working on the highest level with further musical actors from all over the country and different shows we all know.

Paco will be responsible to create the arrangements, to direct and conduct the musicians, and also operates in the team of Conception, Libretto and Stage Direction.

Element-i CD-Project

Another, but much bigger educational project with pupils, managed by Konzept-e für Bildung und Betreuung gGmbH in Stuttgart-Vaihingen in cooperation with the MODERN MUSIC STUDIO; together we produce at the moment a complete album with children songs, arranged and performed by Paco, but are being sung by kids from different element-i daycare facilities all over the south of germany. 

Element-i nurseries are facilities that support and supplement the role of families and provide a stand-alone educational programme. As a result, they offer all-day care and are as flexible as possible, while always maintaining the highest standards and quality.

It will be a funny project, hard to organize to coach and record more than 250 kids, but also for all our hearts and souls. Working with kids is always a pleasure...

Dance-Theater "KENNT IHR BLAULAND?"

On Sunday the 26th of April it is done; the play by Tina Rau & Hans-Ulrich Pohl will perform at the Rudi-Häussler-Saal in Stuttgart/Vaihingen.
And there are still tickets to buy...

A second comeback for Paco, and a promising first collaboration with Sandra Irrgang and her Tanzatelier Vaihingen can be the start of a terrific and succesfull liaison.
I’m looking forward...

March 2015

„Dieter Bohlen“, once more – but this time serious:   JUGEND MUSIZIERT 2015

For the 2nd time Paco is part of the judging panel of 'Jugend Musiziert', a music competition for children and adolescents in Germany on regional, federal and national level which taking place this year from 19.-22. March in Mannheim.
Three days full of high talented and ambitious youngstars on classical guitar and e-bass will be the task to listen to. And the decision is always hard to make. But I’m proud and it makes me happy to support such amazing newcomers, as defined by a great musician and good friend of mine:
„Good students need good teachers!“

February 2015

We go in Big-Band, in Freiberg
with Andi Maile, Eberhard Budziat & Dominik Wagner as special guests

I’m so proud about a really great team I work with; my brother Dominik, Dr. Banse and I done an incredibly hard job to record a whole Big-Band in two days. First we had to change a normal gym and festival hall in a practiacl recording hall by improvising. Then we rocked 12 titles in two days – what a tight recording-scedule! We managed it, dead beat but succesful!

Have a look at the ladies and gents of an exhausting but exciting weekend...

January 2015

A Happy New Year - and what a start!

The new year starts even with a little sensation for me; I'm proud to play 2 gigs with Yasi Hofer on guitar and Martin Klee on drums. The YASI HOFER Band needs on short call a Sub on Bass to play their next concerts and for me it's an honor to play with such great musicians - this band rocks!
Great guitar-music á la Steve Vai, Joe Satriani and Jeff Beck is the task. It will be hard, but I'm sure it will be fun...    

...and it was! Thanx for such big fat "possibilities"!!   :-)

YASI HOFER Showreel
Have fun with a great rocking, good looking and really virtuous playing band!

More off such bands and music...I'm prepared!

December 2014

Happy X-Mas!

We wish you all sensual, reflective and full of relish Christmas days!
May all of you be in luck, becoming luck, bring and share luck in all areas of life!
Peace to the world and only the best - celebrate!!!

"Find light in the beautiful sea
I choose to be happy
You and I, you and I
We're like diamonds in the sky
You're a shooting star I see
A vision of ecstasy
When you hold me, I'm alive
We're like DIAMONDS in the sky

Shine bright like a diamond 
Shine bright like a diamond" 

(Josef Salvat, Diamonds) 

November 2014

The MODERN MUSIC STUDIO showcase at the SPIELMESSE Stuttgart

We present us in cooperation with PIANO FISCHER at the Spielemesse/Stuttgart from 20. - 23.11.2014 at hall 1 stand 1J51. Visit us to get informed about our creative services and to get to know us and our philosophy about to work and experience all around music.
The MODERN MUSIC STUDIO - more than just a sound & recording studio!

October 2014

Another month, another band...by and by it runs like an assembly line:
the STEVE-CATHEDRAL-GROUP recording their debut-album called "Distand Light" at the MODERN MUSIC STUDIO . 
Fusion-Jazz/Rock like Pat Metheny, Eric Johnson or Fourplay is the task. But it goes unique, because the Quartett of mastermind Steffen Münster on guitars and compositions are extended with a String-Quatett. A special sound of a special line-up...so, all in all a very special album we have to produce. We are so excited... 

Additional Paco is on-again responsible for the Artwork-Concept. So we are double-exicted about the results... 

September 2014

It is done; the MODERN MUSIC STUDIO and the MODERN MUSIC CENTER re-open their doors and this happening we have to celebrate.

On October the 10th we arrange a "Open Day" in our new residence and all students, colleagues, friends and even all musicians are invited to gaze and adore our new possibilities!
We are simple the best!   :-)   ...and very proud about 3 months of a big removal and really hard work pressed for time! To move and rebuild a studio is not even the same like to move a normal household.

Well done, Chimps!!

August 2014

This month is a relaxed month; the MODERN MUSIC CENTER is closed and the entire team are in school-holidays. The right time for wonderful and soulful cover-music played by a small but fine band called VIERTAKT from Stuttgart.
The guys are recording a demo for their homepage and we're going quite easy to do this job...

July 2014

Turkish lyrics with turkish influences and turkish backgrounds - and the band rocks like guys of the old school! Damn it, what a hot sound...   

May 2014

Bigger, better, smoother!!!
The MODERN MUSIC STUDIO & the MODERN MUSIC CENTER are moving, the 2^nd time for me in one year, but the the game is worth the candle.
Up across 100m² arise 5 stand-alone Studiorooms, full cross-linked but acoustic shielded for the best work-flow we ever dreamed of to work all the time on the highest level.
No matter what’s the task, there is always a specialist and room at the MODERN MUSIC STUDIO with the operational ability to bring out the best results - and a dream comes true for me! Yeah   :-)

To take an idea of it...please click here:                            "...and the boys are coming back to town!"

He will extend the current technical staff because he is amongst others an expert in live-recording.
All in all Thomas is a big profit and very good friend and we’re proud of having him in the Group…!!

September 2013

Long-time friend, bass-player and writer Alexandra Krings from Cologne will release their new cd-project titled “The Hockey Project”.
It is a series of three CDs featuring compositions and arrangements about and inspired by hockey.

Alexandra about this ambitions project:
“If you think about “The Zamboni Song” , you’re wrong – think horns and strings and Jazz played with a rock attitude. Like a direct shot on goal.
More than ten gifted musicians from the Germany and Toronto have contributed to this album, and I am very happy to get Alec Fraser, one of Canada’s best sound engineers, to mix it! The first of three CDs contains four tracks and will be released in March 2014.”

Paco will be involved to remix and add some musical ideas to one of Alexandras’ songs called “Overtime”. It is another kind of work to do but we’re very proud to be asked to.

Gunther Rall, german songwriter, musical-composer and piano-player has recorded his first CD at Steinheim - german speaking songs composed and performed by his own. Powerful emotional tunes inspired by nature-affinity and human kindness.
Now this personal album is released and the experts are listening; the Südkurier wrote a great cd-review, the Südwest-Presse and SZBZ published an interview about the former cabaret artist, and the maestro himself, Konstantin Wecker, shows interest, too!

On YOU TUBE you can make your own mind…

Eight wonderful musical pearls, produced and recorded at the Jam-In and Carpe Diem Studios, packed in a sophisticated and ambitious artwork design by Patrick Münster now rolling into the world.

September 2012

At time P|A|C|O Group members Dominik Müller and Dominik Bauer are working on a big and ambitious project for which all involved persons needs good condition and patience.

Since last month the classical Saxophone-Trio „SAXODIE“ are recording with our guys all 6 Trio-Sonatas (all in all 18 parts!) of Johann Sebastian Bach (BWV 525-530) which was original composed for Organ. Place of action is the concert hall of the School for Music in Krumbach which has the perfect acoustics for this special style of music.

Untill next year SAXODIE-members Günther Beugel, Eliane Übelhör, Karolin Wirth and the production team will be busy doing this monumental double-album. We will provide you up-to-date info about this exciting project…

August 2012

What a joyful month, the Group-Family is getting bigger and bigger; now founder Patrick ‘Paco’ Müller became a proud and happy Daddy, too. One “surprise”-girl see the light of day at August the 19th. Congratulations and all the best, also to the brave mum. And the next P|A|C|O Group Babys are already waiting in the wings…

July 2012

The association of the “Württemberger Ritter” have a busy but exciting year; on top of their current tourney-events they have become Champions of the German Knighthood 2012 – Congratulations!

Additionally the Knights produced a Teaser-Trailer about their big tourney- and battle-shows which can be seen on YOU TUBE. The music that Paco composed and produced for their tourneys last year is also used in the Trailer and can be listen to here...

June 2012

Last month we got an enquiry from VOITH, the worlwide operating mechanical engineering industry-corporation to write a music-arrangement for their opening-show of the
"Voith Group Conference 2012".

Unfortunately we are working our pants off with our dance-show TRÀGON, so Marcus Theinert of the JAM-IN-Studios in Schwäbisch Gmünd took this substantial contract work.
He’s done a really great job an we’re proud of having him in our Group… 

May 2012

''TRÁGON – Tanzen ist Energie''
...is the title of a new show produced by Paco and his Group. A purely danced show combining three different styles, as there are BALLET, TAP-DANCE and FLAMENCO.

Since last year Paco has created a ''Tim-Burton''-like script with adorable, funny and also really bizarre characters.
This comical story is about a current issue of our contemporary Modern Society: hobgoblin-like creatures are stealing the essential energy of the people’s lives, in our story of the residents of a famous circus. And so they lose decreasingly more and more time – time for themselves, time for their talents, time for their families and friends.
The situation is getting increasingly hopeless, would’nt it be for the youngest of the circus, the heroes of our story, the kids, who carry the solution in their hearts, but above all in their feets…

For all that Paco composed 18 pieces of classical-, minimal- and film-score-like music for an extended orchestra with solists. He’s found an incredible team of creative and artistic choreographers and dancers coming from our different styles Ballet, Tap-Dance and Flamenco. So next year he’s going to perform a unique dance-theatre with awesome choreos and dances, with an impressive light-show, great costumes and - of course - with wonderful music!

We hope you are curious about the show and will provide you with up-to-date info over the next months on this website, until it says: “Dance, dance – or you are lost!” (Pina Bausch)

April 2012

Gunther Rall is a German musician and composer of a very comical piano-cabaret-programm called “Mann-am-Rand”. He toured over the last years all over Germany. 
Now he is recording his first singer-songwriter-album and Paco is the man to produce him. Only a man and his piano - for big Randy-Newman fan Paco a great challenge and possibility of working in a totally “dry” context. We’re already very excited about the future results of this unique collaboration…

February 2012
A few months ago Paco received the special honor in being asked to contribute a couple of lines for the book
“WHY I PLAY BASS” by “Bass Musician Magazine” writer Martin Simpson. Now the book will be published including four music-CDs. On CD 3 there will be a composition by Paco called “PACO” (!) taken from the debut-album of his old fusion-jazzrock band PLAYSTATION.

So now he’s really in good company with such great bassheads like Billy Sheehan, Pino Palladino, Sting, Stanley Clarke and many more Bass-Players Martin has interviewed during the last years.             

Paco’s text is on page 24 with a great picture on page 155.
Here you can get in contact with the magazine or even order this exciting book…      www.bassmusicianmagazine.com

Now the team restarts working on the next songs of this awesome Hip-Hop-Show with a live rock-band, telling about 3 guys and their musical revolution in a casting-show-contaminated musicworld…

April – October 2011

A totally different kind of music is the current jazz/pop/classical-project of Anselm Nadj and Steffen Münster.

The P|A|C|O Group produce this one of a kind chamber-music-like ensemble and especially the art-work will be a big challenge that we are really looking forward to. Because the concept is anchored in the turn of the century and borrows from the “Surrealism” in art and poetry. 
It's a bucket full of work – but that's just the way we like it!!
