We caught up with Pat Buhler who along with his business partner Nicky von Koller has started up myrockout.com a new website which aims to connect musicians and industry professionals across the globe.

M: Why did you decide to start the website?

P: Well I had the idea itself for quite some time simply because as a promoter myself organising gigs, I always thought it was too tricky to find new bands in the sense that you have to go on different websites, you have to go through all sorts of...

We caught up with Michael Bastholm Dahl and Michael Stützer from Artillery recently…

 M: Over your illustrious career, what changes have you experienced in the music industry?

MS: The way you Can use the internet Today have made the promotion of the band very easy, the recordings in the studio with All the new digital equipment has changed the way you record today  and the low sales of CD’s and vinyl compared with the eighties has forced a lot of bands to tour more.

M: What bands ar...

Hammerfight's new album 'Profound and Profane' is out now.


M: At what point did you decide to become a working musician?

We caught up Fernando from Moonspell just before this years tour…

F: It’s changed a lot and we've been on the scene for long enough to actually witness and be a part of some changes, many changes.  There’s stuff that we like and then there’s stuff that got lost in the process but everything transformed itself from the nineties when we were playing you know it ...

M: How would you compare the music industry now to when you first entered it?

W: I would say that the music industry now is definitely a lot smaller than what it used to be.  It’s a lot more guarded as far as who is involved and as far as who gets chances and who doesn’t get chances. I think there’s a lot more sincerity when it comes to the music aspect of things when ...

M: How do you juggle being a student and a working musician?

C: It’s very difficult actually to do it because obviously I’ve got other commitments academically and I’ve got exams coming up so it means I have to put music on hold and I haven’t been writing as much as I used to so it’s been difficult to juggle it but whenever I get the free the time that’s when I write or that’s when I do gigs.

C: Probably when I starte...
