The Concept
of Clouds Hill
Recordings
The Clouds Hill Recordings studio occupies a total area
of 400 m² and offers unique, carefully selected equipment which will satisfy the highest technical demands
for all phases of analog and digital music production and
post-production.
The concept of Clouds Hill Recordings is to create an inspiring setting and creative working atmosphere for musicians from around
the world who care about working with the highest quality technical equipment.
The 2 × studio rooms guarantee superb acoustic quality, thanks to
a painstaking and unique design, specific to Clouds Hill Recordings, from the professional acoustic expertise of the company Taubert & Ruhe; who were recently commissioned as consultants for
Hamburg’s Philharmonic Hall (the Elbphilharmonie).
We do our utmost to make our guests as comfortable as possible
both in the studio as well as in the 250 m² artist apartment, which
is just one story downstairs from the studio complex. It is carefully
designed and furnished with a fully equipped kitchen, bathrooms,
6 separated bedrooms, a living room with a TV and a small library
and a unique view of the Elbe River landscape.

About Clouds Hill Recordings
www.cloudshillrecordings.com
The person
behind
Clouds Hill
Recordings
At the age of only 32, Johann Scheerer, the owner of
Clouds Hill Recordings, brought his dream to life. Being
an artist in his own right, he is a musician, songwriter,
producer & engineer.
Johann first started to write & produce music at the age of 17, using
an 8-track mini disc recorder. Back then he found it quite challenging working in analog: “8-track mini disc was a very strange format
for me. It was terrible to handle & it marked the major transition
from analog to digital recording. However I’d spend sleepless nights
working around the difficulties. In my opinion analog tape offers the
best chance and sound for recordings to survive in the future.”
Nowadays, Johann often compares producing music to mountaineering: “You study it a lot, you’re maybe interested in special techniques and you start the journey well equipped. But when it comes
down to face reality, you have to improvise to achieve the results
you want.”
Johann is a skilful and effective counterbalance to strong-minded artists and designs parameters in which to work efficiently. He
loves to evolve songs from scratch with raw talented writers or musicians and is always conscious of developing their talent and their
songs. This way of working is further supported by making full use
of the abundant resources at Clouds Hill Recordings.

prolific talents to produce the right sound and record in 2015.

machine and a Neve 8068 console which was commissioned by

to Daniel Lanois and since 2007 has been with Clouds Hill Recordings.
Besides these candy pieces Studio 1 offers a wide range of old and

Live At
Clouds Hill –
The Series
Live At Clouds Hill — Current Release
Nisennenmondai: A Tokyo-based all-female
instrumental trio that makes equally raw
and danceable music. Nisennenmondai formed
in the late ’90s and took their name from
the Japanese translation of the then-current
phrase “Y2K bug”. The band takes as much
inspiration from the cool kids at school as from
experimentalists like This Heat, Pop Group,
Sonic Youth, DNA, and Neu!.

24 Live At Clouds Hill
Live At Clouds Hill – The irreversibility of the moment
Johann, over the last 8 years has built Clouds Hill Recordings into
one of the worlds finest & best equipped recording studios. Furthermore Johann has also established the series Live At Clouds Hill.
The idea behind Live at Clouds Hill is extremely simple. Johann
Scheerer invites an artist to his recording studio. The artist performs in front of a small live audience a maximum 64-minute long
set (the length of 2 × analog tapes). The performance will be recorded live, simultaneously mixed and straight away sent off for
mastering and vinyl manufacturing. The artists, as well as Johann
(in the role of producer & engineer) together with live audience are
forced to focus on the uniqueness of the present, because the final
release on vinyl is irreversible. Many major record & management
companies have used Clouds Hill Recordings for intimate showcases and record release parties.

What they say
about Clouds
Hill Recordings
“Based on the recordings he has made with diverse artists like

“It’s magic what this young German guy did to my songs.
He saved my life!”
Pete Doherty
“It’s a huge great studio. Clouds Hill Recordings is analogue
central.”
James Johnston, Gallon Drunk
“This dude knows how to record a fat guitar sound.”
Omar Rodríguez-López
“Clouds Hill is one of the most wonderful studios I’ve ever had
the pleasure of being in. Going to Clouds Hill was like being in the
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory of all studios. Being there
has benefited Bosnian Rainbows, and us as individuals because
firstly, we were treated like family. God, there are just no words to
describe how beneficial Clouds Hills was for us in general.”
Terry Gender Bender
