Behind the name Carolin No are two singer-songwriters: Carolin and Andreas Obieglo. The two named themselves after the song "Caroline, No" by Brian Wilson, found on the Beach Boys masterpiece "Pet Sounds". When not on tour, the two married artists live - after stops in Berlin and the US - near Würzburg, Germany, where they write and produce their songs. The duo, which was praised by the trade press and awarded several prizes, has so far released eleven albums with primarily English and German-language songs and celebrates its 11th anniversary in 2018. Carolin No has performed with artists such as Konstantin Wecker, Reinhard Mey, Hannes Wader, Joan Armatrading and Suzanne Vega.
Stylistically, they draw from the singer/songwriter tradition and show influences from Electro, Jazz, Blues and Country. The couple plays with multifaceted variety: electronic soundscapes emerge from acoustic slide guitars, and spherical textures mingle with concrete beats. Songs of minimalist grace stand next to those enriched with the sounds of Blues and Gospels. Elegance is paired with simplicity, melancholy with vitality, and every tone glimmers with the love of music.

This is a pure analogue recording.
In STS Analog Recording, you will find:
1. The warm sound, that acoustic instruments possess on their own but is often not captured by sound technicians.
2. Acoustic placing and recognition of the musicians in the recording space.
3. Phase purity of a recording, both the electric phase (good cable/fibre connections etc), and the acoustic phase must be acquired through proper placement of the microphones.
4. Symmetry in the recording; this means always placing the microphones in such a way that on both the left and the right side there’s an equal division of signal, and not placing mono support microphones on the extreme left and right.
5. Transparency and clarity in a recording. This does not mean an overly sharp recording, but one of softness in tone and clarity, in which especially the 3-dimensional recording space is being displayed.
At every step, they check the results and compare the process with the original recordings. If you listen to STS music productions remember that they did their utmost best to get for you all the benefits of our effort to go far beyond the best of the best.
