IRONBAR STUDIOS were founded 1992, starting out in a modified cellar rehearsal room in Darmstadts Liebigstrasse (at that time called “Sesamstudio”).
For 12 years equipment and clientele expanded, so 2004 a new location was found. In some kind of “fusion” with the lofthaus studios (run by Mark Ruekert, Gyso Hilger and Jan Weimann), which were also located in the Liebigstrasse rehearsal rooms, a much more comfortable studio on the Goebel-factory site near the Darmstadt central station was built. Now the Ironbar studio resides in a four-room daylit facility on about 139 square meters, and the consequent sound insulation allows a 24/7 operating of the studio (if you want to... ;-)).
The technical equipment and the room-sound have been consequently optimised as well, so that by now an extensive and professional setting is available that should be able to cope with the daily routine of recording, and moreover it can even fulfill many unusual wishes of a musicians mind. Combined with the longtime experience and musical comprehension of music lover Lolo Bluemler a big “instrument” is generated, which loves to unfold its sound for bands and musicians of varied styles and genres.
This is underlined by the big musical diversity of the customers of the IRONBAR STUDIOS.
LORENZ "LOLO" BLUEMBER played piano as a child and started playing drums at the age of 14. In the late 80s he started playing guitar also.
His first musically relevant Project was the 1985 founded guitar pop band "The Sheets". Long forgotten today, at that time the Sheets had a little success through a high position in the Spex readers poll and a support tour for "The Wedding Present". First contacs to the recording world with sessions in the Hotline Studios Frankfurt.
After the split of the Sheets began another musically very active time, Lolo was temporarily in five bands at a time (in some degree national established were Ska Trek and Tieflader, the latter with Jörn E. Wuttke of Alter Ego and Sensorama, who had been singing for the Sheets), and graduated as a audio engineer at the SAE school in Frankfurt (1992). Since the launching of the Ironbar Studios Lolos life is all about music.
Today Lolo is involved in the bands Ska Trek, The Databreak, Woog Riots and the occasionally appearing DA City Dub Dudes. From time to time he spins records, playing dub and early reggae, or indie music.
