I am Oliver Range and I have been a musician since 1973 and had the successful rock band „Starling“ until 1981! From 1981-2020 I unfortunately had to take the accident-related break because I was paralyzed on the right side.

Fortunately, during the Corona era, I discovered my joy in „making music“ again.

On this page I will show you a few songs that I composed, created or produced in my little home studio.

… and Orange is my name!

Caroline – A&O

In this video you can see a short section of „our“ Caroline! My dear Honeymoon Annett is on bass. I first taught her to play bass a few months ago … a natural talent!

How long can I wait for you?

I created this song in 2022 with Logic Pro X and a few samples and yes I know that this sound is 30 years late, but I was on the road in the 80s:

Underground for you

Hopefully nobody asks me how to get the name … I just thrown together a few samples … Whether that fits together is another topic 😉

I enjoy it! In the video you can see how I did it:

Over an Over

I did this song in bed on a sleepless night! That was in 2020 in May and I think about Corona … I take my MacBook, start Logic Pro X and play with the samples. This song was created until the early morning at six o’clock:

Grooving Head

Imagine you lie on the beach and from a somewhat distant beach bar you can hear this music. Once again I played around a bit on a rainy afternoon with my music program on my Mac and that was created:

Dolce Vita

I really wanted to re-record the 1984 disco classic „Dolce Vita of Ryan Paris“, but unfortunately I can’t play or sing the piano or keyboard. I just drawn the grades into my program and that came out … just for fun!

It is best to listen to with headphones, then it sounds better:

Wait for Love

I wanted to do something more melodic – with piano samples and violins and such:

Dreamer-Project

So it started that I did live music with Ableton. Actually, I got the idea through a guide from Thomas Foster … and so I came up with the taste … just because it is fun … I hope so too. I had called Dreamer Project:

Dreamer-Project-Latest-Version

So far, this is the latest version of my „Dreamer song“, which I composed in 2019. Just put on and enjoy headphones … if you like such music:

Deep Down

I also tried a little house music:

Mein first Song with my Computer

I started with the live version of Ableton and in this video I show how I did it:

Classic House

This song was an idea of mixing something „classic“ in my songs in the summer of 2020 … Have fun:

Crazy Man

In this self-composed song I tried to „sing“ or to speak:

Mysterious Disco

My songs are becoming increasingly mysterious:

Happy Life

Today, in February 2020, I tried to test the Apple loops a little … I pulled them over to the arranging window in Logicpro X and played a little.

I don’t know exactly whether this is good or bad for an actual „rock music fan“ … but I think it’s good:

Rockdisco

In this video you can see how I make music – just put another instrument on every trail and see what comes out.

I wanted to get a little rocker this time and I also installed two guitars, but somehow it sounds pretty discommered again … it gives an old rock fan like me now:

Hardfunk

Just a bit of experimenting in my modest home studio … and something like that comes out. Let’s Groove:

Samba-Pa-Ti

Here I tried to replay this legendary song by Charlos Santana. This somewhat own version was created.

It is stupidly mirrored, because the right hand is actually paralyzed … what you also notice from time to time. But that’s why it is all the more valuable and wonderful for me to have tried it again after 40 years. It’s not fun to be perfect …
