Christian takes us around this old Victorian house packed full of goodies, old and new. A place Crow Hill wants to be a destination for anyone interested in music, sound, and / or filthy old bits of kit.

Dear Christian, I only just realized that you started your new company. Your videos, tipps and tricks have been a goldmine for my work since I came in touch with products you’ve been involved in. Wishing you and your company success because you really are an inspiration for us composers since so many years. all the best! Thomas

[@TheCrowHillCo]

Thanks Thomas. It’s comments like these that keep me going!

[@smalltown2223]

Hopefully you become more successful than ever before. You deserve every bit of it.

[@TheCrowHillCo]

Such a kind comment, thank you.

[@Zaleskee]

.. Christian, you are BLESSED, congratulations My Friend!!.

[@sourcefor]

Glad you are back change is good!

[@FairchlldMusic1]

Your best comment was the analogy of the “accidental photograph”. That really sums up what we all strive for; to capture a moment in time that is unique and special. Thanks for the tour!

[@GprokYB]

so refreshing to hear all that, thanks Christian!!!!

[@timdrumheller]

So glad you're back!

[@leefoster4171]

Absolutely fabulous and a real vibe whereby you can immerse yourself in spontaneous creativity

[@PedroMac-rt8fl]

Congrats on the new space, Christian. Wishing you the very best of fun and good fortune to you and the Crow Hill team. Please keep delivering that cheeky humour I have come to love. All the best from Sydney, Australia - Cheers, Pete

[@getkilted]

Christian I've always loved your videos, and I love this new concept. But you've been through a lot. I'm so pleased you're back on KZbin but it's with the greatest respect that I want to say you look stressed. I hope you're okay. I'm overjoyed about this new chapter, and appreciate your honesty. And the 'commune' idea looks great. But you've already mentioned that one of your team is sick because he's worked so hard. Look after yourselves.

[@ChristianHensonComposer]

We will... note to self, don't launch a company in late autumn when flu season starts! It has been a stressful time, but the love and support I have around me is nothing short of sensational.

[@golafs]

great to see you back!

[@bulentkamali]

I wish you best of luck. What feels missing is your talking to us up on a hill on a cloudy day while your dogs sniff around

[@ChristianHensonComposer]

yes, I did my back in so have found it difficult to get up there, but I'll push on this weekend.

[@Kevinrothwell1959]

​@@ChristianHensonComposerHope you manage your walk, gives you an excuse to pop into the "Sheep Heid Inn" !😊

[@bassManDavis1953]

What a beautiful place to live a dream, with all that fabulous vintage equipment and inspiration can only come along with your space.

[@ChristianHensonComposer]

Being able to lose one's self is a very important escape we all need.

[@thejessesliger]

Christian is the music friend we all need. Thanks for sharing

[@DylanMarkMusic]

you're a legend

[@Michael_Smith-Red_No.5]

That is a beautiful house.

[@acimbobby]

Very nice place for people, and your vision of a great studio space. lol

[@sathurxy49]

Welcome back, Christian. You were missed. Beautiful set-up.

[@TheLeon1032]

I haven't seen your videos for months and just found crow hill Chanel the last few days, ur a little more direct and creative and less scripted when you speak and explain your ideas, more feel, more like a rock star than a film composer these days, its really inspiring

[@ChristianHensonComposer]

certainly don't feel like a rock and roll star!

[@fryslander]

Christian, incredible what you buildup there. Looking forward to the next tour and the projects you gonne launch.

[@pongtrometer]

Love it, a space to create the sacred gift of music, by music lovers that honour music

[@BenMartinBox]

Hey Christian, only recently I learned about your departure from spitfire-audio. What shocked me the most was the reasons why. I truly can't understand why many of us (apparently) aren't entitled to have honest opinions about any issue and why we can't openly talk about it, these days. What is this world that we are creating? A world based on the "political correct" attitude that allows democracy to be turned into anarchy? An healthy democracy requires responsibility and vigilance. Unfortunately many exploited this and confused democracy with debauchery. I do not criticize or care about what anyone chose to do with themselves, their choices, the way-of-life they embrace for themselves but I can't stand that they use my "respect for them" to hurt me or hurt others only because they don't allow me the right to have different opinions or make different choices on matters that are dear to them. It is like a racist accusing me of racism, when I’m not one. Anyway, I just subscribed to this new community and I wish you all the best and huge success. Stay safe and thank you for the courage to speak your mind, even if that makes "others" uncomfortable. If they become uncomfortable then, maybe, there’s something not resolved in theirs lives and maybe they are part of the problem, not the ones they accuse of.

[@TheCrowHillCo]

Thanks so much for your kind comments. I don’t give a monkeys what people say or said about me but was heart broken when they went for my work pals which is why I had to step down. I wish them all the best and every success in the future. This project is a more humble one but just me continuing what I was doing and that was giving people encouragement to have a bash on a musical instrument. Xxx

[@BenMartinBox]

@@TheCrowHillCo You (and spitfire) have done much for many musicians, believe you me. I'm one of them. Keep the good fight, that’s the way. Stay safe and thanks for VAULTS. Quite powerful stuff.

[@Sonar37]

How Awesome is this. So glad to see this and looking forward to seeing and hearing more. 😊

[@beanobawz3432]

Ohmigod you've got the actual Colossus from "The Forbin Project". Great to see your new space it looks amazing! Looking forward to hearing your new sounds

[@SMBorthwick]

What an extraordinary space. Wonderful!

[@asylumgiant]

Loving the space and the energy. Great to see you set up in the new place. It is quite Grange like. I remember the call on the morning after the auction when you asked me to check online, as you may have bought a mixer owned by Hendrix after indulging in the free wine. You took the news of the final bidding figure very well as I recall. Big love and have fun. x

[@ChristianHensonComposer]

MATE! love you sir!

[@ramsaysg]

Aladdins Cave, love it

[@SambodhiPrem]

Lovely vision Christian! Thank you and greeting from Australia!

[@brood1658]

[@ChristianHensonComposer]

thats a nice part of it, losing one's self in that stuff is such a wonderful escape.

[@Pax30001]

Awesome!

[@huwevans2653]

Lovely project. I wish you all the best and look forward to all your up coming videos and projects.

[@michaelsethcudd]

Inspirational tour! 😊

[@JSVill]

What a wonderful and creative feeling space!! Stuff of dreams!!

[@tonycowin]

I'm only a hobbyist though was in bands and did records in my younger black and white life. We've set up the back room in oir new small house as a chill out/creative space. My studio is in there, my daughter is getting into DJings so that's in there and it's full of art and astehtics peices we love that inspire us. It's also a great great space to hang out in listening to music and chatting, eating, drinking etc. So I'm totally on board with what you're saying. There are times in the night I'll just pop down and work on a song because it's there but also because it feels part of me and comfortable. Home and creativity are now inextricably linked and it's fruitful and fun.

[@kbgeezer]

amazing inspiration ! I love how you craft your ideas and your ultimately your life and community. love it.

[@antsteep]

There is the quote that says "The objective isn't to create art but to live a life that makes creating art inevitable" or something like that.

[@ChristianHensonComposer]

love it!

[@MS-Patriot2]

Having all the favourite tools at hand is the key to this space, wonderful!

[@alderickzeke-walter3369]

Wow! beautiful place indeed

[@twitchbook-1]

[@BoogieBear]

So glad it’s all coming together for you Christian, I wish you many years of happy music making!
