What does actually Castalian Spring means?
In Greek mythology, Castalian Spring got its name after the nymph Castalia — she threw herself into river or was transformed into a spring to evade the pursuit of Apollo. The spring was then named after her, and it was a source of inspiration for Apollo and the Muses.
Later this incident was forgotten and Castalian Spring became a sacred place giving inspiration to poets and musicians.
This word has become synonymous to an inexhaustible source of inspiration.
So the main idea of our studio — to create a space with different vibe of every room that will give some inspiration during rehearsal or recording.
29/10/2021
Friends, we are finally updating equipment and capacity of our smallest room.
Soon in Cellar Room drummers will play here brand new full set of handmade Istanbul Mehmet Traditional series cymbals; Ludwig Supralite 5,5" snare. Guitarists can choose between Fender Blues Deluxe and Marshall JCM900 tubed great sounding combos with Ashdown EVO300 bassamp. Also the max capacity of the room is 4 people now because of the rearranging the equipment.
With that since 1.11.2021 we have to raise the fee for the room that will help us to update equipment and simply to survive these hard days:
- 10 Euro/1 Hour for 11:00-18:00 on Mondays-Fridays
- 13 Euro/1 Hour after 18:00 on Mondays-Fridays
- 12 Euro/1 Hour for weekends
�Still it’s possible to use this room for 5 Euro/1 Hour during day time for solo practice. And you can apply 10% discount if you take rehearsals there for amount more than 100 Euro payments.
Deeply thank you for understanding and we hope you will enjoy new sound!

Workshop: The Orbital Improvisation System by Carmelo Leotta
We're excited to launch our first Workshop!
The Orbital Improvisation System
by Carmelo Leotta
Do you familiar with pentatonic but still need some knowledge how to use it for improvisation? So meet Carmelo Leotta, he will introduce you The Orbital Improvisation System!
The basic principle of the orbital system is the collocation of a sound in a quartal order. Playing different segment of the quartal order, that we ́ll call from now on orbits, imply the qualification of the sound.
The orbital system allow to determinate the harmonical quality of a sound in a tonal environment, avoiding the dominantization ́s process, as well as the modal system, with the difference that it allows to switch the quality of the sound moving forwards and backwards trough a progressional sequence of quartal intervals.
Knowledge fits perfectly for guitarists, bassists, pianists.
Learn and try to play it at our workshop!

Castalian Spring GmbH is a rehearsal studio in Berlin with five rooms with unique concept and professional equipment that works for musicians each day from 11 am to 11 pm.
It was created a year ago by us, two friends from Minsk, Belarus:
Oleg Domanchuk — professional sound engineer who works both in the studio and with musicians at various concerts.
Maksim Kulsha — musician and member of cold-wave band Super Besse with huge experience of touring and practicing in different countries and rehearsal spaces.
In 2016 we moved to Berlin to create a conceptual rehearsal space. We worked really hard on it: fully renovated the whole building of the studio by ourselves using special formulas and knowledge. The main goal was to provide musicians with great sound and to open an unique space to inspire them. In Greek mythology, Castalian Spring got its name after the nymph Castalia threw herself into into a spring to evade the pursuit of Apollo, a famous womanizer of those days. The spring was then named after her, and it was a source of inspiration for Apollo and the Muses. Later this incident was forgotten and Castalian Spring became a sacred place giving inspiration to poets and musicians. This word has become synonymous to an inexhaustible source of inspiration.
Inspiration is good, but how is it from a practical point of view?
Each room has professional musical equipment which we've chosen very carefully. All rooms have ventilation, air conditioners and heaters. Also we have lockers for storage your gear. Of course you can find at the studio facilities: nice chill-out area with couch, free wi-fi, coffee and tea for free as well, cold beverages, parking places right in front of the studio’s gate, bicycles parking, toilets etc.
My upcoming performances this weekend:
-Friday with Izzy Amuw at Castalian Spring
-Saturday with Bianca Ciocca at PankeParcours himmelbeet

Maksim Kulsha came from Minsk to Berlin in 2016. “I like the city the most if I compare it with other places on Earth. Its architecture, freedom, mentality of the people, parks and nightlife.” But Maksim also had to face a lot of bureaucracy when he arrived before founding his company, Castalian Spring a music studio for practicing and recording. He is the CEO, administrator and sound engineer. “I like to meet musicians, talk about their music and make connections.” Due to the pandemic, 2020 was very difficult – and still is – since they basically had to be closed all year and focus only on recording, mixing and mastering songs online. With governmental help they survived. “I have never heard about such great help in other countries, and I really feel blessed to create business in Berlin.” 🎸 https://bit.ly/2XdVmCE
