Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Wolf Hoffmann ma ka lā 10 o Dekemaba, 1959 ma Mainz (Kelemānia). Ua hana kona makuakāne no Bayer a he wahine hale kona makuahine.
Ua makemake nā mākua iā Wolf e puka i ke kulanui a loaʻa kahi hana kūpono, akā ʻaʻole i hoʻolohe ʻo Hoffmann i nā noi a ka makuakāne a me ka makuahine. Ua lilo ʻo ia i mea hoʻokani pila ma kekahi o nā hui pōhaku kaulana loa o ka honua.
ʻO nā makahiki mua o Wolf Hoffmann
Ua paʻa ka makua kāne o Hoffmann i kahi kūlana hanohano ma kahi hopohopo lāʻau nui. Ua hoʻokomo ʻo ia i kāna keiki i ka hoihoi e aʻo. Ua loaʻa iā Wolf kahi hoʻonaʻauao maikaʻi.
Ua hele nā mea a pau i ka lilo ʻana i loio male a i ʻole he ʻenekinia, akā ua hewa kekahi mea. ʻAʻole maopopo ʻo Wolf iā ia iho i ka manawa i hoʻomaka ai ka pōhaku a me ka ʻōwili i kona ola ma luna o nā ʻano ʻē aʻe.
Ua pūʻiwa ʻo ia i kona lawe ʻana i ke mele, ʻoiai ʻaʻole ʻo ia i noho i kahi keiki makua ʻole a me nā mākua hānai. Akā naʻe, ua hoʻowalewale ke mele iā ia. ʻO ka mea nui paha, ua hana kēia ma hope o kona ʻike ʻana i ka hana o The Beatles. ʻOiai ʻaʻole pololei kēia.
Akā ʻo ka lilo ʻana o Liverpool ʻehā i mea hoʻoikaika no ke aʻo ʻana i ke mele, ua hōʻoia ʻo Wolf iā ia iho. Ma hope o kona ʻike ʻana i nā kāne me nā kīkā, ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e kiʻi i kahi mea kani a aʻo i ka hoʻokani ʻana.
Nui nā hoaaloha ʻo Wolf a ʻike kekahi o lākou i ka hoʻokani pila. Ua hele koke ʻo Hoffmann iā ia a nīnau iā ia e haʻi i ke aha. Ua hōʻike ʻo ia i kekahi mau mele a me nā hakakā.
ʻO ka hōkū o ka wā e hiki mai ana o ke kiʻi metala i haku koke i nā ʻenehana maʻalahi. Akā makemake ʻo ia i nā mea hou aku. Ua hoʻomaopopo ʻo Wolf me ka ʻole o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻoihana e "paʻa ʻo ia ma kahi hoʻokahi" no ka manawa lōʻihi.
Ua noi ʻo ia i kona mau mākua e hoʻouna iā ia i ke kula mele ma ka papa kikā uila. ʻAʻole kūʻē ʻo Pāpā iā ia, no ka mea, ua moeʻuhane ʻo ia e lilo kāna keiki i ʻenekinia a hoʻomau i ka hoʻonani ʻana i ka inoa ʻo Hoffmann.
ʻAʻole hiki iā Wolf ke hōʻoiaʻiʻo iā ia he pono ʻo ia e aʻo i ka pāʻani ʻana i ke kīkā uila ma nā koina āpau. Akā, ua aloha nā mākua i kā lāua keikikāne pōʻino a hoʻouna iā ia i kahi kula mele (ma kahi guitar acoustic).
Inā hoʻokani mele ʻoe, a laila ma ka mea kani pono wale nō.
Hana me ka ʻae
Ua aʻo ʻo Hoffmann i nā hana maʻamau no hoʻokahi makahiki. E hoʻokaʻawale mālie i ke kālā ʻeke e kūʻai i kāna mea kani. Ua lawa lākou no ke kūʻai ʻana i kahi kīkā uwila plywood he $20.
ʻAʻole lawa ke kālā no nā mea hoʻonui hui, no laila ua hoʻopili ʻo Hoffmann i ke kīkā i nā lekiō paipu kahiko. ʻAʻole lākou i pale i ia hana no ka manawa lōʻihi a hāʻule koke.
I ka wā i haku ai ʻo Wolf i ke kīkā uila iā ia iho, ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e komo i ka hui. No laila hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻāʻo i kāu ʻenehana a aʻo pehea e hana ai i kahi hui.
Ua lilo ka hui Accept i kona hui mua a hope. Ua hoʻolaʻa ʻo ia i ka hapa nui o kona ola i ka hana ʻana i nā mele metala kaulana.
ʻO ka hiʻohiʻona o ka pāʻani a Wolf Hoffmann he improvisation. No ka nui o nā lālā o ka hui Accept i ho'āʻo e aʻo iā ia i ka manaʻo mele, ua pāʻani ʻo Wolf i ka wā i hoʻoikaika ʻia ai.
A ʻo ia kona mana nui. Ke nānā nei i mua, pono wau e ʻōlelo aia ʻo Hoffmann i loko o nā mea hoʻokani pila kaulana 30 a me nā mea hoʻokani pila maikaʻi loa he 60 maikaʻi loa ma ka honua.
Ma waho aʻe o ka hoʻokolohua me nā mele, ua hoʻāʻo ʻo Hoffmann e hoʻomaikaʻi i ke kani. No ka hana ʻana i kēia, hoʻopili pinepine ʻo ia i nā mea hou i kāna kīkā, hoʻohui i nā hopena.
I kēia manawa, ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻelua kakini kīkā ma kāna ʻano. ʻOiaʻiʻo, hoʻohana wale ʻo ia iā Gibson Flying V no nā ʻaha mele.
Makemake ʻo ia i ka hana ʻino o kēia mea hana. Ma ke keena, ua hoʻololi ʻo ia i kekahi mau kīkā. Hoʻohana wale kekahi mau mea kani i ke kani kikoʻī e pāʻani ai.
Ua hui ʻo Wolf Hoffmann iā Accept i ka makahiki 1975. A hiki i kēlā manawa, ke hoʻololi mau nei ka haku mele ʻana o nā monsters rock e hiki mai ana, akā hiki i nā kāne ke ʻike i kahi ʻōlelo maʻamau me kekahi.
Ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o kēia hui, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo Hoffmann i nā moʻolelo gula āpau a lilo i mea kākau kumu no ka kūleʻa o ka hui.
ʻO ka hana a me ka leʻaleʻa o Wolf Hoffmann
Ma hope o kahi ʻōpio haunaele, ua hoʻomaha ʻo Accept. Ua hoʻoholo ʻo Hoffmann e kiʻi i nā kiʻi. He kanaka akamai i na mea a pau.
Manaʻo nui ʻia kāna mau kiʻi e ka poʻe hoʻohewa. Hana mau ʻo Wolf i nā hōʻikeʻike, he hanana kaulana loa ia ma kāna kamaʻāina Kelemānia a me USA.
Loaʻa iā Wolf Hoffman nā mele mele ʻelua i kāna hōʻaiʻē. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album mua Classical i ka makahiki 1997. E like me ka manaʻo o ka inoa, aia i loko o ka disc nā mele mele kahiko i hana hou ʻia no ke kīkā.
Hoʻokahi makahiki o ke aʻo ʻana ma ke kula mele. Hoʻokomo mau ʻo Hoffmann i nā mele kahiko ma kahi pā me nā mele rock.
Ua hauʻoli mau ʻo ia i ka lehulehu ma nā ʻaha mele me nā mele a Bach a me Mozart. ʻO ka mea i hōʻiliʻili ʻia i hopena i kahi moʻolelo hoihoi.
Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ka poʻe hoʻohewa i ka hana a Hoffmann. ʻAʻole like me nā mea hoʻokani pila ʻē aʻe i "ʻakaʻaka i ka papa mele, ua hoʻokani ʻo Wolf i nā mele kaulana ma ke kīkā ma ke ʻano organically."
Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album mele lua a Hoffman Headbangers Symphony ma 2016. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā haku mele, e like me ka Classical, he hoʻololi kīkā o nā mele kahiko. Akā, aia i loko o ka album nā mana uhi o nā mele punahele a Wolf.
I ka makahiki 2010, ua ʻākoakoa ka "line-up gula" o ka hui Accept no ke ola hou ʻana o ka hui. Ua hoʻopaʻa ka hui i ʻehā mau moʻolelo ma hope o ka hui hou ʻana a ʻaʻole e pau i laila.
Ua ʻike hou ʻia ka hoihoi i nā mele maoli i ka honua. No laila, ua koi hou nā kāne a ua hoʻohana i ka hapa nui o ko lākou ola i ka huakaʻi.
Ua male ʻo Hoffmann i ka luna o ka hui Accept. Noho lāua ma Nashville (USA). He kaikamahine kā Wolf, ʻo Hauke, mai kāna male mua ʻana.
