About my music
-
Some say it's bullshit, some
say it's funny, some say they like it, most say they don't. Well, if you
already listened to some of my tracks you know what I am talking about, but
if you're new to my world, you better keep on reading before asking for one
of my CDs.
So what's all about? Although having thought a lot about it, I don't really
know how to describe my music. Sometimes I don't even know if some of
my older songs are music, but I guess so. It's experimental music. It's me playing with sounds,
notes, noises and voices.
Most older songs include a lot of dadaism as well as surrealistic
elements - sometimes a little nonsense with profound deeper messages if you
get to the core of it. The newer tracks may sound a little
more like "real" music to you, but some people still don't get it.
Talking about the bad sound quality of some of
my tracks, I have to tell
the people that I recorded most of the older material using a low quality
soundcard and a simple headphone. But this "special" sound became part of
my music back then and well... it's been getting
better.
and it's history
-
Writing poems since the age
of ten and having fun by shocking people with strange kinds of creativity, I
decided in the year 2000 to create a combination of both by making a song
called "A Small Light", which was part of a project called "Das Ende
eines fallenden Imperiums" (The End Of A Falling Empire).
-
The feedback I received after
releasing this first piece of experimental music on the internet then made
me write and record the other songs for my first albums "Stereophonic
Dreams" (released in 2001) and - still very inspired - "Fall Of The
Powerful" (a few months later).
-
In 2002 I started to work on
the third album. But time was short and only three songs (including the
single-release "Silent Laughter") got finished.
-
My life got even worse than
before in 2003, and being busy all day productivity had to pay the price.
But at the end of the year I was able to complete and release "Nadine (Raven
Fly)" as a present to a friend of mine who has also been the
inspiration for this song.
-
At the end of 2004 the production
of the new album had been almost finished and I decided to release the
promotional CD "...And Insanity To Reign" in December. It included
some new songs as well as some from the 2001's albums and three unreleased instrumental
tracks. I also had my first live performance that year at "Wash & Show" in Nori's Waschsalon.
-
In April
of 2005 my third album "Visions To Deny" has finally been released. So I
took a long deep breath first and then...
-
2006 came
and I started to collect new ideas, to write some new material and to plan
to release another record.
Sadly I was struck by life as some truthes rained destruction down on my
picture of the world that summer and nothing of the material got finished.
But at the end of the year I wrote two tracks for a new short film of mine
titled "Grapes Grown In Heaven".
-
In March of 2007 I performed
at "Wash & Show" again and in August a new song called "Beer
On The Warfield" was uploaded to my
myspace site.
-
In spring of 2008 I decided
to put some material I finished the years before together and to combine it
with two songs already out on CDs since 2004. The result has been released in May
on my first EP called "Electronic Psychocore".
