I often feel things inside of me and / or see them in my dreams. I also perceive the environment around me very intensively. At some point I try to transform that into sounds. Often I feel surrounded by something spiritual in nature, which has an aesthetic of its own for me. Since it is never really quiet, things also bother me while recording meditatively. I don't allow myself to be bothered by it anymore and also build the disturbances into the flow of the music. I love the beauty of simplicity combined with noise music. As I said, noise is also compulsory in nature, where there is only a really quiet flow for a short time in between. If you listen carefully, you can sometimes hear chords in my pieces, but then very rarely. But I almost always try to work without predetermined progressions. Sometimes with pads, organ point etc. Most of the time in my work I don't know who I am in the present or in the past. For some I achieve a "childlike" state at work. That is very, very nice. In general, I prefer to be with my wife and family. Too many conspecifics are not really good for my soul. Used Sounds, are all sounds from nature Water sounds partly recorded with a self-made hydrophone. Then processed with Ableton Live and MAXMSP. My wife took all field recordings at a source near the existential-psychological educational and meeting place Todtmoos-Rütte.
