The idea behind my music is simply to express my moods/feelings through creating colourful sounds.
The recordings are done in a home-recording situation and are taking place mostly afterworks. Composing, arranging, recording and mixing are handled as one process in 3-4 hours. This guarantees a high grade of spontaneity but encloses mistakes and confines the complexity of the songs.
I try to stay close to analog sounds and only midi-drums are used in my work. I would love to add recorded drums and vocals to my sound but commiseration with my neighbours prevails.
Hope you enjoy some tracks!
