It was very early in the morning when I awaked from a dream where the following german words came to my mind together with some unwritten song structures:
Der Krieg soll enden und das möglichst bald. Für den Frieden und dessen Erhalt.
(eng: "The war should end as soon as possible. For peace and its preservation.").

It seemed very important at this moment, so I immediately stood up and noticed these two sentences on a piece of paper. After going to bed again and waking up later, reading these words once more with a rational mind I was not so convinced of its meaning any more and doubts came up if it would be really a good idea to use this for the next music production. At daylight and with sober mind it seems a bit childish and naive. But finally the power of the dream was stronger and so you can immerse yourself to the result on my newest 4 track EP "Der Krieg soll enden":

Bloop London Radio · Laber Nicht Records w/ JOIX - 12.07.23

This liveset was recorded at the beautiful riverside of Main at Offenbach in Germany where the Gleisbrett Festival took place inside an old train wagon on 24st June 2023, directly after I came back from my Japan Tour. It starts deep and melodic with some Japanese vocals and field recordings and evolves to a Deep Techno journey with lots of sound manipulations and some Didgeridoo parts. It was streamed live by Bloop Radio on 12th July.

7 years ago I texted and produced the Deep Techno track "Mantra". On 31th March 2023 a Remix compilation came out on Sounds of Jericho with remixes by Anschein, Chris Maico Schmidt, Hübschmann, Køps, Sori and Studiogegner!

Available at Bandcamp, Spotify, Beatport, Juno!

Here is a first teaser of the upcoming documentary "Grenzmusik" by Salome Beil where I was part of. :)
Die Dokumentation lotet in 29 Minuten und 54 Sekunden die Wahrnehmungen und Einschätzungen von Michael Beil (Komponist und Leiter des elektronischen Studios an der Hochschule für Musik Köln) und mir rund um das Faszinosum Musik im Spannungsfeld ihrer Entstehung, Wirkung und Darstellung aus und gibt Einblicke in unser musikalisches Schaffen.

Three remixes in a row!
1. For my companion Ryoma Sasaki I remixed his track "Journey in my head". More infos about this nice release on his label Transit Records see at the release page.
2. I was also part of the fifth release on Sounds of Jericho, a compilation of 5 tracks based on samples of a very special live performance by Joss Turnbull and friend musicians.
