II-I Blick 4 03:02
Wenn ich dich nicht behalten darf, halt ich mich halt an dich Wenn du sie dir nicht nehmen kannst, geb ich dir die Antwort nicht Das Meer wiegt sich im Totentanz und spiegelt deinen Blick Der suchend in die Ferne greift, zum Ufer und zurück Wenn du für mich nicht halten kannst, halt fester an mir fest Bevor unsere Vision uns hinter sich lässt Mein Hunger ist ein Waisenkind, geknebelt und allein Dein Blick hat ihn genährt und kann niemals genug sein Und ich stehe an Deck, gefesselt an den Mast Und warte auf Erlösung und löse mich im Warten auf Wenn du mich jetzt nicht nehmen kannst, nehm ich mich halt zurück Und übernehm das Steuer für den kleinen Augenblick Die Wellen erbeben unter uns und reflektieren dein Licht Im Schattenspiel der Seelenessenz verkenn ich mein Gesicht Ich öffne deine Augen und sehe, dass sie erblindet sind Wenn ich eine Stimme hätte, dann könnte ich jetzt schweigen

about

There is no greater honor than to be inspired.
The concept of tonal portraiture arose from deep fascination for certain individuals and the urge to make them seeable through my eyes. As my music is usually dedicated to the disclosure of my own soul, the sound portraits are designed to depict my subjective perspective on someone else's soul.
The encounters with these persons have enriched me in my very core and inspired me in a way nothing else is able to. Therefore it is an honor and also an inescapability for me to cherish these confrontations soundwise.

"Klangporträts I" emerged in winter 2012 during a single long weekend of ecstatic inspiration. It is centered around spherical soundscapes and penetrating subbasses and generally has a very abstract quality to it that illustrates a hypnotized, floating feeling of timeless submersion.

"Klangporträts II" grew and developed during the year 2014 in the face of a love beyond boundaries and a loss beyond repair. This opus is a particularly important new venture to me because it is centered around my voice. It also resorts to more progressive structures in arrangement.

I dedicate this Double Feature EP to the portrayed. Thank you for the irreplaceable marks you left on me.
