new album: the fascinating vibes of electronic waves
2009
Welcome !
It's been a while since you've heard from me...thank you for listening to
my music; it means a great deal to me. It's not always easy to keep up the good
spirit and create music with an open and clear mind. But hey, that's what I do,
and I find so much happiness in making music. And it pleases me more than I can
tell when other people 'find' something in the music. That can be very
surprising! It's difficult to tell how many people found their way to my website
and are listening anonymously, but it doesn't matter. What counts is the good
vibrations! And they are slowly spreading around.
So This year I've made new music, ofcourse, and I'm still working on
it. There have been a lot of computing issues. Had to be done as well...Among
that was my
Syntedit fixation. I made three nice software synthesizers. Sound itself has
always fascinated me; I recall one year in which I just spent making sounds with
the Moog Prodigy I had back then. Now I made my own 'vintage' synthesizers
according to my own needs, and the results are very exiting!
2009 gave birth to new electronic tracks as well as some very nice
psychedelic songs with guitar and singing. Inspiration came from a nice long
summer that started on Crete where we had a very good time with friends and
music, and from festivals in Germany (Herzberg and the Zappanale) where we
experienced a lot of great live music, especially GONG, two times, and lots of
beatiful people.
World matters also played a big part and as I can see right now things are
speeding up in a positive direction!
The Turning Point
is drawing near and my hopes are high! We must believe in a bright future. So
many good people we met! We are with many! It went into my songs. I hope I will
stay in that mood next year!

Who Am I,
The Turning Point (2008)

I've renewed the music players. Now you can hear (almost) all albums
full length!
A friend was telling me that many musicians keep their music in their pocket.
It should be shared!
He's right!
Here you can hear the music for free.
If you wish to download the music to have it for yourself, please visit the
webshops for purchase.
-----------------------------------
Soon I'm going to put all music
presented on albums on this website online.That means all music going back to
Spiritworld. Before
and around that time I also made some other interesting tracks that I may
present to you; they're all part of my musical experiment that has developed
over the years. More about that later.
Thanks to my
server I'm able to put all this music online. They've given me ten times
more webspace for the same price!

My new electronic album'the fascinating vibes of electronic waves'
has been released
digitally in the webshops on the 17th of may 2009, so check it out!!!
Meanwhile you can enjoy the music over
here!
2008 was a good year. There have been over 500 downloads!
Last year I've spent a lot of time in my studio, and now I see myself confronted
with three finished albums...'Sabda' is the relaxed one. Endless which I
mentioned earlier is now called 'the fascinating vibes of electronic waves'.
And in november /december last year I made 'Elements' which is also quite
relaxed and old electronic sounding, with no guitar at all. It looks like 2008
was the year for me to get some of the old ideas out of my system and into the
music. Now I feel like rocking again.
I'm sort of struggeling with my available webspace; there's not enough to put
all music online...so I may have to rearrange the music that's currently online.
So that is what I have to do next, along with the release part of my new
music. And then I'm gonna hit the strings....!

2008
Currently I`m working on two new electronic albums. The first one (Sabda)
I actually created earlier this year, and has been waiting to be finished and
refined. It`s fairly slow music. On most tracks there`s no drumcomputer, which
gives it a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.
The music that I`m working on since spring this year (Endless) is also of
the slow kind, but there`s much more percussion going on. To me it feels like
full circle, since I started out with electronic music, and now coming back to
the essence of it. Making total use of my studio that has been growing and
developing over the last ten years. It`s all part of the dream I had, creating a
space where it would be possible to create the music that didn`t excist. And
that`s maybe the main theme of the album; the celebration of electrons swirling
through devices and making the air vibrate. A magical thing! From nothing comes
music...It`s the mind that creates this world, isn`t it?
Another nice development is my involvement in a `band`, which is a new thing to
me. It`s still early, but I can tell you something is happening! I play electric
and acoustic guitar, and there are possibilities to expand the music into the
electronic field. More about it later....!
Finally you can buy my music digitally online!

The track "Goddess" was played by
Sula Basana in "Nachtflug" radioshow
at Freies Radio Salzkammergut in Austria.
On the 8th of may my music will be used as a soundtrack for the animated film
"Transmuteo" by
visionary artist
Jean-Luc Bozzoli.It is going to be very special...!

It seems like a very long time since I`ve finished
Open, and many
things have happened inside and outside the studio.
One of the things is that I have been working on a new album, like always.
But this time it has taken me a bit longer, and I think that it worked out real
fine.
It is called `The
Turning Point`.
Main focus for me is the creation of new electronic music in my studio.
Since I started recording,
technology has evolved immensely,
giving me all the possibilities I`ve dreamed of, and more.
Here's an example from my
meditation and relaxation album 'Sadja'.
