Der Gestank

This album is a deeply personal project. After years of making music, I feel like I’m finally able to create exactly what I hear in my head. I’ve always known what I wanted to make, but with each project, I get closer to shaping sound with real intent—nothing here is left to chance.

It brings together abstract loops, organic drum layering, indie elements, and the texture of trip-hop while also focusing on the creation and manipulation of soundscapes. As in my previous projects, I shape and transform real-world sounds, pushing them into new directions to create a distinct atmosphere. Some songs are completely live-recorded sessions, adding an organic, unfiltered quality.

As with previous projects, some of the songs were created in collaboration with homeless musicians. All proceeds from those tracks go directly to them.
