Lyrics:

Spreading positivity
Through thoughtful creativity
Let will of Jesus guide my heart
In this I gain new clarity
I am a different kind of mage,
Reject all malice; cruelty; rage,
Refuse to be in devil’s cage
Instead I aim for purity
With purpose, crafting rhythms
That I see as correct,
In everything, the lead and drums,
And how they all connect
There is a very ordered state,
In what you call my oddities,
But I think my eccentricity
Creates the best of melodies
x2
(In all the work we undertake)
(He’s there, helping us)
(Let God, guide your heart)
(God’s will guides my heart)

Shaping each noise from humming lightning
Teaching my robots how to sing well
Sounds like a droning choir of floppies
In actual fact, three oscillators
Love casting music, I’m a synth mage
Space sounds fly wildly out from the stage
When I’m inspired, I have no limits
Aiming for sound waves with uniqueness
So many synths, when combined they make brand new sounds,
I think that’s cool, let me try and add one more module,
Slowed down my DAW right to a crawl
When I export it, I’m enthralled
I’m a go-getter, I’m relentless
I do not tend to settle for less
I used to be a mere apprentice,
When it all clicked, it was tremendous

…Let me mesmerise you for a sec
(Did it work? I hope so, that wasn’t tested yet)
Let me show you these muso tricks
Here’s some more I’ve got up my sleeves
Bit-crushing parts to sound so retro
Layer synth noises, add crescendo
Have so much fun creating tunes
Catching shooting stars with harpoons
Grand arpeggios like cascading waterfalls
Melting sounds of detuned chip bits
Turn up distortion, push up that drive
All of this process brings me alive
Love casting music, I’m a synth mage
Space sounds fly wildly out from the stage
(Let God, guide your heart)
(God’s will guides my heart)

📅RELEASE 30.08.2025📅

This time a mix between current mood (mentioned before) and summer vibe. 

Aurora in the Desert is a cinematic and hypnotic journey, blending the deep pulse of Organic House with the slow, immersive flow of Downtempo and the tribal heartbeat of Deep Afro. Layered with ambient electronica textures and subtle industrial grit, the track unfolds like a surreal aurora shimmering above silent dunes - vast, intimate, and endlessly evolving.

Built on warm sub-bass, earthy percussion, and spacious atmospheres, it’s music for mindful listeners, late-night travelers, and seekers of hypnotic rhythm. No drops, no hooks - only motion, texture, and transformation.

Next ones will probably almost all have the same topic (systemic/institutional injustice) being emotional, deep, some with own lyrics (from soft, over direct with some anger and maybe last my first explicit song in German and English - well overdue here...^^) before I can really release other songs again...

Thanks for any support!

Aurora in the Desert

Step into a moonlit river of sound. Session XIX — Lanterns Over the Water drifts through the heart of Japan’s shrine and lantern traditions, weaving non‐lexical shrine chorus hums, shakuhachi sighs, koto glissandi, and taiko heartbeat pulses into a deep, meditative lounge journey.
Inspired by Kyoto’s Gion nights, coastal lantern festivals, and the still elegance of Shinto shrine waters, this session captures a ritual calm where fireflies, incense smoke, and floating lights move as one.

▸ REGION: Japan — Shinto shrine ambience, lantern festivals, Gion street nights
▸ VOCALS: nonverbal shrine chants, breath vowels (“aaa–ooo–eee”), whispered blessings (“mizu,” “tsuki,” “kokoro”)
▸ INSTRUMENTS: shakuhachi, koto, taiko, suzu bells, temple woodblock, night cicadas, water ripple field recordings
▸ MOOD: moonlit stillness • ritual elegance • drifting light on water

🎧 For meditative evenings, incense-lit moments, or midnight walks by water.
