Geradezu lächerlich und, weil ich um das Ende weiß, so gemein

Du bist rätselhaft, fies und gemein, aber du hast Humor.

Aurora Argentina

The song is from a dream I had about Worf from Star Trek defending an orphan from drug addict assassins. He then participated in a time travel experiment, using a shuttle with a field of particles without positions in space to collide with its corresponding pair in the future, at high velocity at the periapsis of a highly elliptical orbit , thereby exerting a drag effect and pulling it into the future. Finally Worf turned out to be a shape shifter and united with his people in the great link.

I took this raw material and turned it into a song about a dude recruited from the past by an intergalactic drug cartel to defend its Messianic psychic prophecy child from being assassinated. This "messiah" would grow up to be the most formidable leader, defeating the rival cartels and conquering the galaxy to ultimately sell narcotics to billions of species. The dude ultimately was just a projection of her psyche; in other words her future self created this guy in the past to protect her in the future, and so he was just a dream, which implies we may all be dreams of someone else's psyche!

Lyrics 

On a tainted
 moon
I received a message from you
With a mission
For temporal transposition

[You said:
"Board your shuttle
And blaze a trail elliptical
Initialize the field
Collide with its entangled pair at periapsis
Creating a rupture
That can't be sealed
The time differential collapses 
Dragged forwards by the chain reaction]

Protect the vision
Contemplating sublime enigmas
Galactic fanatics wage narcotic wars
In the dark of night
We fried a would be assassin
Just a washed up junkie
Not sure this is right

On my arrival 
Sworn to defend the  precious cargo
From their cartel rivals
Whose ruin they would sow

She knows the lattice of time
Her glare illuminates that which I sublimate 
The voice of my own past self who I will become
And becomes me, travelling to the place where I received the sign
An instrument of her design
Manipulating the folds of destiny
To target the syndicate adversaries
Scorching their territories 
Conjuring chaos across the universe

I'm just a dream of someone else's psyche
I must return and link with the great unity

Tainted Moon

This is an "improved" version of a recording I made in '95 or '96. Which means this track has been with me half my life so far. Schöneberg is a district in my hometown of Berlin (also the title of great and well-known techno track). It's where I spent a lot of my childhood, where I fell deeply in love for the 1st time, where I first kissed a girl and bought my 1st synthesizer. It's where I still live. This track's supposed to be a postivie, uplifitng instrumental hymn about life. Judge for yourself. This version features 909 kick drum.

Gunna Do What I do!!!

In the haunting depths of this classical composition, the ominous overture begins with a low, foreboding rumble, echoing the ancient corridors of Dracula's castle. The strings emerge with a mournful melody, weaving a sense of mystery and impending doom. As the piece progresses, the brass section introduces powerful and menacing motifs, resonating like the ominous footsteps of the immortal Count.

The composition explores the dark and brooding atmosphere of Dracula's realm, with the woodwinds whispering eerie tales and the percussion section punctuating the air with a sense of impending danger. The haunting choir adds a spectral dimension, their voices rising and falling like ghostly echoes through the centuries.

Throughout the piece, the tempo shifts, and the dynamics fluctuate, creating a sense of tension and release. The music builds to climactic moments, reflecting the intensity of encounters with the legendary vampire. Yet, even in moments of quietude, an underlying sense of unease persists, mirroring the perpetual shadow that follows Dracula.

The composition's final notes linger, leaving a chilling resonance that captures the essence of the immortal Count's dark and enigmatic presence. This classical masterpiece serves as a sonic journey into the heart of darkness, a musical narrative that pays homage to the eternal allure of Dracula and the macabre world he inhabits.
