The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble is a mutant mix of what has inspired us musically, and especially visually. TKDE started off as an audiovisual project back in 2000, influenced by old silent movie directors such as Murnau and Lang, but also the animations of Jan Svankmeijer or the films of the Quay Brothers. Jason Köhnen and Gideon Kiers, started creating soundtracks to old silent movies (Nosferatu, Metropolis) and progressively composed new music inspired by these images which eventually became TKDE. Trombone player Hilary Jeffery (originally from the UK, residing in Amsterdam) joined in 2004 and introduced Swiss born Nina Hitz. The debut album 'The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble' was recorded with this line up, and was released on UK electronica label Planet Mu early 2006. TKDE expanded to six when Eelco Bosman and French vocalist Charlotte Cegarra joined the ensemble in 2007. The second album is soon to be released !

GedankenKlang

...is primarily the connection of people who have found themselves through the common passion music and love. It stands for the fusion of music and feelings. 
We are fascinated by the idea of  letting artists interpret feelings in a piece of music like love, lonliness, satisfaction, sadness, happieness and let them show what it means to them.
Charlie Chaplin once said:
"We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity; more than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost" 

...and for us ,this is the reason why we are doing this Project. We love words and emotional release, because every day is full with Poetry. We just need to open up all our senses. 
And because everyone is  feelings differently and our artists are not committed to a musical direction, everyone is free to do what he wants and that is always a surprise, like Life.
