This is the musical journey accompanying the harrowing events of Book 3 of "Hinter uns das Land" ("Behind Us The Land"), a poignant novel by Frank Talmon l'Armée. As the war closes in, the Feyerabend family, along with countless others, is forced to make the heart-wrenching decision to flee their beloved home in East Prussia. This collection of 16 tracks captures the emotional turmoil and the perilous journey that unfolds, painting a vivid sonic picture of a family caught in the midst of historical upheaval.

Book 3 plunges the listener into the chaos and fear of the final days of the war in East Prussia. The once-familiar streets of Danzig (now Gdańsk) become a haunting labyrinth of desperation and uncertainty as Inge and her family navigate the treacherous path to the harbor. The music reflects the growing tension, the ever-present threat, and the agonizing choices forced upon those seeking refuge. You will sense in the music the desperation of many refugees, but also their determination to survive.

The journey culminates in the boarding of the "Lappland," a vessel overflowing with refugees, all carrying their own stories of loss and hope. As the ship embarks across the vast and unforgiving Baltic Sea, the music evokes the vastness of the ocean, the precariousness of their situation, and the uncertain future that awaits them. You can hear in the sounds the inner turmoil of the characters: the children who do not yet fully comprehend what is happening and the adults who try to hold on to hope in the face of unimaginable fear.

From haunting melodies that echo the emptiness of a lost home to surging orchestrations that mirror the turbulent sea, this soundtrack captures the full spectrum of human emotion in times of war. Moments of quiet reflection are interspersed with powerful, driving rhythms, reflecting the resilience and determination of those who refuse to give up hope, although they know their lives will never be the same.

This musical collection offers a unique and immersive experience, drawing the listener deeper into the world of "Hinter uns das Land." It's a testament to the enduring power of family, the unwavering human spirit, and the search for peace amidst the ravages of war.

Life’s Uncertain Path Leads Us

An Epic Novel. A Sonic Universe. One True Story.

Welcome to the sonic universe of "Behind Us The Land" (Hinter uns das Land). What began as a soundtrack for an epic historical novel has evolved into a global, cross-genre music phenomenon, celebrated by millions of listeners and a worldwide community of artists.

Discover the different worlds within this project:

The official soundtrack to the 80-year true story of the Feyerabend family.

The epic progressive metal of the virtual band Adelheide's Wisdom.

The chart-topping indie pop of the virtual artist Ulla F.

Helmed by author, producer, and lifelong music curator Frank Talmon l'Armée, this project is the result of a deep-seated passion for music and storytelling. As the human visionary, he employs a hybrid method of traditional songwriting and the pioneering use of AI tools as his "orchestra" to bring this monumental saga to life.

This is a place for deep listeners, for fans of epic stories and genre-defying music. Dive in, explore the albums and playlists, and become part of a story that connects the past with the future.

At its heart, 'Behind Us The Land' is more than just the 80-year story of one German family. It's a universal parable about loss, resilience, and the unbreakable will to build a new home from the ruins – a story that repeats itself tens of thousands of times every single day, all over the world. Our music aims to give a voice to this universal experience and to inspire courage.

OUR VISION & MISSION

Our Vision: We believe that resilience can make even the deepest wounds bearable.

Our Mission: This project is dedicated to a profoundly human, true story to achieve two things:

To Bear Witness: To show what war does to ordinary people and how its scars echo for generations.

To Give Courage: To strengthen and inspire anyone who has suffered loss or lived through difficult times.

This is music as a testament. A story that repeats itself every day.

A Beyond & Before Music production.

UNSERE VISION & MISSION

Unsere Vision: Wir glauben daran, dass Resilienz selbst die tiefsten Wunden erträglich machen kann.

Unsere Mission: Dieses Projekt widmet sich einer zutiefst menschlichen, wahren Geschichte, um zwei Dinge zu erreichen:

Zeugnis ablegen: Zu zeigen, was Krieg mit normalen Menschen macht und wie seine Narben über Generationen nachhallen.

Mut machen: Jeden zu stärken und zu inspirieren, der Verlust erlitten oder schwere Zeiten durchlebt hat.

Das ist Musik als Vermächtnis. Eine Geschichte, die sich täglich wiederholt.

I was born in Brescia on the third of October, 1974, and I obtained a degree in 1994 as a geometrician. I live in Manerba del Garda (BS) Italy.

I write and publish poems and piano music. I made all the published tracks myself.
(For poetry:
I have previously published: The Sunlight – Poetry in the Heart of the night/Playing in the Garden – Virginia and Me/A new Journey/Within ourselves, beyond the stars/Soul and Pleasure – Eros Poetry/Memories/Eyes Heart Soul/Metamorfosi Metamorfosis Metamorfoses Metamorphosis Метаморфоз/Fiabe incendiarie Cuentos incendiarios Зажигательные сказки Incendiary Tales/Lilith/Images/Light/Impressions/Carillon (Fable poems Favole poesie)/Visioni/Bagliori dorati/Resplandores dorados/Bellezza Belleza/Caterina/Anima/Soul/Poesie d'amore/Emozioni/Rose fiorite/Sensazioni/Viaggio onirico /Cerotti per l’anima/Poesie di ferro bruciato/The future does gymnastics/Metallic paradise/Humanity Again/Sunshine.

“Between winter and paradise” was written by Fátima Rocío Peralta García. I also contributed to the creation of an Akkuaria anthology.

In particular, I was awarded third prize ex aequo at the first annual “Tribute to Emilio Greco” Literary Award on 18 December, 2010, in Catania and at the International Competition of Poetry, Prose, Figurative Arts La Finestra Eterea, I received 2nd place for both single poem of the 2015 edition and the 2017 Lilith edition, and 4th place in the 2019 edition for Carillon.

On 24 November 2018 in Forte dei Marmi, I received a diploma of honour with mention of commendation for Lilith and the single poem “Canzone” at the International “Buonarroti” Awards – 4th Edition; in the next edition, on November 30, 2019, I received the Poetry Prize for kids for Carillon.

For Carillon, again, on November 24, 2019, I received the Premio Leandro Polverini 1st place in the dream poetry category with the following reasons:

the entire collection is traversed by a happy tension towards the good, terrestrially consisting in the friction exerted by the living descending towards that ineluctable and always imminent future, which obeys entropic law. In the texts, phonic influences run and intertwine, the beyond-sky and beyond-time that offer us much more than an extraordinary expressive ability of the Brescian author and his evident predisposition in capturing dreamlike, subtle, and mysterious sensations.

(The president of the jury Luciano Catella).

In 2014, I conceived and organized the first annual International Literary Contest POESIE NEL PAGO DELLA MITRIA as a perfect way to rediscover the beauty inherent in every human heart by visiting a sacred place.

Poetry represents one of the ways of going deep into the very essence of ourselves while dwelling on everyday experience, and thanks as well to receiving daily feedback from other people.

Hey everyone! Welcome to my Soundcloud Page!


  These DEMOs were recorded on a home studio using very basic equipment. I am hoping to attract a producer one day to polish them into professional sounding songs. 

There are always enough songs to use for an album and I have many more that I haven’t posted. Thanks to all for your kind words of encouragement and for the likes and plays!


My song Shot Glass Philosophy has been promoted by Stuart Epps Productions and is being played on the Deuce Radio Show #744 which can be found here: https://m.facebook.com/deucepr/

Check out the radio show if you get a chance, it’s quite good.

My name is Kitka — a Singer-Songwriter moving between Germany, Thailand, and the quiet Shores of Lake Constance.
I grew up between two Worlds, and maybe that’s why my Music sounds the Way it does —
a Mix of Tenderness and Fire, Silence and Storms, Softness and Strength.

For me, m
Music is not a Hobby.
It’s my Diary, my Memory, my Language when Words fail.
Every Song I release is a Page torn straight from my Heart —
unpolished, emotional, honest, sometimes a little broken, sometimes full of Hope.

I write about the Nights that shaped me,
the People who touched me,
the Places that healed me,
and the Battles I fought quietly when nobody was listening.

I am not here to be perfect.
I am here to be real.

When you hear my voice, you’re hearing the girl who
sat at a piano in a tiny room,
whispering lyrics to herself because they hurt too much to say out loud.
You’re hearing the woman who stood under neon lights in Pattaya,
singing her truth even when nobody understood her words.
You’re hearing someone who carries too much emotion in a world that often feels too cold.

I believe music can save people —
because it saved me.

If you stay with me on this journey,
you won’t get masks or polished facades.
You’ll get the truth:
the fragile moments,
the quiet victories,
the heartbreaks I survived,
and the light I found in the middle of the dark.

I make music for anyone who ever felt misunderstood,
too sensitive,
too emotional,
too “different.”
For anyone who feels everything a little too deeply.
For anyone who needs a place to breathe.

If my songs reach you, even for a moment,
then every word was worth it.

With love, always —
Kitka

💫 Why I’m here
I believe that words and melodies can connect people.
If you recognize yourself in my lyrics, or if a song holds you through a difficult moment, then my music has fulfilled its purpose.
