I WANNA PLAY A BOILER ROOM - NEW YEARS EVE MIX

Know More

April 1945: The first days of exile in Denmark. This song captures the limbo between memory and uncertainty – whispers of a lost homeland carried by fragile piano and ghostly hip-hop rhythms.

Taken from the prologue of book four of Hinter uns das Land (Frank Talmon l'Armée), where war-scarred refugees stand on foreign soil, clutching fragments of their past. The snow has stopped falling, but the cold remains.

A prelude to the Versions of Exile EP – musical echoes of displacement.

April 1945: Die ersten Tage im dänischen Exil. Dieser Song fängt die Schwebe zwischen Erinnerung und Ungewissheit ein – geflüsterte Fragmente der Heimat, getragen von zerbrechlichem Klavier und gespenstischen HipHop-Rhythmen.

Entstanden aus dem Prolog des Buchs vier von Hinter uns das Land, wo kriegsversehrte Flüchtlinge auf fremdem Boden stehen, die Trümmer ihrer Vergangenheit in Händen. Der Schnee fällt nicht mehr, aber die Kälte bleibt.

Vorgeschmack auf die EP Versionen des Exils – musikalische Echos der Entwurzelung.

Ill Kill Ya (Birthday Dubs 7)

This is a track about excessive greed and the need to keep acquiring wealth, power and control. The second verse refers to the global financial crashes...Lyrics below

A brand new day breaks the darkness
But it’s still the same old sun
We all go round and round again
Until we’re back where we’ve begun

The best day of their life for some and for others its a curse
Another day to get through for them it can’t get any worse
Oh it gets worse, you better call for the nurse
Blame the universe, its all so perverse

We all drink from the well of life some fill their caddies to the brim
One day that well is gonna run dry and no-ones gonna win
They take every single drop they can for the life in which they’re immersed
They drink from the well and they never stop but they still can’t quench their thirst

Their lips are pursed, they always have to be first
Then they drink till they burst, a never ending thirst

There’s nothing fair about it we can’t choose to who we’re born
A world stuffed full of roses another filled with thorns
As years go by we watch friends fail and we wonder what does it mean
Do they water down the milk of life so they can have more cream

They take the cream it’s so bloody obscene
They plot and they scheme so they can live their dream

Yeah we all drink from the well of life some fill their caddies to the brim
One day that well is gonna run dry and no-ones gonna win
They take every single drop they can for the life in which they’re immersed
They drink from the well and they never stop but they still can’t quench their thirst

Their lips are pursed, they always have to be first
Then they drink till they burst, a never ending thirst

But it just don’t work it just don’t work
Their never ending thirst only makes things worse
It only makes things worse, that never ending thirst

Never Ending Thirst

Lyrics below ; ) 

To every man that loves a woman like this...

Special thanks to Shay who gave his voice ( and sanity ) to bring my story to life. ; ) xo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She's my angel, from any angle
she stands on her 
tiptoes just to kiss my face
She's my saving grace

She is
She is 

 Her soul is the deepest ocean
 I have ever sailed
when she walks in the room
I 'm a moth to the flame
All she has to do is say my name


She's a seer of the secrets
 I’ve never told
She's a protector, of the soul I never sold
She hears the words I've left unsaid
She's the voice that gets me outta my head

She is 
She is 

Her eyes tell me the truest answer
to any question, I have ever asked her
Because of who she is
She makes me want to be a better man 
And I hope I am

It would take this lifetime and the next
to tell you all the things 

She is  
She is 

She makes me feel alive
She's the love of my life
When my time comes
and the good Lord takes me home
 Her laughter is the last sound 
I wanna hear before I die
cause that's the only thing, 
I'm taking with me 
to the other side
the other side


She's the sun rising on the eastern sky
When the sun sets in the West
And the moon is high
I feel her heartbeat on my chest 
She is the only woman that ever put my soul at rest

She is 
She is 

She's got a few rough edges
and that suits me fine
When the world gets heavy
and I'm losing my mind
When I have my doubts 
and I'm feelin  down
I know
I'm not the easiest guy
to be around


She says Babe, look at me...
She cocks her finger like a pistol
She says, " who do I fight?
I feel sorry for the other guy"
She makes me laugh
Man... I'm glad she's on my side 

And she is 
She is 

She's the roof, that keeps the crazy out
she loves, me steady
holding nothing back 
on life's unpredictable course
she's always been my true north 

Oh

It would take this lifetime and the next
to tell you all the things 

She is  
She is 

She makes me feel alive
She's the love of my life
When my times comes 
And the good Lord takes me home
Her laughter is the last sound
I wanna hear before I die
cause that's the only thing, 
I'm taking with me, to the other side 
the other side

She said she's  gonna meet me on the other side
And she is 

She is

She Is

EP: "Strength In You" - Beyond & Before Music feat. Ulla F.

Discover "Strength In You," a new EP by Beyond & Before Music celebrating the unbreakable power of the human spirit! Inspired by the overarching themes of the novel "Hinter uns das Land" / "Behind Us The Land" but with a universal message, this collection features four songs that tell stories of resilience, hope, and growing through adversity.

With the track "Scars Made Me Stronger" at its core, the EP explores, in catchy Indie Pop and Pop styles, how we can learn from setbacks and find inner strength. The music is light, hopeful, and invites you to sing along, carried by clear melodies and positive vibes, symbolically represented by the spirit of "Ulla F."

These songs are meant to encourage and remind us that even after dark times, light always awaits, and that life's scars ultimately make us stronger.

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.
