Waves of Us

Bandcamp

Our musical piece draws inspiration from our firsthand experiences as artists deeply immersed in the vibrant atmosphere of the Fullmoon Festival, a biennial celebration within the Goa/Techno scene in Germany.

This gathering is far more than just an event; it represents a vibrant community of individuals and families who are actively part of this movement. While we often call them "Neo-hippies," their essence transcends any single label.

What truly captivated Sven and me about this community is the magic that infuses every aspect of their lives. They don’t just dance and celebrate; they genuinely care for one another. It’s heartwarming to see how they support each other, especially the children. They go out of their way to provide oversized, adult-sized ear protection for the little ones' delicate ears. They ensure that kids can join in on the fun during quieter hours, when the crowd is manageable and the music is somewhat soothing, allowing for a shared dance within these beautifully decorated spaces.

These people are more than mere acquaintances; they form a close-knit tribe. They share not only meals but also their joys, sorrows, and personal stories.

Together, they embark on a journey along the "Goa Highway," traveling from Hamburg to Berlin, following the festival circuit. This nomadic tribe is not limited to the Fullmoon Festival; you’ll find them at Antaris, Fusion, and Spiritual Healing...

all of these events are touched by their presence.

With our music, we aim to capture the very essence of this community—their spirit of togetherness and their deep connection to the festival.

Through our sound, we seek to convey the wonder and strong sense of unity that define the Fullmoon Festival and the extraordinary individuals who contribute to its unique vibe.

Behind the track: Tune in to Keith's rhythm. It starts off with just the snare and some hypnotic hi-hats, setting a mesmerizing pace. Then, the break hits, and the kick drum comes in.

With the beat now established, it transforms into a steady groove anchored by the kick, working in tandem with the bass in a Queensryche-inspired style where the bass and kick drum hit together seamlessly.

And it concludes in a way that contrasts the snare introduction—now it’s just the kick and the hi-hats guiding you out.

New synthpop track dedicated to my little sister Marion in collaboration with singer and friend Ross Lustre. 💜

Streets where
we used to play,
Faded in a dream
of yesterday,
Polaroid memories
capture the night,
Puddles of innocence,
this is us.

Marion, loyal soul,
 Fancy a place in my heart?
 Marion, loyal soul,
 Promise me, never to part.
Marion, loyal soul, 
Fancy a place in my heart?
 Marion,
 Promise me, never to part.
Marion
Fancy a place in my heart?

Bridges over Loire,
scenes to replay,
Riverside moments,
in a wonderful ballet,
Childhood memories, but
I need you to stay.

Marion, loyal soul,
 Fancy a place in my heart?
 Marion, loyal soul,
 Promise me, never to part.
Marion, loyal soul, 
Fancy a place in my heart?
 Marion,
 Promise me, never to part.
Marion
Fancy a place in my heart?

Reasons

When Sven and I stepped into the Verrückt Hoch Zwei recording studio, the place buzzed with creative vibes. Sven was in the control room, fine-tuning the sound levels with great care, while I was lost in my world on the drum kit, crafting rhythms that filled the space with energy.

Every time we were about to add a new layer, Sven would excitedly share his thoughts, his enthusiasm palpable. Once everything was set, we hit the record button, capturing the raw, real-time magic of our collaboration.

As I played my beats, Sven skillfully operated the recording gear, making sure each sound was perfectly captured. The studio came alive with our creativity.

After each session, we assigned different recorded elements to specific pads, turning them into catchy loops that added new dimensions to our track. I remember placing the bass line on the outer edge of the floor tom, breathing new life into our arrangement with a pre-recorded sample.

Time slipped away as we meticulously honed each layer and loop. It was a labor of love; despite the hurdles we faced, we were determined to create something special.

In the end, though our recordings didn’t find their way to an audience, I couldn’t let our work fade into the background. Instead, I chose to release it to the world, allowing it to resonate with listeners everywhere.

Looking back at our time in the studio, I treasure the effort and artistry we poured into our project. It was a memorable experience that deeply impacted us both, and I’m excited to share our music widely.

Behind the track, I played the beat "Rise," while Sven saved it as Storm Drum: Rise. This title reflects our creative journey, serving as a reminder that our music can touch hearts and leave a lasting mark on anyone who hears it.

About the album:

"Lost and Found" is a moving and finely detailed album by PNFA, the musical project of German artist Wolfram Gruss. Known for his reflective and atmospheric style, Gruss delivers a collection that blends downtempo, chillout, and trip hop with cinematic and electro-acoustic elements, resulting in a rich, immersive sound.

Most of the tracks are instrumental, unfolding slowly through layered textures, ambient tones, and subtle rhythmic patterns. Each composition is carefully arranged, showcasing a strong focus on sound design and emotional nuance. The music feels organic and spacious, balancing electronic precision with a warm, human touch.

Alongside the instrumentals, the album features several vocal pieces that add lyrical weight and emotional clarity. These songs deal with themes of love, separation, and the emotional complexity of letting go, offering a contrast to the abstract mood of the instrumental tracks.

PNFA’s production style is deeply nuanced, with every detail—from gentle melodies to atmospheric field recordings—thoughtfully placed. "Lost and Found" stands as a cohesive and expressive work, shaped by both technical skill and a strong emotional core.
