Poverty
The "Schwabengehen", which finds its first mentions already in the 16th and 17th century, experienced its peak in the 19th century. It is estimated that at that time five to six thousand children worked annually on farms abroad as herd boys, maids or as farmhands. The background to this was the extremely low soil yields in the alpine regions and the associated poverty, which drove parents to send one or more of their numerous children abroad.

The Ways
The ways from Tyrol and Vorarlberg or from Switzerland to Upper Swabia were long and arduous. For some of the children, most of whom were between 5 and 14 years old, it led over mountain passes such as the Arlberg, which were usually still covered in snow in March and which many had to overcome with poor shoes and scanty clothing. Usually their companion was an adult, sometimes a priest, who made sure along the way that the children could settle down to sleep in warm stables and who negotiated prices at the markets. The construction of the Arlberg railroad in 1884 made the journey easier for the Tyrolean children.

The "children's markets" in Upper Swabia usually took place around Josephi (March 19). At Simon and Juda (end of October) or at the latest at Martini (November 11) they went back home. In the luggage were then the so-called "Doppelt Häs" (a double set of clothes from the headgear to the footwear) and, depending on the age and the negotiated price, a few guilders.

The Hütekinder arrived at the port of Friedrichshafen by ship from Bregenz. Since 1891, the central market place for the Hütekinder was in Karlstraße in Friedrichshafen. The children who were not placed traveled by train to Ravensburg to be placed there.

The work
In their homeland, Swabian children were exempted from compulsory schooling every year, and in the Kingdom of Württemberg the compulsory schooling that had existed there since 1836 did not apply to foreign children. The politically repeatedly demanded extension of compulsory schooling was prevented until 1921 by an Upper Swabian farmers' lobby.

Thinking about you
How I'm nothing without you
Just wandering round
This empty town until I saw your face

Girl, you're amazing
I'm not paraphrasing
I'm telling you just how much
I love the way you roll your eyes at me

Oooh
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about those things you do 

I know that it's lazy
But you're driving me crazy
Don't have the time
To find a way to say some words that aren't cliche

Thinking about you
Just glad that I found you
A shot in a million or maybe
A couple of hundred but, baby, hey that's cool

Oooh
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about those things you do 

Thinking about you
How I'm nothing without you
Just like a ghost that
Floats around this empty town forever

But now that we're older
Put your head on my shoulder
I don't want to hide those extra
Lines that crease our faces when we smile

Oooh
I'm thinking about you
Thinking about those things you do 


Take my hand babe we can fly away
Like the hours on the clock face
Let em fade away
You take my pain away
You should be regulated taxed and prescribed your my queen bee I wanna get up in your beehive just don’t ask me to behave  pop quiz this an easy A let’s get a coffee like we on Luke cage or we can pop some poppin corn and watch jeopardy our relationship has sea legs I mean longevity I don’t care if it’s birds and bees and B’s and G’s birthday suits or blue jeans I just wanna be with you


Rich sent me a delicate little guitar line built around playing some tenths. I probably shouldn't have scuzzed it up and added a load of tape wobble, but for some reason I figured it might sit in a kind of 70s soul/hip-hop track. As it's essentially just a repeating chord sequence, I needed something to break the flow. Step forward @nahlej381 with his usual spoken section par excellence.

ENERGY

Easy To See Now

Contemplative, introspective, with a hint of wistfulness. Imagine a quiet moment of reflection, where time seems to slow down and thoughts drift like wisps of smoke.

Snowfield Poetry

I make music because it is where I let go of the have-to’s, and become part of something larger than myself. The language I speak on the keyboard when I improvise expresses a part of me that only comes out there at the moment of creation - when I’m fully connected and in the flow. In those moments when I disappear in the music, those are where I’m most fully alive. The musical question I pose to myself when I play is largely this: how can I release my inhibitions and let go of patterns sufficient to bring something entirely new, unexpected, and enlightening into the world, with structure, precision, clarity, and depth of expression. These pieces are meditations that are of me, but more precisely, they come through me. When I’m in the flow, I’m channeling the energy and only moderately directing it. The challenge is to be open to take risks while maintaining a structure, melody, and tempo that makes it interesting and satisfying enough to keep listening. I keep doing this nightly because it’s a language, because it’s a connection to something greater than myself, and because it’s very very relaxing.
