Recorded live at the gallery of legendary Frappant e.V. in Hamburg. With Prophet 10 synthesizer, Theremin (also as a midi-controller), Dreadbox Nyx synth, lots of Max for Live looping stuff, effects like the Oto Bim or Soma Cosmos and realtime-processed field-recordings.

100% Frappant - Live August 2023

100% Frappant - Live

Live in Prague within the exhibition "Water Works" at Gallery City Surfer Office. Performed with just one instrument (except iOS granular synths Tardigrain and Borderlands). The Santur goes directly into the CBA Mood Mk2 and Soma Cosmos looper. I used the sticks to play but also an Ebow and a bow for strings.

Live in Prague

from solid to liquid - Live in Prague

The EP "Music for Business Plants" by Days of Delay was formed in visual collaboration with photographer/artist Frederik Busch.

Within his series of photographic portraits plants are shown who all live in business environments of German companies. The images have a focus on the personality of the plants, especially on the way they adapt to the space and circumstances they live in. These Plants are the weakest of the weakest in business life. They cannot walk away, they cannot take a break, they cannot quit their job, they just have to do or die. The portraits personify the shown plants, and try to give them back their dignity. 

The four tracks imagine the inner flow of emotions of the portraited plants.
