Er hat Gott und das Himmelreich.
Wer glaubet, der ist klein und arm, 
Er schreiet nur: Herr Dich erbarm!

Music is my live 🎛️❤️‍🔥 
Ambient for everything!!

Since 1998 I made and released lots of sound art, music, and noise, and wrote and published lots of poetry. You can find most of it online, in record stores, and in bookstores. On May 28 2025 I returned to my roots, and started working low profile on new folk music, like in 1998. Inspired by Syd Barrett, Robert Calvert, Chris Karrer, Peter Hammill, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Richard Hell, Daniel Johnston, Roky Erickson,  Dave Bixby, Jandek, James Douglas Morrison, jazz, modern poetry, and painting I set on a trip that knows no end. Hope you're with me.
