Phil wow man, love the melody here, uplifting and melancholic...really beautiful work mate

A contemplative and melancholy composition Frank. There's a sense of emotional ambiguity throughout. Proprio come il clown dipinge un sorriso su una faccia piena di lacrime.

Spannende und zugleich emotionale Kombination des Bass-Pulses mit dem emotionalen Cello. Das zusammen mit dem Chor und der restlichen Instrumentierung geht wirklich ins Herz.

Phantastische Melodie! Ausdrucksstark und sehr gefühlvoll. ❤️👍

The violin adds so much emotional expression. Beautiful sadness with glorious reaching for the stars, too. All at once. The human condition. Lights that keep shining into the darkness. ✌️

Molto ben costruito, bellissime atmosfere in stile Vangelis 🎩🎶🎶🎶💯💯💯

So ist das Leben, sagte der Clown mit Tränen in den Augen, und malte sich ein Lächeln ins Gesicht...
Questa è la vita, disse il clown con le lacrime agli occhi, dipingendo un sorriso sul suo volto...
That's life, said the clown with tears in his eyes, painting a smile on his face...
그것이 인생입니다, 광대가 눈물을 흘리며 얼굴에 미소를 그리며 말했다....
C'est la vie, dit le clown, les larmes aux yeux, en se peignant un sourire sur le visage...

When I don't have the time to actively listen to my favorite artists on soundcloud, I just leave the stream running...while washing up in the kitchen, for example 😆

********************************************************************

A long, long time ago, there was an organ in the Christmas-decorated living room in his parents' house, where Frank grew up. Originally bought by his father for his two older siblings, they showed no interest in playing the organ. Frank, however, did. White and black keys and giving off strange sounds. 

So at the age of 9 he began to let his fingers circle on this instrument, searching for the right keys like on a typewriter. And another 9 years would pass before he could buy his first own instrument. Already at the age of 13 he made notes about the then current synthesizers, bought one magazine after the other and visited music fairs in Frankfurt, Germany.

His first keyboard was the Yamaha DSR-2000, which he bought in a music store near his hometown Biebertal. In installments! Finally he could develop himself further - away from the limited tonality of the small organ. The built-in 8-track sequencer helped him to reach unimagined heights. 
Little by little his equipment expanded and his ambition to create music like that of Jean-Michel Jarres came closer. Influenced by this and countless other musicians of the time, his interest grew, but he taught himself everything. Not even having attended a music school or being able to read music at all, he wrote one song after another and recorded them on the only medium available to him at the time: audio cassettes.
Many of these recordings are unfortunately lost forever, because cassettes are and were not the best recording medium. He has to try to play many of his songs from memory. 

In 2007, he fulfilled a long-awaited wish: to buy a KORG. He had always wanted to own one, but with the latest synthesizers at the time of their release having a purchase price of over 6000 D-marks (the currency of the time in the 1980s and 1990s), that dream of owning one was far away. So in 2007 he bought a used KORG 01W/FD at ebay. And as before with the purchase of the Yamaha keyboard, a completely new world opened up to him.

In addition, there were expanders and sound modules from Kawai, Roland and Yamaha (K1m, SC-55, QY10). Six years later his enthusiasm for making music ebbed and rediscovered his hobby (which it always was and still is). In 2018 in April he decided to present his music to a wider audience and uploaded his first song on the platform soundcloud. Since that time, thanks also to the ever-evolving software, he continues to evolve, experiment and relive his times through music.
