In A Dark Hole

Many may not know her: the little fee Tinkerbell. Once she was disappointed about her abilities. But thanks to her friends, her enthusiasm for what she was suited for grew. And she realized that only the abilities that are given to oneself are helpful for you and for others. A little fairy tale for big and small human children...part one of the story...more will follow 😊

Listen inside the story.......

Chanson hommage au groupe Indochine. J'ai imaginé cette chanson, comme si je l'écrivais pour Indochine, en reprenant leurs codes musicaux et leur façon d'écrire leurs textes. A cause de sa ressemblance assumée avec leur style, cette chanson se situe en marge de mon oeuvre musicale.

The Last Wing

The sixth of a planned series of extensions to my 2025 album OCHRE, recorded August and September 2025 in Birmingham. These brief, self-contained sketches are intended to sit alongside the original album, and to echo its themes and moods.

Six (Ochre extras)

Camios project consisted on developing musical pieces from original drum tracks by Micah Gettys (https://soundcloud.com/graphicsontelevisions). The group of different artist involved is called 'culelu', and found here:

On this one: I started jamming with xaphoon over nude drums for some days, and neighbours suffered the magical birth of Kabutomushi, which got metamorphosed by some other organic layers to become an adult Rhinoceros Beetle !!

Micah Gettys: drums
Ruizzoidman: xaphoon, bass & guitars

A small note on my own behalf: I have noticed that my playback figures have dropped dramatically. The statistics show that the number of playbacks has dropped from 2000 per week to just under 200.
On the one hand, this is frustrating, as everyone sees this as an indicator and confirmation of their work. On the other hand, figures are not particularly important, but one wonders what is wrong. In my opinion, SC has changed a lot, uploading tracks has become more complicated and constant security queries are annoying.
In addition, great artists are disappearing from the platform, partly by their own choice, partly because they have been banned, the algorithm has “recognized” them as spam and mercilessly deleted their account. I'm still a paying member, but my attitude towards this has changed...

Please let me know your experiences and impressions.

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 😆

By the way: this user-92853963 was my old link address and leads to the empty.... I AM NOT A ROBOT!

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

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.
