This song is about an unforgettable night which I spent in one of my favorite holiday spots in Spain, a small village with a few bars only. However, each of these bars has a very specific character which is described in the song's verses.

From Bar To Bar

The idea to this song came up when I observed people hanging around in a gambling hall. Imagine a big hall with a number of slot machines which are flickering and making noise. I am not a gambler and have always been wondering what people are looking for here. The song’s atmosphere swings between melancholic ballad, ruminant reggae beats and slightly aggressive moments. It's recorded and produced in my home recording studio. Special thanks to Vera for this wonderful cover artwork.

Floods of information, nice but not easy to handle. If we consume news all day we can even get sick, like if we taste everything from a giant buffet. Backing vocals & cover artwork by Vera, sax by Chris Wagner.

Summer at the Sea

Nowadays, we are frequently, almost constantly, confronted with annoying outside influences. More and more often, people or even artificial intelligence try to tell us what's good for us and what we should do. But these pieces of advice and ideas are often misguiding, manipulative, and driven purely by commercial interests.
This song is about resisting those external pressures and instead sticking to your own agenda.
Many thanks to Vera for vocals and cover artwork and to Chris Wagner, saxophone.
