_____________________________________

Calaminus was a one-man-project from Düsseldorf/Germany, producing groove-orientated instrumental music with the focus on genres like Funk, Fusion, (Acid/Nu)Jazz, Groove and Rock/Pop, sometimes enriched by several influences of our Worlds' Music.
From 2009 - 2021, I created more than 200 original music tracks, released 5 albums and actively colaborated with some fine musicians here.

In 2021, I decided to end this project after all these years due to the lack of general interest in my music and my own personal interest in music at all.

----
Many of these original tracks - all arranged, recorded, mixed & mastered by myself - are still available under Creative Commons (CC-NC-ND) for free non-commercial use.

Any commercial use of my music tracks is strictly prohibited.

Here are the archived links to the  5 full album releases  of Calaminus

Cause ALL MY MUSIC during the years WAS MADE FOR YOU
and I enjoyed creating all the tracks for your pleasure!

Jazz/Fusion keyboard player, composer and producer.  Marketing, advertising, publishing and sales career.  Originally from Chicago, where I developed a strong appreciation for the blues and classical, and moved to New York, where jazz and the fine arts are so deep.  Key musical influences include Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Jimi Hendrix, Joe Zawinul and Weather Report, Chick Corea and Return to Forever, John McLaughlin and the Mahivishnu Orchestra, Stanley Clarke, Scott Henderson and Tribal Tech, Jeff Beck and Jan Hammer, Mike Stern, John Scofield, Pat Metheny, Emily Remler, McCoy Tyner, Bill Evans, John Coltrane, Jimmy Smith, Joey DeFrancesco, Larry Young, Buddy Guy, Santana and Earth Wind & Fire.   Former classical clarinet and piano player.  Unless noted, my music on SoundCloud was composed, recorded and performed using only keyboards.  An avid photographer.  Many covers here are my shots.  To see my photography look for Herbiejazz on Instagram or search for Herbiejazz on Google.  And a big thumbs up to SoundCloud and the SoundCloud community, and so many friends who have joined me to create.  Thank you all.
