a poem

This week I wanted to work out a few fragments I had in mind, but after a first recording I felt there is no need to work them out. As a set of six pieces, they are telling the whole story to me. Here is the first one.
The others will follow soon. 
from the album "2 Days & a Year"
Enjoy...

a few months ago, Fivos asked me, if I would play to one of his piano pieces. Finally I had time to record and it was a great pleasure to feel myself into his wonderful music. 
you can hear the original version here: https://soundcloud.com/fivosvalachis/nocturne-29-oct-looping

Don't miss his wonderful music, find him @FivosValachis

2 days and a year

a few days ago Steffen aka bitzone ask me, if I would contribute some pieces to his new soundcloud-group for music and sound with the maximum length of a minute - the "One Minute Group".
I felt immediately inspired and had a creative day in my studio. I have just improvised and recorded what wanted to come out. At the end of the day I had 8 one minute pieces, the minute sketches. 
from the album "2 Days & a Year"
Hope you enjoy....

Coming home from the album „Lights & Spirits“.
A saying of the nomads in North Africa says that the home is where your campfire burns in the evening.
The "Berber" on the cover picture is actually me in the Sahara.
Enjoy...

Coming Home

I know it's been a while. Hope you are all well. I composed these days a loose jazz ballad. Not quite common for me, but made a lot of fun. The rhythm section (bass & drums)is programmed. Hope you enjoy.... 
Have a nice summer wherever you are.

This Track is exclusively made out of samples I recorded with my Nylonstring-guitar.
The sounddesign is made with the Kontakt-Sampler.

It's a joy to work with Davide Costa, both musically and personally. I love his inspiring and passionate feeling for deep expression. 
I guess we will find time and muse to work together on future projects.

Dreamers - Jens Felger & London-DC

Time is different in music.
 Close and friendly it is drifting by
sometimes flying, sometimes even 
standing still, but never passing. 
Nothing gets lost – the first tone 
is not older than the last one.

All music is child of its time, but not bound by time. 
It arises from moments and lives in people.  
Listening to music you make it your own.

My name is Jens Felger and I live in the southwest of Germany.
I'm a composer, guitarist & music teacher.
I love music of nearly every style and I live music whenever I can.
Creating & listening to music is my elixir of life.
The classical guitar is my musical base camp and at the moment 
I'm concentrated on creating music for this instrument. 
I'm not focussed on a specific style but I can't deny my classical background.

recently I had the great honour of being soundclouder of the day

Sharing music and the emotions within on social networks gives me a peace I've never expected. Being part of this amazing & inspiring community on soundcloud changes the way I hear music, I feel music and influences the way I create music. Thanks to all of you for your fantastic support, this means a lot to me.
