collaborations

It's my first and hopefully not last collaboration with the wonderful Dirk Maassen. 
I was very pleased when Dirk asked me to record a guitar part to his piece Déjà vu.
I recorded 2 versions, an improvised version and a more composed version. I decided to post my improvised version. It simply has more charisma and contrast to the piano.
Hope you enjoy ...
I appreciate every comment, but I'm on a journey and can not reply until end of August.

It's my first collaboration with the wonderful Noemi Bolojan from Vienna. This piece based on an older guitar piece of mine “Twilight No.3” of the “4 short twilight scenes”. She has created amazing music around my piece, a real earwig. Thank you so much Noemi. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Samoa collaboration   -   axelweiss/jensfelger

This Soundscape was inspired by Jens Felger's short pieces called "Fragments of a Journey". I sent this Soundscape to Jens and asked him to add his beautiful guitar playing/inspiration to this. In the true spirit of a "fragment of time"....a "fragment of a journey"....this was all done in one take. some dissonance...some consonance.....a moment in time. hope you like it...and thank-you Jens!

Fragments of a Journey-feat Jens Felger

Dedicated to my aunt who passed away a few years ago. Based on a poem, I wrote back then.

"Musical sounds vibrate the loneliness of my heart.
Pulsating shapes search for her body.
Melancholic tranquility, total memory loss, in the abyss of a mind that stopped talking about simplicity and harmony.
Her glow will always guide me.
Her voice reflects in me:“Love each other, forever”.

I am sorry not being there for you till the end.
You loved me as if I was your own child.
You filled my life with unattached images.
I thank you. I think of you. I love you."

I really wanna thank Jens Felger who collaborated with me in this track. His guitar performance speaked so deeply in me. Especially for this track, he created a deep emotional space. His work and interests move across and beyond various genres of music. You can access him @Jens-felger.

It was a real challenge for us to find „paths“ where we could find each other musically. In the end we found each other and I'm amazed about the result.
Thank you for your music and your patience Jack

This is my collaboration with guitarist Jens Felger. The guitar track he sent to me is great by itself. I decided to approach it with a soft touch and tried not to crowd the original guitar part. That was quite a challenge. Here is the final result. Thanks Jens for the opportunity of working with you, loved it!

This Moment
when you could turn
everything around
start it all over
again
with your feet on the ground

walk again
feel no fear
make all the difference
before and now

do you see
do your hear
to you feel
the heartbeat
the heartbeat of your life

this moment
when you could turn everything around
start all over again
with your feet on the ground

this moment
do you feel
the heartbeat
of your Life

• Rare Moments

rare.
fair.
care.
spare me.

tell me whats happening to you
in the arms of fools
how will I pull through
what am I to do

is someone ravaging your heart
isn't that my part
how will I fall apart
boy will I be dark

dangling, you left me hanging
I was so angry at everything in the whole world
zen & om
left alone
to grow
old

moments rare
thought you cared
I can't compare
oh contraire

moments rare
left me there
killed my care
but I was spared

tell me what's happening now
tell me who's ravaging now
how am I to live in doubt

Stems – unearth noise, stonecatcherye, bitzone & jensfelger

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.
