This studio project is a dream come true for me. I have been able to recruit musicians who have exceeded my wildest dreams. Let me take this opportunity to thank them all. 

I wrote "Free and wild!" for Onita Boone, who has been a constant source of inspiration and encouragement to me. Onita shows people what it means to actually find your own voice. The song is about radically freeing yourself from everything old and letting go of everything. The soul wants to express itself here on earth and continue to develop through profound experiences. Therefore, we must not impose petty conditions on ourselves. So this song is a hymn to freedom and authenticity. But not at the expense of others. The lyrics say: "The best way to be free is to love ruthlessly". True freedom, moreover, is only possible if you allow yourself to be a nobody. Only then does one not fit into any kind of box. Let this song lift you up! 

The song "True" is dedicated to Marvin A. Smith. This man swiftly managed to lure me out of my corner and become even more myself, without even realizing the effect he was having on me. The core message is that we can not find ourselves by either striving to be special or by defining ourselves as a member of a group. It is a matter of stepping out of all preconceived notions, external expectations and most importantly, listening exclusively to the messages of our heart.


"I like the idea"
I am particularly grateful for Kate, my muse. With the other two songs the music effortlessly flowed out of me, as if it was dictated to me. In this song, I reached for the stars to create something truly new. The text is about finding heaven in the heart. What the heart wants for us is so much greater and even more glorious than anything we dare to dream. At the same time, this song foreshadows the path of my musical journey it is, so to speak, the bridge to the next album.

Eigentlich hatte ich den Song „Die Seele kennt keine Farben“ vor Jahren für die Flüchtlinge aus Syrien komponiert als einen Appell zur Völkerverständigung. Dann lag er über Jahre in der Schublade. Erst 2022 habe ich ihn tatsächlich veröffentlicht. Urplötzlich passt er traurigerweise wieder zum Geschehen in der Ukraine Anfang 2022. Wiederum gibt es viele Flüchtlinge. Ich hoffe, der Song erinnert uns alle immer wieder an die verbindende Kraft der Liebe. Und wie es der „Zufall“ so will, hat sich der Aufruf für mein eigenes Leben bewahrheitet - denn am Ende waren so viele Menschen unterschiedlichster Herkunft an der Entstehung der gleichnamigen EP beteiligt.
