Elude

Venom

The title is taken from an article about the consequences of secondary diseases following preventable cases of measles due to anti-vaccination conspiracy theorists.
“Infaust” means unfavourable, often lethal prognosi

Infaustus

Starlings
(02:45)
Guitars, Bass, Keyboards

Inspired by the undulating flight patterns of a murmuration of starlings, as seen through a train window at dusk.

Starlings

Pi (03:47)
Guitars, Bass, Keyboards, Percussion

After finding out about compositions that incorporate the number Pi, this piece started as a semi-serious attempt to write my own variation.

Soon, I set a slightly different and more serious goal:
1. The piece should structurally follow the first seven digits of Pi
2. It should work as a coherent and musical piece regardless of this strict structure

It’s up to you to decide if it does.

Elephant
(13:43)
Guitars, Bass VI, Bass, Keyboards, Percussion

Initially inspired by fingerstyle guitarist Peter Ciluzzi, this is the closest I’ve come to a solo guitar song on this album. These parts are interrupted by the ever-present eponym.

100 Geisterfahrer
(German for “wrong-way driver”)
(04:35)
Keyboards, Bass VI

Always consider that you could be wrong.

Visibility
(04:15)
Guitars, Bass

The title is inspired by the slow, but steady shift to give up the right to privacy for convenience or an assumed increase of safety.

Patch
(25:23)
Guitars, Bass VI, Bass, Keyboards, Percussion

This piece refused to take a conventional form. The first loose ideas were formed in a wooden cabin in the Alps. Over time, more and more parts & variations emerged and the final structure was established.

The title refers to both this structure and the importance of adjusting to setbacks and unforeseen developments.
