PROGRAM NOTE
For many years, my wife Victoria and her FAB5 quintet (string quartet and percussion), have entertained thousands of people at numerous performance spaces and travel hubs in New York City, including Moynihan Train Hall, Oculus World Trade Center, Javits Center, and Chelsea Market. Having seen many of their shows, especially those at travel hubs, there's a certain tension and release you experience watching people wait anxiously for their trains, and then the release they feel when they are finally on their way. I've had these experiences myself, so I wanted to create two pieces that emulate these feelings.

Wound Up/Unwind consists of two contrasting pieces for string quartet and percussion. The first, Wound Up, for string quartet and cajón, imitates the feeling of being worried, anxious, and frustrated, especially while waiting to board a train. The second, Unwind, for string quartet and handpan, is calm and soothing, perhaps emulating the satisfying feeling of relaxing in a quiet seat as the train leaves the station. Both pieces can be performed independently and in any order.

Wound Up/Unwind is written for and commissioned by the FAB5 quintet with support from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.

A subtle, almost organic pulse rises within a textured and enveloping soundscape. Blending silky piano layers with delicately scattered sonic details, this track feels like an introspective drift — intimate, slow-burning, and contemplative. There's no urgency, no clear destination — only a carefully guided immersion where every frequency breathes. A meditative, cinematic piece designed for deep listening and sonic escape.

Sexy For You (2025 Maxter)

Drei Uhr Licht

Es ist drei Uhr. Die Nacht ist noch da, aber sie zieht sich zurück – nicht fluchtartig, sondern wie jemand, der leise die Tür hinter sich schließt.
Der Hof liegt in Dämmerung getaucht. Ein Blau, das kein Himmel ist, sondern Zwischenraum. Die Feuerstelle glimmt noch, zwei Schatten sitzen dort – nicht wach, nicht schlafend. Nur gegenwärtig.
Zelle – nein, so wird er nicht mehr genannt. Jetzt ist er Teil, nicht Bezeichnung. Die Frau neben ihm blinzelt ins erste Licht, als könne man darin Zukunft sehen. Ihre Tasse ist leer, aber warm. Sein Stein liegt zwischen ihnen, nicht mehr als Zeichen, sondern als Teil des Bodens.
 Der Wald beginnt zu reden, anders als in der Nacht. Jetzt ist er fast freundlich, ein Rascheln wie Gespräch, ein Vogelruf wie Gruß.
Die Wagen glimmen noch – gelbe Vierecke in dunkler Struktur, wie Puzzlestücke von Leben. Darinnen: Atem, Matratzen, Nähe.
Der Hof? Er atmet tiefer. Nicht schwer. Nicht laut. Nur deutlich.
 In einem Riss nahe der Wendeltreppe ist das Moos gewachsen – über Nacht, wie etwas, das Zeit versteht.
Und Zelle – oder wer er jetzt ist – steht auf. Langsam, ehrfürchtig. Er streckt sich nicht, denn dieser Tag verlangt keine Körperhaltung. Er verlangt Präsenz.
„Es ist der Moment, in dem alles still wird, und gerade deshalb beginnt.“
Die Frau nickt. „Drei Uhr Licht,“ sagt sie. „Die Stunde, in der sogar der Verfall pausiert.“
Ein Vogel steigt über die Bäume. Nicht schnell. Nicht zielsicher. Aber als wüsste er: Heute wird neu geschrieben...

Fortsetzung folgt am nächsten Sonntag um 10h.

Raindrops

A high-energy, infectious groove built for the dancefloor. This track fuses a driving, four-on-the-floor funk-house beat with a soulful, percussive guitar hook that you won't forget.

But listen closer, and you'll find a cinematic short story in the lyrics. "Dallas Night Run" is a "serious-funny" tale of a young couple's chaotic night out, escaping threats from all sides, fueled only by the defiant, joyful energy of their love. It's the sound of resilience you can dance to.

A track for the club, with a story for the soul.

HEARTS ON FIRE #djmix #ShAnkAri-touch #Rapnotech

"Ersetzt" is an upbeat German pop song that critically examines the future of work. What happens when machines, robots, and AIs take over all jobs? From cashiers and cleaning ladies to doctors and artists—no one seems to be needed anymore.

The song combines catchy pop melodies with a dark vision and energetic instrumentation. A soundtrack for the question: Are we abolishing ourselves?

-----------------GERMAN----------------------

„Ersetzt“ ist ein schneller deutscher Popsong, der sich kritisch mit der Zukunft der Arbeit auseinandersetzt. Was passiert, wenn Maschinen, Roboter und KIs alle Berufe übernehmen? Von der Kassiererin über die Putzfrau bis hin zum Arzt und Künstler – niemand scheint mehr gebraucht zu werden.

Der Song verbindet eingängige Pop-Melodien mit einer düsteren Vision und energiegeladener Instrumentierung. Ein Soundtrack für die Frage: Schaffen wir uns selbst ab?

Ersetzt - Jetzt schaffen wir uns ab

A reflective, mournful piece from Before I Forget by The Jeremias Langsämmer Ensemble, featuring lofi piano, cello, and subdued strings. This contemporary minimal classical track blends intimate piano melodies with gentle orchestral strings, perfect for focus, study, or contemplative listening.
