Berlin Drive

A poetic collaboration with @sugaarpan (sugaarpan.bandcamp.com) about lost love

LYRICS in German:

ER_BEDEUTETE_IHR

Er bedeutete ihr

sein Bild
im Nebel trübt

Sehnsucht
schwer in ihrer Seele wiegt

Er floss mit ihr
auf all ihren Wegen

wunschesgleich
doch stumm
der Beginn einer Liebe

tief liegend strömt in ihren Adern
allein sein Sein schweigt für sie fern

hoffnungsverhangen
öffnete sie

so groß wie die Welt
die sie dachte mit ihm

Gutes im Herzen
aus dem Grau
ein Lichtstrahl für
ihn auf dem Weg
als vertraue er ihr

allein

Er bedeutete ihr

ER_BEDEUTETE_IHR

Music created for the "Cities and Memory" project, using a recording of starlings' murmurations in Otmoor (Oxfordshire) https://citiesandmemory.com/
Moors have always been mysterious places to me. Maybe it is because of its role in Arthur Connan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles, or because of my interest in railways, that made me discover the most remote station in Great Britain, in the middle of Rannoch Moor, Scotland.
Starlings murmurations are a mystery about collective behaviour. Their shapes always catch us by surprise. Their how, why and what are always fascinating. For this piece I have processed the original murmurations recorded in Oatmoor (Oxfordshire), by means of different transformative pipelines. I wanted to create something slightly mysterious, maybe menacing but not so much, as some murmurations and moors can be at times. May the music help listeners see and feel how those flocks become like a single massive entity, not only because they make a shape in the air but because, in this track, they are affected by a kind of transmogrification that turns them into otherworldly creatures. They then move the air, the whole sky fabric, in mysterious ways. Something in the way they move...
