Dark Days seeks strength in a world of darkness. It has a pulsating beat but still it’s easy to stumble from time to time. Music cannot be happy all the time but it should always give us strength and a new connection to the world even if it’s through disconnection. The song reminds me of moments on the dance floor when I was able to completely forget the others and myself, pride and insecurities and just dance.

Dark days
My heart aches

My heart aches
My heart aches
My heart aches
My hand shakes

Jonas Schilling - Dark Days

„Lichtamendedestunnels“ was written around an extremely simple electric baseline I recorded when I was looking for some analogue material to work on. 
The idea was to create something powerful. A feeling of marching through a dark night with flashes of light on a starry sky. 
Asteroids, supernovas, deep blue and green colors. 
Moments of resting while admiring the beauty of darkness and light, before we march on. 
Darkness can be scary but it can also give us strength when we realize that’s it’s made for us to admire and to find the light hidden within or beyond it.

Jonas Schilling - Lichtamendedestunnels

The idea to write a dance song that feels like a lullaby was interesting to me because usually the time we enjoy dance music is when we are wide awake, dancing trough the night and not lying in bed. But sometimes we dare closing our eyes on a full dance floor and it’s only ourselves and the music. We know that the others are around us but they feel more like a safe, warm blanket. We start sleepwalking or „sleepdancing“ and we can see flashes of colors. 
When I was younger I used to experiment a lot with lucid dreaming, which can be disturbing. Sometimes it can be difficult to differentiate what’s a dream and what’s not. But it can also show you how endless our brains capacities and creativity are. That lucid dreaming can free our mind.  That dreaming and being awake should not be seen as antipodes but rather two qualities of our mind that we can learn to connect and combine. To dream our lives as a way to live our dreams.

Jonas Schilling - Sleep

Another birthday…
I’m a little late
Wanna tell you bout 
Somethin great.

A little story about some friends 
making music, until the end…

Peaks and valleys, 
ups and downs…
This world keeps spinnin us
around...

We’ve got each other and that’s a fact-
brotherman, i got your back!

Where are we now?
Finding our way somehow….

Lost in space, I see the sun!
Remember your face and endless fun!

SOLO

Bring it all back- 
That’s what we do…
Another visit- 
I’ll wait for you

Years ahead and years behind
Just a lifetime in your mind…

Thank you again, 
For these memories-
Let’s make some more
if you please….

Just a Lifetime

When you let me down- Lookin for somewhere to land…    Trying to find myself- Lost in my own mind…  But it’s just another day- And I’m climbing higher!   The sky opens up - I see the clouds revealing me…   Here is my place  Amongst the stars…

My Place

NIGHTLIFE

Inspired by the cover of "Hello" used in a scene in The Umbrella Academy.

Hola

I'm a commercial photographer living in Kyoto, Japan.  Most of the time, I'm photographing buildings, interiors and people.  

When I have some time, I try to have fun with my favorite hobby... music!  

I hope you enjoy some of these ideas I've recorded.  I wish I had more time to refine them, but thanks for listening!
