Art Bei Ton Podcast 118: eRee

There was a time when memories had a heartbeat.
When love could be touched, before it was uploaded into the ether.

Now only fragments remain, pulses trapped in wires, whispers echoing through broken code.

Circuits in Silence drifts through that liminal space where emotion becomes electricity.
It breathes in slow motion, analog warmth against digital cold, longing wrapped in reverb.
The voice is distant, dissolving, a ghost in the current calling from somewhere between loss and infinity.

As the rhythm unfolds, time bends. Each beat stretches into eternity, each silence hums with memory.

It is a signal for the soul, a requiem for connections that never fully die.

Somewhere beyond the neon rain, the bass keeps going...
because even in silence, the circuits remember.

Grafenberg – Circuits in Silence
Cosmic Slow Techno · 2025

A slow descent into emotion suspended in time.
Analog warmth, digital cold, and the memory of love preserved in code.

Lyrics:
I called your name in empty rooms,
The echo fades, but not the wound.
Your shadow sleeps beneath my skin,
I lose you over and over again.

My circuits ache, my soul shuts down,
You're everywhere, you're not around.
Dancing alone in neon rain,
This beat can’t drown the silent pain.

I saved your voice in broken code,
But playback hurts more than I’m told.
No touch, no face, just phantom light,
A love erased in endless night.

I remember...
but you’re gone...
and still,
the bass keeps going.

Grafenberg is a sonic explorer whose path spans from the DJ booth to the edges of contemporary electronic storytelling.
After two decades of collecting and spinning techno, minimal and deep underground records, he transformed that passion into a personal language of textures, contrasts, and emotion.

His debut EP on Traumwelten marked the foundation of this identity — a bridge between analog warmth and cinematic melancholy.
In 2025, Grafenberg released his first full-length album, No Saints, No Proof, a conceptual work that blurred the line between the dancefloor and introspection, exploring faith, illusion, and human contradiction through sound.

A month later, he unveiled Circuits in Silence, a standalone single that expanded his universe into Cosmic Slow Techno — a meditative, hypnotic reflection on memory, loss, and the human pulse within the digital void.

Grafenberg is now preparing Erebion’s Dominion, a forthcoming album set for late 2025 or early 2026. Conceived as an immersive narrative between cosmic darkness and redemptive light, it continues his exploration of emotion beyond genre — where analog synthesis meets metaphysical storytelling.

Forever chasing innovation and raw emotion, Grafenberg bridges the legacy of techno with uncharted horizons, where every note carries a fragment of dream, decay, or transcendence.
