As ever this Armadillo music was entirely improvised live, on the spot, for the moment, the mood, the people and the vibe.
This one’s from 13th January 2025. It’s a funky 10 minute section taken from a hypnotic spacey jam.

Don’t expect a 3 minute pop song! …but music to put on and leave on... and be drawn in by … the groove will just keep on rolling… and the tune will just keep on wandering wherever it takes us…

Recorded in one take: guitars via LS-P5, drums on an Olympus digital dictaphone, the rest D.I.-ed. Main vocals and lead guitar fully live with other guitar layers, bass, backing vocals and horns laid down live into a Boss RC-600 looper. Drums by Lumbeats FD. (A96 )

May it get you the fonk on...

Sometimes The World - live improvisation (A96 sub10)

Scene 42

🇬🇧EN:
Hoson zēs, phainou – As long as you live, shine! ✨
In life 🌱 we can and should(!) show who we are and let our inner self unfold. 🌸

These words, written nearly 2000 years ago in Ancient Greek 🏛️, were found on a tombstone in Tralleis.
They encourage us to recognize our own talents 🌟 and bring them into the world. 🌍
We should not focus too long on grief but make the best of the precious time ⏳ we are given. 💖

Because, as it continues:
To telos ho chronos apaitei – Time brings the end on its own!

🇩🇪DE:
Hoson zēs, phainou – Solange du lebst, leuchte! ✨

Im Leben 🌱 können und sollten(!) wir zeigen, wer wir sind und unser Inneres zur Entfaltung bringen. 🌸

Diese vor knapp 2000 Jahren in altgriechischer Sprache 🏛️ verfassten Worte stammen von einem Grabstein in Tralleis.
Sie ermutigen dazu, die eigenen Talente 🌟 zu erkennen und diese in die Welt 🌍 zu tragen.
Wir sollen den Fokus nicht zu lang auf die Trauer legen, sondern die kostbare Zeit ⏳, die uns gegeben ist, bestmöglich nutzen. 💖

Denn, wie es weiter heißt:
To telos ho chronos apaitei – Das Ende bringt die Zeit von selbst!

Modular techno live set performed @ Pulse, Kaista UG. 5.4.2025

I truly enjoyed playing this set a lot, despite some rough edges here and there! 
It was a magical night indeed, even the camera started tripping on it own within the last minutes.

Arian Hagen (* 07.01.1994) is a composer/producer from Halle (Germany). His sound is a mix between classical pieces and atmospheric electronic compositions. Influenced by musicians like Radiohead, Massive Attack, Burial, DJ Premier, Flying Lotus, Clint Mansell and Philip Glass (etc.), Arian composes emotional and atmospheric pieces of music. Typically you will hear him lay down slow and driving drumbeats with precise additions of textured electronic sounds as well as live instruments and field recordings. He also likes to compose solo pieces for his main instrument, the piano. Arian likes to treat his music like a diary, capturing his emotions and experiences in sounds. The visual aspect of his music is also important to him and always on his mind while producing. After sharing his music on Soundcloud he quickly got a following. Later he was chosen as the "Soundclouder Of The Day". 
In 2013 he released his first album ("The Meaning Of It All"). It features some of his Soundcloud friends and an artwork by the indian 
artist Archan Nair. 

Between 2013 and 2018 he concentrated on producing conceptual EPs.

In January of 2019, he released his second LP "An Oasis Within The Chaos"

Recently he produced two tracks on Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire's self-titled album and his third studio album, "Balanceakt".

Klangklinik from Basel, Switzerland, is devoted to improvised jam sessions, exploring experimental sound worlds combined with readings and multi media performances. In the beginning, in 2007, Klangklinik was a loose collective, by now they consist of 7 musicians, surrounded by a variable circle of guest musicians, who get invited for private and public jam sessions. The visual artist EddiE haRA has contributed live painting as a part of Klangklinik in public performances. Klangklinik uses classic rock instruments but the sound remains experimental and is strictly improvised with a repetitive character. Sometimes psychedelic, sometimes noisy soundscapes and accidental songs are being woven out of the moment.
