[Verse]
The night is a whisper, soft and low,
A rhythm beneath where the breezes go.
Shadows sway, the candles gleam,
A fleeting step in a moonlit dream.

[Chorus]
Oh, the moonlit tango calls my name,
A dance of fire, a timeless flame.
Round and round, the world’s a blur,
Lost in the spell of him and her.

[Verse 2]
The ocean hums in a velvet hush,
Stars above, a golden blush.
Every glance, a secret shared,
A step, a spin, a heart laid bare.

[Prechorus]
Fingers trace the lines of fate,
One more dance, we hesitate.

[Chorus]
Oh, the moonlit tango calls my name,
A dance of fire, a timeless flame.
Round and round, the world’s a blur,
Lost in the spell of him and her.

[Bridge]
The clock may tick, the dawn may creep,
But this rhythm’s ours to keep.
In the sway of hips, the brush of skin,
The night begins where we begin.


Moonlit Tango

A whisper of danger, a glint in your eye.
Your name is Bond, a world in your stride,
With secrets untold and hearts to bide.

Every note, a flicker of flame.
Footsteps trace the polished floor,
But it’s your voice we’re longing for.

A glass tilted, the world’s askew,
Tell me, Bond, is it me or you?

Your name is Bond, so suave, so sly,
A whisper of danger, a glint in your eye.
Your name is Bond, a world in your stride,
With secrets untold and hearts to bide.

A dance of deception, nowhere to hide.
Your words are silk, your touch a flame,
Yet I wonder—who’s playing this game?

In your gaze, I see us thrive.

But here, my love, we’ll never say never.

Each note a story we’ve always known.

A fragile thread, a tender snare.
We move as one, through time and tether,
Bound by the vow to never say never.

The heart remembers, in its secret ways.
A step, a spin, a world to sever,
But here, my love, we’ll never say never.

Here are the lyrics:

[Verse]
On her majesty's request, I danced,
A flicker of fire, a fleeting chance.
The floor was waxed, the lights were low,
Her eyes commanded, and I followed the glow.

[Chorus]
She whispered softly, "Take my hand,"
A kingdom of rhythm at my command.
Step by step, we wove the thread,
On her majesty’s request, my heart was led.

[Verse 2]
Her shadow stretched like the moon's embrace,
Each movement a secret, each turn a chase.
The air grew heavy with her perfume,
A tango spun in a velvet cocoon.

[Prechorus]
The night sighed, the clock held still,
Her majesty’s will, my heart to fill.

[Chorus]
She whispered softly, "Take my hand,"
A kingdom of rhythm at my command.
Step by step, we wove the thread,
On her majesty’s request, my heart was led.

[Bridge]
Was it love or a royal decree?
Was I the subject, or was I free?
Each step a question, each spin a plea,
On her majesty's request, I ceased to be.

On Her Majesty's Request

octave plateau – music by Gerhard Andreas Schreiber

Gerhard Andreas Schreiber. Since the 1980s,  composing and producing music under the name octave plateau. What began in the shadowed clubs of the post-punk era and the neon-lit pulse of the Neue Deutsche Welle has grown into a lifelong journey through diverse soundscapes and emotions.

Back then, working with artists like Markus, capturing the spirit of a generation in transition – between analog grit and melodic futurism. But the musical path didn’t stop there.

Today, octave plateau bridges four distinct yet emotionally intertwined genres:

Smooth Jazz – music like warm light on late-night streets; gentle grooves, atmospheric chords, and melodies that breathe and linger. It’s the sound of reflection and release, crafted with subtlety and soul.

New Wave – shimmering synths, melancholic harmonies, and rhythm-driven storytelling. A style rooted in the 80s, but constantly reinterpreted to reflect the tension and beauty of the now.

Deutscher Schlager – emotional, melodic, and lyrical. I approach this genre with both respect and reinvention – drawing from its traditions while reshaping its form for contemporary ears.

Neue Deutsche Welle (NDW) – raw, ironic, and rhythmic. NDW has always been the rebellious heart of octave plateau, combining German lyrics with electronic textures, punk aesthetics, and a dose of playful absurdity.

In 2024, these songs – some newly written, others rediscovered and reimagined – are being produced in the octave plateau studio in Berlin. Here, the past and the present meet in harmony and friction. Analog synthesizers hum alongside digital clarity. Stories unfold in every track – sometimes with a wink, sometimes with a sigh.

octave plateau is not just a musical alias. It’s a lifelong project, a personal archive, and a sonic playground. Welcome to a place where genres speak to one another – and where every note has a memory.
