How can we amount to more than books upon a shelf, 
if everything we think we know, 
we learned from someone else?

The world does not need another song. There are plenty of them, for all occasions and moods. The selection is vast. A person could devote his entire life to listening to every song ever recorded by anyone who has ever lived, and they would still not have enough time to hear them all. One might even expect self-slaughter to occur well before even the midpoint of such an experiment.

Thus, it logically follows that the world is in no great need for songwriters. We have all the songs we need. Why make more? If you have 100 feet, there is no need for 1,000 pairs of boots. It just does not make any sense.

However, as long as Todd O’Keefe persists in bucking logic and making songs, one might take the time to listen to one. Like a well-made salted snack, or even a bite-sized sweet, you might find that having heard one, you’d very much like to hear another. In this way, Mr. O’Keefe is as much a singer/songwriter as he is a confectioner.
While we’re on the topic, he happens to be a sweet man to boot. Which of course brings us full circle: to candy and boots. As I’ve suggested already, we have enough of both. But a well-made boot or a particularly flavorful bonbon, once worn or dissolved, makes you forget about all of the other boots and bonbons. In that moment, there is only you, the boots, the bonbons, and the world dissolves away, much like the candy.

So, yes, we have enough songs and Mr. O’Keefe insists on writing more. But listen to one and you’ll be likely to tip your hat and suggest to yourself silently, "Yes, OK. Perhaps just one more would be fine." You will spoil your dinner, but sometimes this is necessary. Things get spoiled. Need I remind you of that too?

Kalle macht deutschprachige Singer/Songwritermusik. Er spielt Gitarre. Und dazu singt er. Ohne erhobenen Zeigefinger. Nur so. Dabei kümmert er sich ums Große. Und ums Kleine.

Dream System 8 is the Los Angeles based collaboration between songwriters Erica Elektra (Hearts of Palm UK) and David Klotz (Fonda).    Recording with an assortment of vintage Roland, Yamaha, Korg and Moog synthesizers from the early 1980’s, The Dream System has crafted a collection of synth-pop songs inspired by artists like Vangelis, The Human League, Tangerine Dream, Giorgio Moroder and Duran Duran.   You can find all of their releases on Spotify and Apple Music.

Ella Janes is an independent singer/songwriter whose music feels like a conversation - tender, unguarded, and deeply human. With her poetic storytelling and delicate fingerstyle guitar, she draws listeners into moments of reflection, weaving experiences into songs that linger long after they’ve been heard.

Growing up in Winchester (UK), Ella found her earliest audiences while busking on the streets of her hometown, her timeless sound echoing the influences of artists like Simon & Garfunkel and Françoise Hardy. Her lyrics, shaped by a love of language and a curiosity about life’s quiet corners, speak of change, belonging, and finding beauty in the in-between spaces. 

In 2018, Ella joined Jools Holland on his UK tour, performing in venues across the country, including a milestone appearance at the Royal Albert Hall in London. The following year, her debut album The Hypnotist came to life through a successful Kickstarter campaign, supported by a community of listeners she’d met through her travels, busking days, and time immersed in Berlin’s folk scene.

Released in 2020, The Hypnotist was recorded in collaboration with long-time collaborators Hugh Fielding and Thomas White. The album is a tender exploration of heartache, healing, and life’s quiet turning points, wrapped in songs that feel both personal and timeless.

In 2024, Ella unveiled three new singles that reflect a natural evolution in her sound - thoughtful and tender, yet quietly assured. With more releases to follow in 2025, her work continues to trace the delicate balance between vulnerability and strength, promising an ongoing journey of stories yet to unfold.
