This is the main theme of the previously unreleased game Anthador. 
My intent was to create an adventurous, mysterious and heroic track that draws the player right into the game.

Anthador Main Theme

This is one of the dungeon tracks of the previous unreleased game Anthador.
I tried to create a desolate mood, referring to the desperation of the prisoners who have been captured or even died inside the dungeon's walls.

Ancient Dust

This is one of the dungeon tracks of the previous unreleased game Anthador.
What I had in mind was the ruins of a once great civilization that perished many centuries ago. But even after all these years adventurers are still awestruck by the remains of the ancient buildings.

Faded Glory

This is one of the dungeon tracks of the previous unreleased game Anthador.
While I was composing, I imagined a "lament" (passionate expression of grief in music form) that is sung to the people who lost their life in the dungeon.

Lament for the Lost

This track was a "happy accident". 
The real main theme was already composed and as I noodled around on the piano and stumpled upon this slow ostinato. It was soothing but also inspiring, like a canvas that wanted to be painted.
So I layered the main theme melody on top of it and it was a perfect match! Although this track wasn't originally planned it just had to be added to the soundtrack.

Anthador Main Theme (Reprise)

This is one of the open world tracks of the previous unreleased game Anthador.
I tried to convey a mixture of two feelings: the enthusiastic mood of leaving home to explore the world and it's opportunities as well as the pain of parting.

Farewell from Home

This is one of the open world tracks of the previous unreleased game Anthador.
Its mellow and meloncholic mood made me think of a foggy landscape - like a mountain pass veiled in clouds.

Veiled in Clouds

This is one of the open world tracks of the previous unreleased game Anthador. While composing it I had a rough but beautiful shoreline in mind - sometimes calm and peaceful and sometimes wild with waves clashing against the rocks.
As a musician the guitar is my first instrument. So I was curious how a live recorded guitar would blend into an orchestral composition made of virtual instruments. I'm quite pleased with the results.

Along the Shoreline

I composed this neat little piece as a soundtrack to this video:

This august I had a fantastic holiday in Denmark. I was able to get some nice drone shots of the beach and I wanted the soundtrack to transport the relaxed and calm feeling which me and my family had at this place.

Coast Of Årgab

This is one of the battle tracks of the yet unreleased game Anthador.
After I had finished the first attempt of this composition there was something missing. A lack of energy, character and vitality. So I decided to rework the composition and add another instrument that I'm quite familiar with from the past years as a singer-songwriter and frontman of my band: my voice.

Singing in this completely different style was a challenging but very exciting and fun experience. You may want to check out a short "behind the scenes" video: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/4zvCrhwvero

Point Of No Return

This is one of the battle tracks of the yet unreleased game Anthador.
While composing I pictured a castle under siege with constant waves of attackers that need to be warded off.
For this extremly stressful scenario I tried to create a frantic mood and a strong sense of urgency.

Fierce Resistance

Forward! There's only one thought, only one direction! 
The blood is rushing in your ears, your body is full of adrenaline. The breach is already nearby. What will expect you on the other side of the wall? Doesn't matter! 
Foward! There's only one thought, only one direction...

This is one of the battle tracks of the yet unreleased game Anthador.
The lines above were my mindset while composing it. Can you feel it through the music?

Rushing In

Last black friday I decided to extend my string libraries and bought CSS and CSSS. In order to really work my way into this libraries, get to know their strengths and weaknesses and to learn how to properly use it, I wrote this piece called "Sehnsucht" (German for "longing").
It took me quite a while to get the arrangement and sound right but here it is! :-D

Sehnsucht

I created this quick little piece as a background music for the instagram reels of my wife. Compared to the orchestral composition I'm currently working on for ages, it went lightning-fast.
As I quite like the result, I thought I might as well share it to with you :-)

An Invitation to Whistle Along

An Invitation To Whistle Along

Another quick and short composition to satisfy my creative urges while I'm still working on my longer, more elaborate orchestral piece.
I quite like the outcome and I think it's worth sharing.

The Ice Cage

The Ice Cave

The free "Irish Harp" from Native Instruments inspired me to compose this little piece. I was looking forward to using the "Shire Whistle" from Embertone for quite a long time and this has been the perfect opportunity.

A Dance in the Meadows

A Dance In The Meadows

This composition is a musical story about the foundation of Togakure-ryū, the legendary Ninjutsu school, in 1162. 
I wrote it as a soundtrack for a live show performed last weekend at the 40 year anniversary of Buyukai Germany.
It contains the following scenes:
0:00 - the battle „Awaze no Kassan“ where Nishina Daisuke, the later founder of the school, fights on the losing side
0:36 - Daisuke leaves the battlefield broken and defeated
1:20 - Daisuke is chased by his opponents and has to flee
2:15 - after a successful escape, Daisuke explores the mystic and majestic mountains of Iga
3:49 - Kain Dōshi, a warrior monk who has covertly observed Daisuke, reveals himself
4:10 - Dōshi accepts Daisuke as his apprentice - the turning point of Daisukes fate
4:26 - Dōshi teaches Daisuke who merges the new knowledge with his previous skills and develops the school Togakure-ryū
5:43 - after the years go by, the legacy of Daisuke lives on within Togakure-ryū and finally spreads all over the world

Togakure

After a busy period I'm back with a little composition and this time it's full-on christmas!
