In Silmaril




In Silmaril

I am, when I play and compose my music. The name is derived from the "The Silmarillion" by J.R.R. Tolkien. To me it means an emotion, a special state of mind. Something I relate to those mystic silmaril-stones in Tolkiens book.

I can only write music, which deals with me and my emotions. My lyrics are some kind of cryptic diary, I am not sure, if other people know what to do with it.

With my way of working and thinking on music comes the abandonment of fame and luxuriancy. I prefer this to being an accessary to the acoustic air pollution, which we have to listen to constantly.

In my studio

you are kindly invited to have look. It is a small home-recording studio. I use an old Atari-computer, several keyboards and an analog 8-track tapemachine. Though I use mainly electronic instruments, I try to create a "natural" sound in most of my songs. This is not always easy, but certainly very interesting. You have to "think" like a bass player, if you want to arrange a bass part in a song. I am going to play and record more acoustic instruments. Do you want to join me in a session?

In your CD-Player

you can get my music in summer of 2002. Here is a little preview:
Song Format Length Comment
The Stick mp3 6:15 The song "The Stick" combines music and my second passion, which is juggling. I wrote this song for my perfomances with the devilstick - some pictures of me on stage you find at my juggling pages.
The Falling Star mp3 1:58 This is one of oldest and sadest songs. And one of my best... Here is a excerpt of the chorus.
Through Glass II mp3 1:42 Yet another lovesong. This exceprt is the solo part at the end of the song.

Are you curios?

Do you want to know more about me and my music? Are you interested in a tape or CD? Do you want to drop a nice "hallo"? Just write me!
