about

Before the final production of this album, I was often outside and I looked at the sky, which was grey and overcast, the phenomena of Nimbus clouds. That inspired me to create this album.
Creating a mental atmosphere with grey clouds and calming background music can be a captivating experience. Imagine a scene where the sky is covered in thick, grey clouds and there is a sense of quiet eeriness in the air.
To face the grey sky inspired me during several daily walks through my neighborhood in Berlin/Kreuzberg and in some rehearsals during that days, which I recorded live in our living room. In order to complete the picture in my head, I selected the excerpts that suited me best from several recordings of different samples.
All recordings were made in a live situation and in one take.
Play these tracks quietly in the background and let the music merge with the visual images of the grey clouds. Together they create a haunting and eerie experience that invites reflection and an air of mystery.
