about

silence is a study, if you will. Trying to cope with feelings of death, loss, depression and suicide and transforming these thoughts into sound.

released October 23, 2019

Voice sample in track 1 is taken from Fritz Bauer, a German Jewish judge and prosecutor who played an essential role in starting the Frankfurt Auschwitz trials.

„Ich glaube, es ist eine traurige Wahrheit, dass wir unserem Affenzustand noch recht nahe sind. Und dass die Zivilisation nur eine sehr dünne Decke ist, die sehr schnell abblättert.“

(english: "I think it's a sad truth that we are still quite close to our ape-like state. And that civilization is but a very thin blanket dissolving quickly.")
