i recorded this song in early 2011 but it did not make it onto the last EP “the fountain of youth has run dry”. although it does not fit my current mood at all, i thought i’ll share it anyways.
good news for people who love bad news: da ein Teil der Electric Ocean People krank ist, muss das Konzert morgen leider abgesagt werden.

amplify the good times…
a little news update for the upcoming gig in berlin: the Electric Ocean People and me will be joined by Marta Bala who will contribute her beautiful visuals to this lovely evening (check out her art at www.martabala.de) – will you join us, too?
ok, i don’t know about you, but i’m kind of confused these days, cause a lot is happening in alternative / hardcore music. it seems like At The Drive-In and Refused are back again, at least for some live shows. two bands which i certainly never expected to reunite, two bands who both released milestone albums. but is this all just about playing live shows again, which in my opinion is always kind of strange, or is there new music coming? and if there is new music coming, can it be as spectacular as their old material? i guess we’ll just have to wait what 2012 has to offer. at least we can expect some new tunes from mike vennart & gambler from Oceansize. check out their new playground www.britishtheatremusic.com to hear what they’re up to at the moment. to me this sounds quite promising, i like the electronic direction. let’s all stay tuned and keep our eyes and ears open.
