about

This one has been a fundraiser track in 2022. You cannot buy it anymore, but it is available on most of the streaming-services out there.

This may not be my most polished work, it was done within two days in a very strange mood. I started doing "something with music" to take my mind off the things happening - and ended up composing while at the same time having a news-channel permanently showing all that madness on a little screen on my desk. I really wanted to turn it off, most of the pictures and texts were repeated constantly, there was kinda no point in having the device active all the time - but I just couldn´t.
Strangely enough even in this "setting" creating music did for me what it has been doing for 25 years now: When things come too close, when I reach that point where I think "Man, if you don´t stop thinking now, if you don´t stop walking on the edge of this abyss right now, everything may fall apart to a point of no return", then transforming this lurking nothingness into something has so often saved me in a way.
Therefore a lot of my tracks are like time-capsules for me - when I listen, I can exactly re-feel what was wrong (most of the time something was wrong) or what I was thinking about back then.
More and more I realized that this piece of music perhaps would be connected even closer to the very moment it was created than usually. I really hope that, given time, I will look at this one and say "These were some dark weeks in history and I remember them exactly when listening, but at least in the end it didn´t turn out as terrible as it could have".

about

Mental Minority Verden, Germany

"Producer Mental Minority is what Skyrim is to the PS3 world. Noteworthy, respected and continually revered, Bremen’s jewel in a synthesizer crown keeps shining alight in the darkness of the unworthy.. and the delusion of the untalented. Mental Minority makes it all seem real and extremely “Kraftwerk” & “Fear of Tigers” possible."
