Hello friends,

How are you doing? I hope that things are well with you! 

Another lockdown seems to come down on us here in Germany, which concerns most of us here indeed, but again I want to use this time of relative isolation as productively as I can, so a lot of work is along the way! I am doing my best to stay positive and psychologically stable. So structure and discipline seem to become my best friends for the months to come.

First, the important things – please pm me with your home addresses. We are preparing some surprises for you and would love to send them to you per post. Of course I can promise, that your personal data is safe with me, so don’t hesitate to do so!

A bit about allocation of funds that I managed to save from Patreon. I am super excited to share that I’ve started taking vocal lessons with an amazing teacher here in Berlin. I feel so good about it! We have a very good connection and my voice is going through some nice transformations. The rest of money I am keeping for the production of our next album. 

And here we come to the most exciting part. I found a new partner in crime, Scrote Esquire, who joins me as a lyricist and co-producer. 

So here we are – a band of two, creating, playing around with the sounds, in the making of our new album under the working title ART BRUT. Expect more folk, more psychedelic sound, and positive vibes! So far we’re 4 songs in.

Here is a little lyrical sneak peek:

BIRD UNDERWATER

When the walls rise

Tears summon rainbows before my eyes

Birds underwater

Fishes in the sky

Lies, I am too tired to recognize

I pray for clarity

I’m looking to something

What it is, I do not know

Maybe a mirror, maybe a window

The mirage of community

Appears to glow

And if I shatter it

Will I be left alone?

More news and updates early next month! 

Love,

Gene and Scrote
