This album is my personal idiosyncratic journey through the history of electronic and electro-acoustic music – although it’s not a straight and comfy trip, but a journey that more resembles Doctor Who’s TARDIS tumbling through space and time, finally landing somewhen and somewhere, and even when you think you have figured it out, something’s still not quite right – plus you don’t know which alien is lurking around the corner.

It’s also the first time I’ve worked with a guest musician, here Achim Breiling on Theremin. Thank you, Achim!
