Late Summer Day In The Black Forest

A late summer day in the Black Forest, South Germany. Surrounded by the peaceful beauty of the landscape it’s amazing to see that the shapes and colours of mushrooms are just as surreal as corals, and that a walk through the woods can be just as amazing as a dive in the ocean.

Extrawelt – Not A Deejay Podcast 1

Back in the days, when these guys still operated under the names Spirallianz and Midimiliz, I was absolutely stoked about their music.

The result of this multi-dimensional sound collage…

Herr von Bias – Berlin Lichtenberg Graffitis 2014
