May 25 2018: ‘’Fighting the Storms’’ out now
Surprise! ‘’Fighting the Storms’’ is here, the second single of my debut EP Reliving.

I had so much fun working on this track. Originally it only consisted of some piano chords and melodies, but it grew out to be this epic rock song. A massive thank you to Riffs at Random for recording guitars, bass and programming drums! This track wouldn’t have been possible without you. Also, many thanks to TheDamian58C for your feedback on the early version!

Reliving is out June 8. Subscribe to the newsletter to get the new music first: https://bit.ly/2GybVPS

June 4 2018: Release week
After nearly 11 months of producing and preparation, Reliving is finally out this Friday! Massive thank you to all who have joined me on this journey and supported me during the creative process! All of your contributions, encouragement, likes, comments and enthusiasm has motivated me so much during these months, it means the world to me. I hope this thread has given you some insight into my way of making music. It took some time to finish the project, but I’m glad you stuck with me until the end.

To celebrate the release of Reliving, I’m hosting a special listening party on Plug DJ. I’ll be sharing insights into the meaning and creation of the EP and you’ll be able to ask me your questions. Join me this Saturday at 20:30 CEST in this Plug DJ room: https://plug.dj/reliving-listening-party . See you there!

Last but not least, follow me on Instagram to catch some sneak peeks :wink:
