Nova Sonic
After 28 months of production, on February 29, 2024
"Nova Sonic" was released.
Particulary noteworthy on this album is the use of a German
text in "Nebulae", which was already written in 1981.
Another special feature is in the title "Pillars of Creation (Bolero)" which, as the name suggests, is a composition in the classical style, my own bolero in the tempo "Moderato assai".

A nova is a transient astronomical event that causes the sudden appearance of a bright, apparently "new" star, that slowly fades over several weeks or many months. Causes of the dramtic appearance of a nova vary, depending on the circumstances of the two progenitor stars. All observed novae involve a white dwarf in a close binary system..

The 4-part EP-edition "The Iceland Moods"
On these 4 EPs the landscapes (Iceland I - Landscapes), the fascination of nature (Iceland II - Nature),
the special atmospheres and moods (Iceland III - Atmospheres)
and the historical beginnings (Iceland IV - History) are described.
All EPs are less electronic music in the typical art, because the typical elements are almost not existent.
The emphasis was placed on calm, long standing chords, unobtrusive, gentle basses (if it all)
and leads of natural instruments or vocals, which are subtly adjusted.
Nature sounds are in the foreground to emphasize the calm, relaxing effect.
Thus, the whole has the character of chill-, lounge-, wellness-, relaxation- and meditation music.
Treat yourself to a little break and enjoy the relaxing effect of the Iceland Moods Edition.
Have fun!

"The Iceland Moods" is "Iceland IV (History".

It is a kind of acoustic landscape description of the Bretagne, that tries to capture the mood of the sea, the forests and the wind. In order to get an overall impression, the trilogy was also produced as one song.
