It's been my new year's resolution for 2011 to spend more time making/recording/mixing music. To force myself into doing so, I decided
to put up this page and post one song I recorded every tuesday.
After eight months I couldn't go on with this. Having a stressful job and a family leaves not enough room to post on a weekly basis.
But I will continue posting songs every once in a while. If you don't want to miss a song, you can follow me on
SoundCloud or subscribe to my
RSS-Feed.
Since 2021 I'm part of a band again, Fahmi Friedrich Widmann, check our LinkTree page to see what we're up to.
Feel free to leave comments. And please share!

Another smelly song (see Claudia, week 22). This time it would be grass and charcoal. That's hard to beat in terms of coolness.

What a nice feeling I'm having listening to this song. Nevertheless if the lyrics is not "perfect English" since the feeling is far more important than that. ;)
