I tried to make a song that gives a very wholesome feeling, like being away for a while
and when you come back you realize how much you missed and cherish your home and family.
I was searching for a good picture to go with the song and Carina saw this one with the little bears and fell in love with it. xD
This might be one of the cutest videos I've ever uploaded.

Hey everyone! So I finally have a new song for you.^^
I went into complete Fantasy territory again with this song, the way I composed this
is much more like a movie soundtrack than a "normal" song,
so that I can enhance the feeling of telling an actual story throughout the composition.

I experimented a bit with improvisations in here, some parts of the melodies are unedited,
they are the raw melodies I improvised while composing and I decided to keep them in the end result unchanged.
The title of the song is a direct homage to the artwork, it's a picture made by Selenada on deviantArt which she called "Forever Still".
I really hope you enjoy the music and that you have a beautiful day or night, whenever you read this text!

Fjölnir is one of Odin's many names; it means "the wise one", "the concealer", "he who is many" or "he who knows (all)".
I wanted to make a piece of music that can portray the Allfather's wisdom, strength and mysterious nature.
One who has traded his own eye to unlock the secret wisdoms of Mímisbrunnr.
The artwork by Natasa Ilincic depicts Odin with his two ravens, it was a big part of my inspiration for this song.

FINALLY a new 20min relaxing song.^^
This song was again very much inspired by the artwork, this time by Stephen Garret.
I started imagining the village, the people in it and the surroundings and while I composed the music
the fantasy became more and more fleshed out, until I could literally take a walk through Ohori Village inside my head
and knew the faces and names of the people living in it.
The name Ohori is a fantasy name I came up with btw, I thought it fits the character of the village.^^
I found out today that Ohori is also a Japanese family name so there's that. xD

The musical themes of the song kind of automatically adopted a fusion between South American,
Pacific Islander and South-East Asian styles and instruments (with an underlying classical structure),
which I don't think I've ever achieved before, so this song is quite special to me from both a musical perspective and an imaginative one.

I wanted to make a really classy, powerful Celtic hymn, something that evokes a sense of deeper meaning to life
and values that can easily be overseen in the modern world. Honour, devotion, nobility of spirit...
I could go on but I don't think I have to.^^
I fell in love with this amazing artwork by Marc Simonetti and decided to name the song by the same name as a kind of homage.
It's just absolutely perfect, I think it's one of the most beautiful artworks I've ever seen.

Japanese Fantasy Music - Honō no Megami (炎の女神)

Honō no Megami translates into "goddess of fire".
As some of you may know I'm fascinated by Japanese mythology and one of the Kami I always liked is Kagu-tsuchi, who embodies the element of fire.
Honō no Megami doesn't exist in Japanese mythology but it can be seen as what I imagine as the female version of Kagu-tsuchi.
I want to thank everyone who helped me with the Japanese translation very much, this title wouldn't exist without your help!^^
Also, the artwork by Xelandra is nothing short of PERFECT for this song, so a huge Thank You for that as well!

The title means "lake of tears" in Latin, it's a song that I made in the way I composed music around 2010, I even used the old instruments actually.
A song that I made specifically to help anyone that goes through a hard time and needs a melody that understands them.
A song that can help them express their grief and sorrow.

This song was supposed to be just a little medieval tune when I started it, but because of the artwork it turned into a love story.^^
I don't want to destroy the magic by explaining it too much, so I'll let you paint the story in your own imagination.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone! I didn't actually compose this song for this holiday but it's nice that it got finished at the perfect time to show it.^^
This song is part of my Celtic music story line that includes Prophecy and For the King among others.
Legacy is the latest in this story, it's set after the king's passing.
It's meant to evoke the feeling of deep gratefulness for the father of a whole people, one who has worked tirelessly until his last breath to make his children prosper.

Just a little tune, I used mostly old instruments for this one, the ones that I used back in 2011.
It's a song about a fictional character that actually only started to develop as I was composing.^^
I started the song with no plan at all originally.

A song about Celtic folk tales/mythology.
I wanted to make a song that concerns itself with fairies since a long time, I believe I actually haven't made one since about 2013.
Which is way too long.^^
You can write fairy in multiple ways but I chose the wording fae because it's in my opinion much more poetic,
and it's also a little homage to MTG Lorwyn.^^

Way too long video of me talking

Am 09.04.2019 veröffentlicht
I noticed I look very tense in this video, I'm really sorry guys, I somehow handled the anxiety even worse this time than the times before...
I had heart racing the entire time. It was a very bad idea to not do this for 2 years, that was way too long.
That's why it's good that I still have a lot of questions left, I will answer those soon too, hopefully less tense.^^

I made this song for Carina, it's our 4th wedding anniversary today.^^
Most of this song are first takes, which means I kept the first melody that I intuitively played
so that the end result is a song that really came from the heart.

It's been such a long time since I made the last 20min Celtic song, but here we are finally.^^
There isn't much to tell about this, I want everyone to be able to make up their own stories and imagination to this piece.
I hope you enjoy the song and that it can relax you and open up your creativity and imagination,
that's actually the whole point for why I do these long compositions.^^
