I wish you a happy New Year! I started the new cycle by recording the first Home Concert on New Year’s Day. The video will have it’s premiere on Sunday, 5th at 20:00 (CET). The one hour set is split in thee parts with improvised ambient soundscapes, mostly played live on the Osmose keyboard by Expressive-E.

What started as a spontaneous idea a few years ago became a tradition that I am looking forward to a lot: My three hours long birthday session! Most of the music will be improvised and recorded during the stream. I prepared some sounds and sequences but the idea is to leave enough space for ideas.

Welcome to the 65th edition of my Home Concert series. After my summer break in August (thanks for your patience) I recorded a new Home Concert. A lot of sequencer work went into this one, as well as spacey pads and solo stuff played live on the keyboards and my MPE controller.

Welcome to the 64th edition of my Home Concert series. Part 1 starts with pads from the Waldorf M and Iridium synthesizers, later joined by two sequences from the modular system. Part 2 is based on multiple modular sequences and some generative chords on the Minifreak. In Part 3 I invited a second Martin from a parallel universe to join me on the piano, while I play my “Elberfeld rain” field recordings and sounds from the Waldorf M.

Dear friends and listeners,

this week I recorded the 63rd edition of my Home Concert series for you. It follows the path of my recent livesets, which were a bit quieter, leaving more room for improvisation and spontaneous ideas. Sequencer work is also part of the set.

Dear friends and listeners,

Welcome to the 62nd edition of my Home Concert series. In this set I present four new (long) Ambient tracks. Most sounds are from the Arturia Minifreak, Sequential Pro3, Waldorf Iridium, my modular system and the Luftrum Ambient 3 library. All music was arranged, mixed and recorded in Bitwig 5.2.

This is the first part of my live concert at Emmauskirche in Wuppertal, recorded on March 22nd 2024. I tried to bring some of my already released music live on stage, so will find tracks from my previous releases and Home Concerts in the set. Part 2, which will feature more improvised and quieter Ambient music, is going to be released next week.

Welcome to the 59th edition of my Home Concert series. In this set I present five new Ambient tracks. I used a few instruments, which I had not in my studio for a while. Like the Moogerfooger Ringmodulator, the Modular system and the Waldorf Microwave 1 (in the rack off screen). Music was arranged in Bitwig using midi for the hardware synths and also a few software instruments. My main controller is the Midi Fighter Twister with a script for Bitwig.

Welcome to the first home concert of the new year. For this liveset I recorded five new tracks in between Ambient and Downtempo music. The Elektrons are back in business and taking care of the drums, some sequences and rhythmic patterns. Synthesizer sounds are mostly from my hardware synths, controlled via Midi by Bitwig.

The music of this Home Concert will be released on Bandcamp and the streaming services on the evening of Sunday, 7th.
