The Rhythm of Nature- a fascinating phenomenon  

Working on my next release "Night and Day- Rhythm of the Earth" I remembered how I made "Daybreak at the Forest Edge". It was one of the first times I played to the rhythm of the natural ambience and I recorded it. Ravens cawed every now and then and to my great surprise the rhythm of the caws fell exactly into place after almost 5 minutes of music. It was the first time that I realized there might be a pretty precise rhythm inherent in the acoustic soundscape of nature which appears somewhat chaotic to us.

Bei der Arbeit an meiner nächsten Veröffentlichung "Night and Day- Rhythm of the Earth" erinnerte ich mich daran, wie ich "Daybreak at the Forest Edge" gemacht habe. Es war eines der ersten Male, dass ich mit dem Rhythmus der natürlichen Umgebung spielte, die ich aufnahm. Raben krächzten ab und zu und zu meiner großen Überraschung passte der Rhythmus des Krächzens nach fast 5 Minuten Musik genau an seinen Platz. Es war das erste Mal, dass ich erkannte, dass der akustischen Klanglandschaft der Natur, die uns etwas chaotisch erscheint, ein ziemlich präziser Rhythmus innewohnen könnte. 

Yippie- THE SINGING UNIVERSE has started 

This is the first post of my "SINGING UNIVERSE" blog. I´ve had the idea for this website for a long time and finally the only way to get it realized was to just do it. I'm sure there are people out there who love the power of nature as much as I do and that love music and art. So I hope we can connect. I hope you enjoy the music and the videos and I'm looking forward to make a contribution to the media world that I think is unique and enjoyable for a lot of people and helps to get us through this uncertain, and for some people scary times in a positive way.
