Specially when you get the chance to help create a space for people to meet, to be inspired, to fly on crazy wings together and be REAL it all makes sense.

Yesterday evening in Cesena/Italy we celebrated the opening of Sara "Swati" Usberti´s Tattoo- & Piercing Joint "Ritual Mood". Two weeks ago i got the invitation to work on a mural for her still-to-be-born place, and it´s been four days of triping on drawing and music.

If you are in the area check out Sara´s place, specially if you´re looking for the unusual...

Be magical, be wild, be a friend.

Knowing the band both artistically and personally for many years it was pure joy to work with them on the drawings for LOGOS, specially concerning the topic of sacred geometry their lyrical concept centers on.

This focus gave way to further expeditions into making accessible the unconscious, which more and more becomes the cornerstone for my travels, both graphically and musically.

Thumbnails contain Artwork detail.

The backside is featured on the inside print of the vinyl version and on the backside of the booklet included in the digipack version.

Walk right through.

I just finished working on the artwork for LU SILVER`S latest album "The soul comes back to boogie". Yes. Calaveras. Can´t stop...they just keep popping up in my mind...Check it out, C

Check out the frontcover for SICKER MAN´s latest album "The Missing" scheduled for early 2016 to be released via Blank Records/Autopilot. The Collage is based on a linocut made by Tobias Vethake and a photography taken by Thomas Neukum.

This is an album for fans of noise. And harmony. And Kafka.

Matthias from the new Berlin/GER-based booking agency ANTIPOP and me did this one together. Find the logo for the new underground force below...These guys got something coming. Prepare!
