as with most of my titles this is both, a spur-of-the-moment idea as well as a multi-levelled enigma 🤓
first and foremost: the song is a document of my sound atm... what kind of samples i'm interested in, what i'm looking for sonically and finally also an expression of the mellow mindstate i'm in not having performed or dj-ed in front of an audience for so many months...
the title is thus also an expression of an urge to travel again, to hunt new experiences and memories (hence the title fernW which is pronounced as the German term "Fernweh," d'uh?!)..
the song also marks the end of my Wiedikon residency and i'm having mixed feelings about this... it is the ever so common "lächelndes und weinendes Auge" situation..
change is inevitable blablabla... every end marks a beginning blablabla... BUT HEY! this really marks a beginning since it's the first song released by the promising Iruka Records label and i'm feeling honored, humbled as well as latently hungry to have contributed the first release – vielen herzlichen Dank an Euch! 🙏🏻
obviously there's still more to it, but some things remain private for now.
it would mean a great deal if you'd check it out and share it with someone... not necessarily on social media, but listening to it with someone next to you...
before this gets too touchy-feely: let me know, what you think! stream and/or download the living hell out of it! follow me on spotify! like it on the streaming device of your choice! add me to your playlist! or whateva you kids nowadays do
