..beyond sleep, beyond the fading and the hidden

About Me



As a little kid I loved to imagine me creating songs as I hammered on the keys, always with the sustain pedal on the bottom, or hit the open strings on the guitar.

In 1996 Estrange released "A beginning" on October Records. 2005, almost ten years later the completion of the second album "Interim" was finished. Dirk Riemer the owner of Life Is Painful Records liked my work and signed me up.

The sound on "Interim" is, I feel, more mature and organic. A great deal of the record is about coming to a transformation but still be on the stage before the completion of the change.
