People, what to write here, better listen to the music, no ? Ok, sometimes it is good to write and yes, it's about a hippie boy musician carreer.
I was born in Germany in 1957. I started music with 14 years. With 16 I studied classical drummer and sound engineering.
With 16 I formed my first band - the 'Real Ax Band'

I formed this band after I had a quite heavy motorbike accident.The accident showed me how strong music can be to help you through difficult situation. From that time on I wanted to be an artist all my life. So it was not the music, but the power behind.
Because of my musical career I got the chance to travel a lot around the world and found the most musicians I worked with on this path. The selection came often more by 'some name it karma' or through a special moment where you feel 'yes, that's it'.
This moments are more important than somebody playes his instrument great or sings fantastic virtuoso....what doesn't mean that my friends & musical freundeskreis are not great musicians, ok ?
Satellites see more than human eyes, but the don't feel anything.
I will tell you later more about the musicians I met and I am working with....
For now I put here some names together I worked with to understand my musical career.
First of all; my main musical work as composer, producer and performer over the last 25 years up to now is with my band 'DISSIDENTEN'
