about

I’ve been working on this for so many months now, songwise years actually. Some of the songs have taken long, some of them just came to me, I could hear them almost ready in my mind and „only“ had to transform them into sound. Then others were a battle, not wanting to get finished. Over time I evolved as a person, my taste changed and I realized the importance of letting go, understanding and accepting that a song is a reflection of a state of mind, a chapter of my life, a moment, a memory. And that working on it endlessly wouldn’t necessarily make it better. Now they are finished and will be out in the world soon and I can’t change anything any more. And that feeling of completion is a great one.
Seeing all five of them finished on the EP makes me very proud. They all are personal and dear to me. I think if you listen to someones music, you can get to know the person and it’s inner world in the most intimate ways. I am very grateful for being able to do that. To have the chance to share a part of me with all of you.
Your support means a lot to me and I am looking forward for everything new and exciting to come.

Love.
M
