I am Kaptain Clocks. Leader of my ship that’s sailing the stormy seas. Sometimes the sea is at peace. Luckily, otherwise I would have been drown long time ago. There’s this magical moment when the first sun is rising after a life threatening stormy night over then peaceful waters.
I can’t avoid my fight.
Yes, I am a fighter.
But who’s my enemy?
Animals? Other humans? Money? “Things”?
Hardly.
My enemy is much smarter. “It” is invisible.
We are living in an age of enlightenment. We ought to know “more than ever before”. We forget, that in other times, people surely knew things we didn’t. We might even be ignorant. Arrogant!
We talk about spirit. Mindfulness. Awareness. Consciousness. Even Love!
But what’s that?
Somewhere within these mostly positive sounding words my enemy is hiding. Just right there! It’s ability to disguise itself from my wary eyes is stunning.
We know about the negativity of other words: Angst, hate, arrogance and many more.
We forget how easily these words are hidden when we talk about love, caring, home, friends.
That’s why our cunning enemy is sneaking inside – of us, of the ones we truly love and everywhere in between.
I’m not trying to enhance the negative sides that our lives surely must walk through. I just have to know whom I’m fighting with. It makes things so much easier. And full of joy.
That’s when Kaptain Clocks is entering.
He’s making the soundtrack for my fight – and hopefully he is inspiring you to find and win your own.
We are living in times of uncertainty and cruelty.
We always have! Our ancestors too. We never had a peaceful world. The last decades brutality and war was further away and – maybe – more invisible.
When things get more visible this is a big chance to find our side. To find our fight.
Not against other people. Not against the systems they have made.
But against the inner enemy all of us are fighting with. And many are losing. Because they don’t wanna see that our true fight lies within ourself.
My music is here to bring hope and energy for everyone who’s feeling the burden of our inner fight. It brings rest and peacefulness. And it embraces the confrontation with full power when it’s time – to fight our invisible enemy.
Wanna listen to my music?
Kaptain Clocks is a musician checking out all possibilities that sound offers. He’s a true sound explorer, not only always searching for the most profound ways to express his own ideas and feelings but also to widen his own sound horizon. Every day he is amazed about the power of the ear. The world offers so much profound listening experience and he feels that it is his call to share the sounds of his life.
Over the years he had the chance to learn several instruments to support his sound visions. He grew up playing cello, later started playing electric bass and finally thought to have found “his” instrument when starting with the double that he finally studied, focusing both on jazz and classical music.
You’ll find his whole story here.
Since 2015 his childhood excitement for rock music has returned and inspired him to begin with playing drums and guitar. In these days he is finally able for the first time in his life to express his own ideas. So before returning to his deepest yearning of founding his own family like band he has to record his first album all by himself. It is like a daily ritual, his holy prayer: The profound experience of shaping all aspects of his sound by himself.
That’s why he has deepened his knowledge about acoustics, recording and mixing, further on heading into mastering for sure!
It is our time that allows us for the first time ever to shape all of these aspects of capturing music all by ourself. It’s not that the Kaptain doesn’t know that he will need many other people in order to achieve his biggest sound visions.
But starting at this point on his own reveals such beautiful experience, diving into all different aspects of a music production, shaping it all the way he feels is right for his music.
Best place to follow his musical journey online is at this moment his YT-channel.
