Excerpt from Album "Funkstille": Recording "Flower" in the studio. Somehow my approach got influenced by Ikebana, the japanese traditional arts of arranging flowers. It is such a lively, vibrant, elegant art. Each flower arrangement is highly situational, and depends on where or how it is placed in the room, the architecture inside and outside, the occasion of the arrangement, the season, the location and more situational aspects. Ikebana manages to create an harmony between opposing elements, between very differently looking shapes and colors. It is spontaneous and at the same time disciplined. A certain flower arrangement only exists as long as the flower is fresh , so it is often replaced after a few days. Ikebana is all of these elements and many more. It is spontaneous, beautiful but also transient, short-termed. In other words, Ikebana might be very similar to improvisation. From the album "Funkstille" , Release date: 26/11/25 on impakt Records Recording & Mix: Darius Heid Master: Michał Biel Emily Wittbrodt - Cello Jonas Gerigk - Doublebass Moritz Koch - Schlagwerk Alfredo Ardia - Electronics Darius Heid - Piano, Composition @impaktcollectivecologne @lukas.fehling.audio @edwardlugowsky @jonas_gerigk @emily_wittbrodt @alfredo.ardia @moritz_koch_percussion
