Shamani's Musik ist in vieler Hinsicht ungewöhnlich. Sie ist nicht festgelegt auf eine bestimmte Richtung, sie folgt den Stimmungen des Spielers, seiner mitunter sprunghaften und zu Extremen neigenden inneren Haltung. Es ist keine Schubladenmusik. Shamani's Musik verlangt nach Zuhörern, die offen sind für viele musikalische Stile. Jazz, Fusion, experimentelle Sounds, Noise, Pop-Rock, Avantgarde - die Bandbreite ist vielfältig. Die Vorliebe für lange Improvisationen kommt bei seiner Musik ebenso zur Geltung, wie abgestimmte Kompositionen.

NEW in 2011

NEW - Le Murmure des étoiles lointaines - shamcd041 (November 2011)    This is an album of experimental music. Different sounds, samples, voices and music styles have been processed. There are also French texts, in which the composer Olivier Messiaen is incorporated by reference. The texts have surrealistic character. Each of the ten tracks takes six minutes.
As an example, you can hear the second piece  here.

All The Pleasures Of Our Time - shamcd039 (June 2011)    This album in the footsteps of his predecessor, but contains in addition to the guitar pieces two long sound collages. An old song by shamani is included in the title-track, but after all the years it sounds much different. Time distorts and destroys everything... Listen to a sample (from the last track "The Sufferings of Pleasure") for your - pleasure... And the first track ("Sushi girls") for your - amusement.............


Rainbow smashing - shamcd038 (February 2011)    This is an album including five tracks, recorded in december 2010. It is a guitar-album, because shamani plays only electric-guitar. This time shamani surprises with quiet sounds, which have been overdubed with effects and some samples. The music include spherical and experimentally parts. Listen to the track salacummba, it reflects a sense of the overall sound of the album.

Backlist

Sources from X - shamcd040 (December 2010)
10-CD-Compilation (two boxes of five) "Sources" is a mixture of old tunes & songs and new material that was recorded between 1970 to 2010. This compilation contains hitherto unpublished material. The pieces are put together in no chronological order. The long work on the Cd's 6, 9 and 10 has been specially made for this album. The sound of some older recordings is of poor quality, yet they belong in this collection. All pieces are original compositions, except for "Suzanne" on CD 8. This piece was recorded sometime in the early 1970's by Shamani, accompanied only by acoustic guitar. The combination with M.R. Mortazawis Percussion and some sound-stuff was created in early 2010.

Ponk - shamcd037 (October 2010)   16 most simple and experimental pieces. Samples and collages have been used. Added rhythm and sound effects. The titles of the pieces reveal something of the imaginative production process.
In shamani's music there is no limit. No border. Anything is possible, even the impossible. Listen PONK and check for yourself if you can resist the impossible.

Yonder - shamcd036 (August 2010)   This four-track-album is made in December 2009. One more time it is a musical creation between the borders of different styles and sounds. The title-song is a 28minutes experiment with noises and harsh tones, made with the experience of so many years in sound-making. Overall, this album presents a more inward-looking music. Listen to a mp3 sample from the beginning of track one, called "Sermon"

Terra Incognita - shamcd035 (June 2010)   This is a one-track CD, a piece of nearly one hour, made in February 2010 by Shamani. Again with this piece exceeds Shamani spatial and acoustic limits. To imagine is both an extraterrestrial as well as an introverted "journey". More than music it is again another musical experience that may lead a listener into this imaginery "Terra Incognita". It is not music in the traditional sense. Maybe it is the sound of the future for a special event, a special meditation or a special way to live. In any case: This is Shamani in his very special element. Listen to the beginning (10 min.)

Constant motion - shamcd34 (2010)   Everything is in motion, every time. Sound and music are in motion; while you are listening, motion is inside yourself. On this CD are some more experimental-pieces which are located between the spheres. Earthly spheres, no supernatural. The poems of shamani be spoken by artificial beings.
shamani - so beautiful so sad So beautiful so sad - shamcd33 (2010)   This CD has eight Songs. Jazz-PopArt-Experimental-Music with words from some famous artists, who had a deep impression on shamani. A poem by Brecht gave the inspiration for the twenty minute Track eight. Download

Fool in the shade - shamcd32 (2009)   Seven long tracks, erveryone about ten minutes. Principal features: a continuous rhythm. From slow to fast tempo, a little bit drum & bass, and a lot of jazzy elements with extraordinary improvisations.
I will not live in boxes - shamcd31 (2009)  One more of shamanis sound-song-serial.
An eight-track album, most rhythmically with sounds of distortion & full of imaginary impressions. With lines of poetry which have been incorporated into the pieces, by two ladys from South-Afrika & USA.   Feel free to download this work.
    interim Period  - shamcd30 (2009)
Seven pieces. Sound experiments again. Just like a walk into unheard-unseen landscape visions. Free download.
    Coma Berenices - shamcd29 (2009)
