The second album of PERCUSSION was recorded in a short session at Loft, Cologne on November 18, 2021. A couple of months before we felt that we should start playing our music by heart to reach a deeper connection within the ensemble and towards the seemingly abstract compositions. The recording marks a somehow new phase for us - as it was the first time we played without sheet music outside our rehearsal space - confronting everyone with unknown insecurities and a therefore even greater need of trust towards each others. 
After a couple hours of recording and struggling with these feelings, a new kind of freedom grew inside of us that from then on we never wanted to miss again. 
It is not possible to put into words how thankful I am to be able to play and work with Roger and Leif during the last years but I think it is possible to hear that in the music - please feel invited to enjoy this journey through multiple emotional states and to perceive it in your very own way.
