Hi everybody!

I have uploaded two new songs on my myspace profile. It would cool if some of you find the time to listen to it and let me know what you think.

The new songs are "Kleiner Frieden" (little peace) and "Paul" , recorded live yesterday at our Universities Festival.

Hope you are well,
Peace

Hi, Niki,

It's great to hear from you.... It's been awhile and I hope all is well....

My personal musical taste is such that the material you are performing at this point is a bit too free form. I personally could never quite get behind complete tunes arranged in this fashion. However, I can definately hear and appreciate the quality behind what was done. And with that written, you all nailed it in my book.

Keep up the good work.

D.

Kleiner Freiden has a nice affect on me. Maybe a bit of a Paul Winter feel . . . I like this music.

Paul may even be a tribute to Winter . . . and I haven't even heard it yet. Listening now, another nice piece . . . I think these are great accomplishments, Niki. Paul is starting to heat up now . . .

Speaking of Paul, I've always loved this Coltrane/Rollins song written for Paul Chambers:

Hey guys,

Thanks so much for listening! Its really highly appreciated. And I usually listen to all stuff you post, but not always I then find the time to comment. So even more I'm grateful you take the time to listen and comment on my songs.

Yeah, this music is very free form, it actually just is theme - freely solos - head.
I love those tunes written by our saxophonist Philipp, very warm. And these days I play a lot of free stuff. I think the challenge of listening, interacting and being sensitive on what to play when is a great challenge and can lead to very deep and often unexpected moments. I think in those two tunes we did quite well with grasping the moment(s) and created a good atmosphaer.
I have never heard Paul Winter, although I know the name. Will check out the music!

Thanks again.

Peace
Niki
Ps: Would love to be more active here, but I'm currently very busy. I come here and read once a week at least though.

Excellent!! This is very harmonious and beautiful music.
Evocative and just gorgeous!
I'm listening to your solo on nerdis and it's really incredible!!
Very hip tune funky and quirky too.
You've got it! By jove i think he's got it!

Hey Kenny! Thanks so much for listening! Glad you like it!!! We had fun playing it and will record a cd in the last week of July in Germany.
We have a own myspace site for that band at http://www.myspace.com/deepressure4

Thanks again for listening y'all.

All is well with me, just busy, hope you are all well too!
