On the way home

May 18th, 2010

What you see above is the trailer of a russian documentary, that I will contribute sound and music to. We are still in the beginning of our workflow, but it is a very nice team around russian director Sergey Kachkin and the romanian film-producer Andra Matresu.  I am really looking forward to compose music, that is inspired by the pictures and the mood of the film. Long russian streets. Cold russian winters.

A melancholic love poem in modern times of Russia – this documentary unfolds around a married couple at the age of fifty. He is a truck driver. She is his woman tending for love. Nobody knows when the situation will change until one of the family member dies…

These Days featured in Short Documentary “Synthese”

July 12th, 2009

I’m happy to see my older work still appealing to people. Recently i was asked if my track “These Days” could be used for the graduation project of two german film-students: Christopher Holme and Frank Seleger.

They made a really good and professional Short Documentary on Kite-Surfing called “Synthese”. Paid a lot of attention on small little details, which I really appreciate in film. It is in German, but even just watching the footage and listening to the nice soundwork pays off. Enjoy!

(For the impatient ones: These Days starts at about 60/100)
