about

The context of this album is based on a book of 11 short SciFi stories that I read in my youth. Authors like Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury Robert A. Heinlein, and others inspired me to create works that escape to different worlds, brighter futures, and a better humanity. Essentially, what I have come to think of as a voyage into dreams with these short stories as a starting point. The stories are:

Isaac Asimov - Reason
Ray Bradbury - Marionettes, Inc.
Walter M. Miller - Command Performance
Alan E.Nourse - The Coffin-Cure
John Christopher - The New Wine
Poul Anderson - Call me Joe
Arthur C. Clarke - The Star
J.T.McIntosh - The Bliss of Solitude
Robert A. Heinlein - By his Bootstraps
Clifford D.Simak - Limiting Factor
James Blish - The Box

The track names of course reflect my impression of the stories.

I hope you enjoy the ride thru a different dark mind's dreamscape.

Have fun.

Every sound has its own story. And each story can be completely different. That said, Christian Fiesel is trying to cross all borders of electronic and experimental music. His interest is not about being into a specific genre but to dare anything at least just once. All sources are allowed. So you won't find any impressive list of gear but the will to create atmospheres with a minimum of starting material. Christian wants the listeners to close their eyes and to open their minds to be brought to an unexpected place.
