CD work in progress. Hat momentan 19 Tracks, wovon u.U. ein paar rausfliegen.
Eigentlich gibt es mindestens drei Arten von Stücken: Popsongs, dunkle, böse Tracks und dann die Kinderlieder.
Temperament:
Zwischen sehr bewegt, unruhig, freundlich aber auch bedrohlich, immer fordernd aber auch hergebend.
Manchmal traurig, manchmal infantil fröhlich. Auch Geschichten erzählend, aber kein Muss.
Linernotes by Mr. Mellotronaut sind fertig. Vorausichtlich ready for public: Early 2007..
Be warned:
This one is slow, countrylike and kitsch!
Best would have been if Johnny Cash would have sung it, but… hm, me sang 😉
The best of all: I got a little big help from my friends S.Hush and Watto! Thanks so much, guys for the lovely additions
So I’m lucky to announce that this is the first 3continent-collab I have been part of (Europe, America, Australia)!!
Tired
thomekk: vocals, acoustic guitar
S.Hush: backing vocals, tremolo guitar, flute, strings
Watto: Piano, Rhodes
Yes, it’s true! “No more fighting” by Thomekk & Mona made it to Neil Young’s “Living with war” antiwar-protestsongs charts. This song was downloaded about 1130 times since the middle of 2006, which makes me really really proud 😉

Download “No more fighting”
This was my entry for the k-v-r contest (theme: “fight”)
Mona’s on the vocals.
No more fighting It’s folky and non-electronical
EDIT: Here’s a remix of da song reggae-stylish by Thomas Mahler (Login required!)

Thomas Liebe war lange Zeit ein künstlerisches Pseudonym für richtig lustige, mehr oder weniger schräge Songs (manchmal auch Schlager) mit mehr oder weniger bekloppten deutschen Texten.
Alles fing an ca. 1990 mit der Band “Liebe”. Nachdem sich dieses mit hervorragenden Musikern besetzte Quintett nicht länger in dieser Form aufrecht erhalten ließ, beschloß Thomas Kallweit (der Bandleader/Songschreiber) sich fortan für seine deutschsprachigen Musikprojekte Thomas Liebe zu nennen – und solo aufzutreten.
Es folgten diverse Auftritte in Kaschemmen, Cafe’s, auf Open-Air-Festivals, in der Kanalisation usw.
Außerdem gab es diverse Cassettenveröffentlichungen, so wie zwei selbstproduzierte CDs (“Die Wahrheit ist ein Anarchist” (1996) und “Allen soll es gut gehn” (2002).
FahrscheinGefahr – Laptop-Musik mit Gesang und Keyboards
GERMAN INFO
Die Ausstattung ist rudimentär, die Musik dennoch opulent: Präsentiert mit Laptop und Keyboards entstehen dichte Arrangements aus traditionellen Instrumenten, elektronischen Beats und verspielten Soundeffekten und bestimmen eine Richtung, die manche auch POP-Musik nennen.Die Texte, vornehmlich in deutscher Sprache gehalten, behandeln knapp und oft zynisch-ironisch Themen wie das Dilemma zwischen Einsamkeit und sozialem Kontakt, Beziehungsdramen und alltägliche “Unfälle”.Obwohl manchmal rockiger und textlich bissiger wurden die Songs von FahrscheinGefahr mit denen von 2Raumwohnung und Rosenstolz verglichen.Thomas Kallweit, (Komposition/Text) erfindet und arrangiert Musik am liebsten am Computer, kann aber auch Gitarre spielen. Singt manchmal.Kerstin Bohlin (Gesang/Text) beschäftigt sich mit dem Ausdruck von Sprechtexten und Musik im Bereich Kunst und Theater-Darbietung.
FahrscheinGefahr – (“Ticket Danger”) – Laptop music based on keyboards and plain song
ENGLISH INFO
The equipment is quite rudimental, but nevertheless the music is opulent: laptop and keyboards care for high density arrangements generated from traditional instruments, electronic beats and frisky sound effects some people call “pop-music-style”.
Primarily in German language the lyrics define shortly and ironically subjects like the dilemma between solitude and social contact, relational dramas and all day “accidents”. Although the music of FahrscheinGefahr is more punk and the lyrics are more snappy – their songs have been compared with those of 2Raumwohnung and Rosenstolz.
Thomas Kallweit, (Composition/Lyrics/Arrangement) creates and arranges music mostly with his computer – but he likes also playing the guitar and sometimes he even sings.
Kerstin Bohlin, (Vocals/Lyrics) works with the expression and interplay of words, lyrics and music – performing it theatre plays and numbers as well as in art.
The idea (still)
You can find here some (downloadable) tunes – more or less finished, sometimes only short fragmented snippets – and if you like one of those, you can contact me for a possible coop.
Webspace is cheap these days, so it should not be a prob to work together on projects either if u are from europe or alaska 😉NOTE: For FL Studio-Users it is either more easy. If someone is interested in a collaboration, I can put the flp-files here too.If u use only a simple wave-editor to record or use another host-program, no prob! Even if you do not record your stuff but write lyrics, ok!
Dance with me little eagle (3,6 Mb, 3:49 Min.) Some easy going athmospheric tune with acoustic guitar, e-piano and rhythm-box. For sure this will get the selftiteld refrain, haha! |
