Ideally, music is an expression of inner sublimity. Music can deeply touch us in a unique way and for me every day is a song that needs to be sung along to. As audible mathematics, music is probably the most beautiful and harmonizing way to elevate the stories of the world to a tangible pleasure. And at some point I said to myself :

"Life is a wonderful composition that writes itself. It wants to be danced. Believe what you want, but don't stop composing !".

So I present this work of mine here up to its beginnings.

Dance On My Keys

Stillsterben

"Can I still do it?" - This question lead me to some new ideas. Spreading the wings for some new electronic tracks, this one is the first flight of an elysian phoenix.

The Lemonades Of A Tasted Mind

30.03.2024, 10 Songs, 46min.

As I enjoyed it very much to play around with strings on "Human Forever" in the last songs of the album, I decided to make this whole album where the piano is no more alone.

Birthday sweet-sour

30.03.2024, 1 Song, 3min.

Zum Geburtstag Alles Gute,
Zum Geburtstag viel Glück.
Deinem Leben zum Gemute,
Deinem Herzen zum Licht.

Zum Geburtstag Alles Gute,
Zum Geburtstag viel Glück.
Denn das Leben hält das Gute
in jedes Gesicht.

Human Forever

06.11.2022, 11 Songs, 48min.

As in strange times the world falls back into a deep psychological polarization state, I feel a responsibility as a computer scientist to explicitly point to most important values that deeply connect us humans.

Is Christmas Already

28.11.2021, 1 Song, 3min.

This is just a short Christmas greeting to everyone at the end of the year.

ouroboros

19.09.2021, 13 Songs, 47min.

Originally, I've started doing the electronic music as an explorer and discoverer in a time, where sythesizers began to be cheap enough for people with regular income and computers began to open great possibilities of new sound generation techniques. But with the years the electronic sounds unexpectedly conquered all the genres, autotune killed their last feelings in my ears on top, I've lost the appeal on those and the determined musical change came for me shortly after from the head to the heart. I began to feel responsible to show up that techno puppets and fanatic computer programmers where their heart lies and found mine on the way. And now it was clear to me to take that musicial way more serious than a dream.

Daydreams

20.09.2020, 22 Songs, 43min.

It felt good to me to continue travelling on an acoustic jouney into ideas with my keys.

On the Piano

16.11.2018, 23 Songs, 41min.

There's a big difference between the conceptual writing of music in a music tracker DAW or just intiutively playing the keys. I've began collecting my non-electric ideas since here into an album dedicated to the keys that I play since I was six years old.

Movie Themes

16.11.2018, 4 Songs, 21min.

Originally planned for a movie from Daniel Pace about the Phoenix lights, which he has finally called "The appearance of a man", I began to write some movie tracks. After the collaboration was terminated prematurely, I've decided to release the music myself, independently.

Stage Two

16.11.2018, 14 Songs, 91min.

This is the second of two sampler albums I've released, after so many people asked me where to find me on any music platform.

Best of Elysis

16.11.2018, 25 Songs, 168min.

This is the first of two sampler albums I've released, after so many people asked me where to find me on any music platform.

Doing this EP I tried to produce some very experimental sounds away from the music tracker as DAW.

elysis music

elysis music
1990 - 2018, 48 Songs

In 1990 I've started to track multichannel music on the early personal computers; six years later my musical contest suggestion together with 'Obscure Corpse' was in the Top Five at "The Party '96" demo scene in Finnland. In 1998 I've joined the group "New Objectives in Sound Exploration" (noisemusic.org) as "elysis" and I've started to publish my music on elysis.de. The music has found its way also into the first-person shooter "Nexuiz" by Alientrap. Some tracks of mine are also part of the german radio play "Killing Beauties" from Nuebbelita.


The price of beauty

Here is my personal metaphor about copying music:

A child plays with its toy. His friend wants to play with it too. He hits and snatches the toy out of his hand. As he cries, the robber's mother comes and rebukes him. He was innocent. He also wanted to play with the toy. He saw beauty in it. Now he is to blame because his all-good mother had to hurt him. It would have been better if she had given him the same toy. Eris is right about one thing: discord is the bitterness of having to fight over beauty - because in reality we are all beautiful.

Never fight over beauty as long as you can share it.
