Reichenhall – Propane & Champagne
Like a merry-go-round, the sound pieces repeat on a rotating principle.
Everything spins and twists like a bunch of amusement rides.
Together they form a sonic backdrop to a fairground of curiosities. The undulating movement of the chain carousel can be seen from afar.
Above this scenery, pilots experiment with self-crafted flying vehicles.
Acrobats, ventriloquists and bear tamers are in ecstasy as the sound of engines, sonic booms and rides mix. Balloonists rise for the first time. The dance begins.

Bernhard Wöstheinrich – The Wilhelmshagen Sessions 20221125
subscriber series
Audio Teaser
As a variation of my occasional collaborative sessions with my friends Volker Lankow and Andreas von Garnier in Andreas’ studio, the Wilhelmshagen Sessions, this album presents a unique twist. Rather than a collective effort, it features an isolated track, taken out of context, that I recorded in the studio, meticulously edited and processed to create an immersive and expansive ambient experience.

Bernhard Wöstheinrich – Materiaal 061︱Live on Galactic Travels™ 2023
Recorded live to 2-track on WDIY’s Space Music Program ‘Galactic Travels™’ in Bethlehem, PA 18015 on April 13, 2023.
This is the recording of an uninterrupted live performance right out of the studio. The music presented here is the mix just like what was going out to the P.A. that night. The quality of the recording may be slightly compromised accordingly.
The Live-on-Air performance at Bill Fox’ Galactic Travels was the kick-off show for the US tour from April 2023. All other performances will be made available in this series further on.

Reichenhall – Perpetuum Polygon
This album tells a fictional story; A group of puzzle freaks meet on the so-called Krautenberg (“Krauten Hill”) to hone their self-oscillating inventions. They are pursuing the goal to synchronize their appliances and to combine it into one great polygonic object, which, once started up, keeps being in motion eternally without any further external energy supply.
This object takes its energy from a Brownian ratchet (“Molekulare Ratsche”), an imaginary nano machine that converts thermal energy into mechanical work at the molecular level. This device is being manually operated by Maxwell’s demon.
The result of all these endeavors becomes an ever-growing conglomeration of sound!
