An animated illustration by Petra Péterffy for track #13 on BEFORE THE MOON. Pull the daisies. Push you can later.

On my way from Brussels to Amsterdam I have the chance to visit Hallerbos Woods. Surrounded by a highway there are these fields of Hyacinthoides, a kind of Asparagus. They are in full blossom these days. Look.

In Amsterdam I meet bass mate Alex Schaub who has become a specialist in digital fabrication. We haven’t met for about a decade. One of the labs Alex has built up is to be found in The Waag – the place where the scene for Rembrandt’s „The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Tulp“ took place. I get a personal tour through this historical building equipped with digital production gear. Thanks Alex. I feel that this is a place where time bends.

The third place of my research tour is the north sea. I study the flat, work on some song texts, the peaceful atmosphere allows me to consolidate certain ideas and thoughts.

Directed, shot and edited by Philipp Majer, the trampolinist is Maurice Schneider. Thanks a lot for this unexpected contribution.

Animation by Petra Péterffy coming soon.

„Was fehlt noch, nach zwölf Monaten voller Tonträger? Vielleicht dieser Alpenfolk der Andersdenkenden.[…] Es gibt keine Erklärungen zu diesem schönen Wagnis, und doch ist es ein Manifest.“

The new Lump200 album is out and available now, digitally and on 12″ vinyl. Both can be purchased in our bandcamp shop , you can get it on iTunes, amazon etc. and stream it on spotify etc. In some european countries you can get the vinyl in your local record stores (distribution: SOULFOOD).

Thanks a lot to everyone who helped make BEFORE THE MOON possible!!!
