5 albums I can't live without:
1
«Journey Home» , Izabela Dlužik
When touring gets intense, I return to this record. It's like a gentle breeze, almost unnoticeable, yet completely present. It doesn't distract me, it just gently brings me back to myself.

Bass Works: As I Venture Into , Martina Berter
Martina and I studied together at the Lucerne Jazz School, so her evolution on this album is very personal to me. Watching her develop such a unique bass style over the years is truly inspiring. Her playing is so bold and individual; every time I listen to it, it pushes me to experiment more freely in my own compositions. And seeing artists like Björk perform her music makes me incredibly happy.

Keep moving forward this year , Alice Costello.
This album has become my quiet companion on my recent travels. It has a vulnerability that feels deeply human and raw. It helps me and my family soften when everything around us is happening too fast, or when the morning comes too early.

NoLand , Raymur
What can I say: this is the kind of album I wish I could have made myself. The song structures, the production, the sound design, the ideas—it all exudes a timeless confidence, almost like a Pink Floyd record in its own world. I find it appealing that it seems suspended in space, which is how I often feel when I'm touring. It has a gentle, melancholic beauty, but also that sexy, authentic, raw, new-wave drive, drifting yet completely stable.

Lie 05 , Vehicle
This track feels almost meditative to me. It creates an organic space rather than demanding attention, and I appreciate that more and more as life gets louder. As someone who's always loved artists like Moritz von Oswald's Basic Channel, Rhythm & Sound, Ricardo Villalobos, and Fluxion, I'm naturally drawn to this kind of subtle dub and minimalist depth. I turn it on to clear my head, and even though it's only a four-track EP, I listen to it on repeat so it feels like a full album.
