Rhythm is everywhere !

For me Rhythm is a universal language that allows us to connect on deeper levels.
My work is fuelled by curiosity and respect and the desire to exchange something profound and make human encounters meaningful.
In todays world we need more bridges, more togetherness.
At the core of my music stands rhythm and I aim to explore the wonderful, not yet heard sound worlds that it can create.
Welcome to my world,
Bernhard
