What is this project all about?

The album consists of eight tracks, which serve as individual chapters in an ongoing story. They sound and feel as diverse as life itself: Think epic symphony with heavy riffs and Progressive Rock with the finest 70ies vibe meets Jazz harmonies, funky fusion solos and acoustic ballads.

A team of talented and passionate artists led by Rabea Peter and Frank Hofacker creates a film with enormous devotion, consisting of a hand painted graphic novel, animations, live footage and visuals, to bring the underlying concept behind SALUTOGENESIS to life.

The result is a 60 minute synesthetic journey into a world that resembles ours - yet creates space to experience oneself entirely different. Science-fiction and mythology, dream and reality merge - just as music and film.

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

We began the work on this mammoth project in October 2015. After almost four years of composition, vision, conception, creation, organization and production we're super happy to share our masterpiece with you!

We've created everyting from ourselves and our collective - insofar possible - but to successfully execute the last steps we need your help! The services cost a lot of time and money, while being essential for the quality of the whole experience - and we don't want to compromise on the last steps!

Check our first releases. Let yourself be blown away and touched by our art. And then pick from our array of awesome rewards and be one of our supporters of the first hour to come to enjoy your very own SALUTOGENESIS!

Why would you support this project?

It is our wish to create a space through our art, which enables and supports the confrontation with both oneself and the other.

We believe that music embodies an enormous power to spark deep emotions, to dissolve blockages and barriers and to bring together people, that would have never met otherwise. In this respect we address all people that long for further development of their self and that seek connection to like-minded individuals.

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

--> Album production (especially mixing and mastering)
--> Pressing and distribution of the album
--> Sustainable, fair trade, organic merchandise (you're worth it!)
--> The necessary investments in a grandiose release show

If we reach our second funding goal we can fulfill our dream of the album on vinyl!
