metamorphosen by Eggovic

this album adresses a very spontaneous and minimalistic approach to music, there's no voice, no lyrics, just piano, jazz drums and jazz double bass. it is also inspired by several philosophies I came to read and deal with: the philosophy of duration by Henri Bergson, the phenomenology of Edmund Husserl, contemporary metaphyics and ontology, Adorno, nihilist answers to Descartes' ›cogito ergo sum‹ and of course the idea of change not only as philosophical entity but also as a specific property of the world itself and the human being.

this album was not planned. I used to live at a friend's house during the second covid lockdown and had time to experiment with a steinway, my jazz drumset and recording.
so ideas became tracks and that friend I was living with told me to try to make an album, he would maybe publish it, if he liked it. and he liked it, contributed to the recordings with his double bass talent.
