after spending the majority of his career as a musician playing and producing for other artists, he now ventures into the depths of his own creative imagination .

jannek left new york for half a year in 2020, grabbed 2 synths and a guitar and started writing. what came of it is a large body of work, inspired by the calmness and mindfulness he experienced during his time in isolation. the coastal influence is clearly heard in his music as he channels his love for nature and his love for the quiet moments, something that’s hard to express living in manhattan.

the work on these songs was continued upon his return to new york, where he tirelessly crafted sounds and songs at the ‘human’ studios in chelsea, where he collaborated with legends of the music industry such as Tony Visconti (Bowie, T-Rex), Donny McCaslin (Bowie, Maria Schneider) and Kristeen Young (Bowie, Dave Grohl).

nestled in the depth between new age, neo-classical and ambient music, jannek draws from the inspirations that have come to him during his recent years in new york, as he cherishes his more blues and folk related roots and moves to new musical waters.
