"Phänomen" will be the first video release from "Anandamide". · The track explores the concept that all products are temporary. Everything in life and in the world is a product created by cause and conditions. We cling to these things; we don’t want them to change.

The track itself was an improvised piece on piano and mellotron based around an evolving chord pattern with various notes triggering off the main chord structure in a random kind of way. It was a question of doing multiple takes and performances of the piano parts and then piecing together a structure that made sense to add the mellotron to. It has a kind of Germanic concerto feel to it which seemed to suit the title and the drama of the music.
