SECRET SOURCE originates from a sounddesign experiment around 2014, dealing with nonstandard tunings. The song Alien Melancholy was a first result that lived an unheard instrumental life until marQs discovered his daughter Greta to be the voice perfectly suiting this kind of music. A bunch of songs arose, released as the Alien Melancholy-EP - along with a video clip, made by visual artist Dr. Wok. Surprisingly there was an immediate demand for live shows. The early SECRET SOURCE performances consisted of wild vocal improvisations, a good load of FX and live visuals with Dr. Wok going nuts on freaky custom screen content. Not even a year later the SECRET SOURCE incarnated as a real band. B. Mrflow took over the percussive part while Oli Schmidt joined on guitar. With marQs on bass the lineup for all secret drum|bass|guitar tasks was complete. The challenge now was to transfer designer music - created on a computer - to real instruments while obtaining the original feel. With instrumentalists who share their musicality for decades and a singer who happens to transport utterly transcendent words the SECRET SOURCE is well set up for a future journey into the great big unknown. It's a trip and we're glad you are travelling with us! This album provides the original electronic based content as well as an evolving hybrid approach of unfolding the SECRET SOURCE in a band context. It's a carefully earcrafted mindtrip. Enjoy!
