Rediscovering Creativity and Direction: Faderhead’s Musical Journey

Despite the un-summer-ish weather in Hamburg, Faderhead is breaking out of their music-making vacation to find new inspiration and energy. The break was much needed, as Faderhead had hit a creative wall, questioning the future of making music under the Faderhead name. But with a new perspective and some energy restored, Faderhead is ready to embark on a fresh musical journey.

In the past, Faderhead’s music was born spontaneously, resulting in unique albums with a mix of random styles and songs created throughout the year. However, a shift occurred in 2017 when Faderhead aimed to infuse more depth into the music, enhancing live shows and refining performances. This pursuit of perfection brought structure and rehearsal into the process, reducing spontaneity but yielding better results.

When the pandemic struck, Faderhead seized the opportunity to promote extensively on social media and release new music. However, after continuous efforts, the creative gas tank is now empty, leaving Faderhead uncertain about the future path.

On one hand, continuing as Faderhead may feel repetitive, and on the other, venturing into side projects requires additional effort and resources. Despite the uncertainty, Faderhead decided to explore new avenues, acquiring new skills like piano playing and honing singing abilities.

While the future direction remains unclear, Faderhead’s determination to stay fresh involves planning breaks and periods of skill development. As a result, Faderhead will embark on “30 Beats in 30 Days,” creating a beat every day in August to generate ideas and encourage creativity.

In the spirit of spontaneity, Faderhead also designed new shirts inspired by fans at the recent Amphi Festival. The shirts feature lyrics from “Destroy Improve Rebuild” and are available in various designs in Faderhead’s online store.

As the journey unfolds, Faderhead hopes to find renewed passion for music-making and welcomes input from fans about future directions. So stay tuned, follow the “30 for 30,” journey, and witness Faderhead’s creative evolution!
