Music always played an integral part in Zentek's life. As he grew up, his taste in music changed from being an advocate of single musical styles to enjoying a wide variety of musical influences such as krautrock, industrial, jungle, rare funk, breakbeats in most flavors, soundtracks and free jazz. The passive side of his musical interests encompassed late nights out at a multitude of concerts and clubs, playing close attention to the individual musician's performance. Further endeavors included digging trips through large stacks of records in local stores and building up a diverse record collection thereby. Latter resulted in the occasional DJing experience, which was soon thereafter expanded by live act shows in dusty cellars in Zurich as part of a two man team using a sampler, turntables and a groove box. At a later stage he advanced his knowledge of songwriting and live recording when he joined an indie rock/pop band as a guitarist. These previous activities had a tremendous impact on his own material, which accumulated over the past years. The release of a selection thereof provides an overview of his sometimes eclectic and abstract, sometimes soothing and mild taste of music, tune in and enjoy the Landfall!
