With „Cosmoclimax“ moonbooter proves that his typical rhythm-oriented and danceable Electronic Music also works in a lying position. What does that mean: The music of his latest album has been composed for a live-concert at Planetarium Bochum, which Bernd presented in public first on February 14th, 2009 to a capacity crowd.
With melancholic melodies, driving percussions, broad choirs, catchy sequences and a skilful mixture of electronic and acoustic sounds moonbooter abducts us to unknown galaxies. Each song holds several bows and mostly ends differently than expected after the intro. At first. some songs sound trendy but then end up in a homage to classical EM. This time, Bernd approaches his typical theme “space” in a different way this time and leaves technical aspects far behind. Concerning sound, “Cosmoclimax” offers to the interested auditory a special transparency and many hidden details, which make this album an exciting experience also after repeated hearing.
”Cosmoclimax” is music to dream, feel and experience.

A few personal production notes from Bernd: „In January 2008, just before finishing my last album “Lunatic Voyage” I was thinking about the main theme for my next album. This was the hour of birth of the idea “Cosmoclimax”, where the songs should contain many arranged climaxes. At the same time the music had to work at a Planetarium, as a concert for 2009 was already scheduled. During the following months I only produced the music in my dimmed studio with stellarium-animations which a beamer projected towards the walls. After a short time I recognised that I was not able to give up my rhythm oriented style. I realised that smoothly driving rhythms could work in a comfortable lying position as well: if I did not exaggerate! So I put the focus on melodies and sequences, which I accompanied with choirs and vocals. Additionally the drums obtained more epos and bombast. After I performed the new music on February 14th, 2009 for the first time at Planetarium Bochum successfully, I returned to my studio despite a “creative hole”: one song was still missing somehow. A few days passed and I finished “Down back to my soul”, a song that is very close to my heart.
