KLANGLYS

CONFIDENCE INVITES

Life is filled with sto­ries and tales, both big and small. The future needs the past, and yet we often get caught up in the past and remain stuck there. We find it dif­fi­cult to say good­bye and look freely toward the future.

KLANGLYS invites lis­ten­ers to let go of the old and lift up the essence of what is pos­si­ble. Klan­glys’ music takes us on an adven­tur­ous jour­ney, a hike over moun­tains, past forests and lakes, all the way to the sea.

Com­pos­er, song­writer, and KLANGLYS founder Johannes Käs­bach has drawn on a wealth of dif­fer­ent per­spec­tives. The result is lyrics and music that touch the heart and look to the future with con­fi­dence, free from fear. Johannes Käs­bach shows us the mul­ti-lay­ered vis­tas offered by the land­scapes he depicts. It is as if he and KLANGLYS take us with them on their jour­neys of per­spec­tive, bring­ing their expe­ri­ences and impres­sions of nature to life in audi­to­ry images. Snap­shots that are burned into the sound mate­r­i­al as if through a lens meet ver­sa­tile thoughts and reflec­tions that find a voice in Käsbach’s music. With one goal: to give lis­ten­ers con­fi­dence, away from melan­choly and the many wor­ry­ing devel­op­ments in the world.

Alter­na­tive­ly, the music gives lis­ten­ers hope and strength to empha­size pro­found and pos­i­tive human val­ues in this adven­ture of life and also in this musi­cal jour­ney: find­ing one­self, cohe­sion, and open­ness to one anoth­er. This hap­pens in a light and sooth­ing way. The moun­tain plateau is thus climbed with joy. And from up there, you real­ly do have a great view. It inspires you and gives you the courage to dis­cov­er more panora­mas and paths in life.

Of course, this jour­ney through per­spec­tives into con­fi­dence is also vis­i­ble in the form of the album and its sin­gles, which unite all col­ors in perspective.

“SUA CALMA” – YOUR CALM! the first sin­gle to be released, con­veys the calm­ness of the blue sea. Klan­glys takes lis­ten­ers on a flight that gen­tly lifts them to new heights. This piece con­tains many per­son­al expe­ri­ences and jour­neys by Johannes Käs­bach to the sources of life.

The sec­ond sin­gle, “SKETCH2,” sym­bol­izes new begin­nings, joie de vivre, ener­gy, and a fresh start, and is asso­ci­at­ed with descend­ing from the sum­mit of a moun­tain range in Japan at sun­set and a pleas­ant feel­ing of solitude. 

“DANCE OF THE STRUCK SAND” in yel­low sand and green bush­es describes the encounter with the Ser­tane­jas in the north­east of the Brazil­ian desert and their dance, the Xax­a­do. It is the third sin­gle on the way to the album.

The white cloud cov­er is reflect­ed in a morn­ing run on the beach in the fourth sin­gle “INVOLUTED REBOUND” as the first rays of sun­shine make their way through.
