Re-Release of 20th Anniversary Remix Albums

Nadine — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 14:30:00 +0000

Both 20th anniversary remix albums are now available on all streaming platforms. Thank you so much to everyone who contributed their creativity, time, and talent to these releases. The first volume, “The Club Remixes” contains over one hour of house, techno, trance, synthwave and darkwave remixes that could be played in underground clubs. You can find “20th Anniversary – The Club Remixes” here. The second volume, “The Radio Remixes” is a bouquet of lo-fi, pop, rock and jazz remixes, that will please your ears on good speakers in the living room. You can find “20th Anniversary – The Radio Remixes” here. Minor changes for technical reasons Some remixes were already included with the singles when we migrated the songs from Bandcamp to additional streaming platforms. Technically, we needed all the individual songs to be available before we could compile the albums. Now, we are proud to announce that both “20th Anniversary – The Club Remixes” and “20th Anniversary – The Radio Remixes” are officially on all streaming platforms. However, there are a few slight differences due to technical circumstances. A big thank you! Due to personal circumstances, there will be no Bandcamp listening party this time. We hope we can make up for it when the time is right. Maybe the release of the complete discography would be a good occasion to celebrate. A huge thank-you goes to all remixers, collaborators, labels and photographers who allowed us to publish this album. Without your support, creativity and trust, these releases would not have been possible. Twenty years of music is a long time, and these remix albums are a tribute to everybody who joined the ride.

More Than I Pretend – A song for introverts

Nadine — Fri, 12 Jun 2026 10:00:00 +0000

“More Than I Pretend” was created in collaboration with Hamburg-based artist Morino. I’m happy about this release, as we have been appreciating each other’s music for several years. The song tells the story of an introverted person who notices everything, but rarely speaks up about it. This often leads to misunderstandings, which can prevent them from fully reaching their potential. Still waters run deep. Introverted people often understand far more than they are given credit for, and they rather act quietly than stepping into the spotlight. That’s exactly why the cover artwork for “More Than I Pretend” was designed to be loud and striking. It contrasts with what one might expect. This song is energetic, fast, and fun to listen. “More Than I Pretend” is now available on all major streaming platforms as well as Bandcamp.

Going My Way – Now available on all streaming platforms

I am happy to announce that my album “Going My Way” is now available on all streaming platforms. If you always wanted to stream that album, go ahead and spin it! “Going My Way” is a wild ride through many different genres in between pop, rock and metal. The album has been recorded as online collaborations with 21 musicians. It’s one of my favourite albums, because it truly reflects my skills in songwriting, arrangement and production. “Going My Way” is the beginning of a new chapter, a chapter, where I’m not only tweaking knobs and automations in my DAW, but also play real instruments, write arrangements for full bands, contribute lyrics and co-write with talented folks all over the globe. It has been such a treat to work with so many talented musicians. Big shoutout to David Taro, Nate Gerry, Chad Lenig, I AM MEADOWS, Kelly Best, Roman Wreden, Michael Karns, Jason Challis, Garrett Kirby, Jordan Hirsch, Simon Ashby, Stefan Hartl, Gammafied, Caitlin Sigler, Kate Stanton, Rich Brewer, Ben Kohr, Alex Pinheiro, Stephan Kösters and Robert Cooperider (in no particular order). You will find many of these names in my later works! I highly encourage you to join the Bandcamp listening party tonight 8pm CEST and have a chit-chat with us. If you don’t find the time, you can find the album on all platforms. Here is a preview video on YouTube:

No Difference – 80s synth pop is not indifferent

Nadine — Fri, 06 Feb 2026 11:00:00 +0000

If you enjoy 80s synth pop, you will fall in love with our calm and sad song “No Difference”. Steady electronic rhythms and old school synthesizers meet emotional vocals. Our song is now available on all platforms. As I’m pretty loaded with collaborations and open projects, I decided to write lyrics. So I had a deeper look into SHUENs profile to have an idea about the topics and atmosphere. That’s where I ended up writing something about somebody who is indifferent to everything. He came back with a crazy good synth pop sound, and a very catchy melody. Our song is now available on all platforms.

Toward Tomorrow – Overcoming a hard life

Nadine — Fri, 09 Jan 2026 11:00:00 +0000

With “Toward Tomorrow,” we’re releasing a melancholic song about alcohol and drug abuse. You can find it on all music platforms now. “Toward Tomorrow” is a song about a man rediscovering himself after years of alcohol and drug abuse. It is the story of a man abused in childhood by his father who falls in with the wrong crowd in high school and starts to use alcohol and drugs to deal with his emotional pain. He hits bottom through not being able to work and having to live homeless off the land in the California desert. This song is a mournful elegy to a life that was almost taken away, but now starting to find itself and reclaim its worth. The song was written several months ago when Andrew Russell and Michael Gutierrez-May participated in a random collaboration game. This time, Andrew played all the instruments, while Michael wrote the lyrics. It was a new experience for me to be involved solely as a producer and arranger. It went surprisingly well, as I already worked on several projects with Andrew and appreciate Michael’s songwriting. We didn’t want to keep “Toward Tomorrow” to ourselves any longer and have finally uploaded it to all streaming platforms. It’s also available on YouTube, of course!
