Egokind


As the saying goes: seek and you shall find. Well, in reality this simple formula is much more complicated usually. The history of the young native Berliner Jan Hammele alias Egokind shows that searching is never in vain, because often you get to know you better through all these different paths of seeking. The paths of Egokind are not only paved by the constant search for a personal and honest sound language, the Berlin-born artist encounters his own skills through several stages that define him today. At 7 years of age he received the first piano lessons. The love for music is kindled, but a deeper understanding for structure and functioning was missing. In the family household he discovered the guitar and took his first efforts that were complemented by classical guitar lessons over seven years from a Spanish violinist associated to the prestigious Deutsche Oper. Consequently, grunge bands like Nirvana laid the foundations of his artistic existence. The fascination to tease out a maximum of energy and emotions by simple riffs and purist melodies is now reflected in his own electronic productions. Because of the dense work by songwriters like Elliott Smith, Hammele started thinking about composition, song structure and lyrics that was channeled as a teenager joining and singing in a band. Even though the first experiments were useful as a playground for his own creativity, producing just on his own was a much better way to communicate his personal ideas concerning music...
