The Beast Within (2022)

“The Beast Within” is my debut album on my own imprint, VRAAA Records; a queer label from Berlin. In the album, I alternate between both of my Projekt Gestalten and The Princess of Death aliases in order to create original pieces of music inspired by a point-and-click adventure game from the 90’s called “Gabriel Knight II - The Beast Within”. As Projekt Gestalten, an array of dance tracks are functionally presented; dissecting a more rational aspect from the game’s storyline. In contrast, The Princess of Death goes into an ambient and experimental approach; exploring liturgical themes. In the end, the gender polarising concept is extrapolated and both aliases are finally merged into one another; leading to the Gestalt principle, alluded to in my main alias, being fully applied as a whole.
