#3Musix Space: Relax

Horst Grabosch: The history of these songs goes back to my first project “Spaceship Entprima”. The Exodus spaceship has been travelling for many years and you were allowed to ask how the passengers were kept happy. In the story, there was a “Captain Entprima” on board for the musical entertainment – a former professional musician. There were 3 scenarios that required his music. The first was the need for the mainly young passengers to dance to music, the second was music for relaxation, and finally background music for dinner or in the corridors. This is how my three projects developed: “Entprima Jazz Cosmonauts”, which told the story itself, “Alexis Entprima”, the music-producing coffee machine in the dining room and “Captain Entprima” himself for the relaxation music. After the episode of the spaceship Entprima, the artist identities became independent and “Alexis Entprima” became the container for dance music, the “Entprima Jazz Cosmonauts” became the container for socially critical songs and other things, but “Captain Entprima” remained the container for relaxation music. Some of these songs can be found in the “#3Musix-Space” “Spaceship Entprima”, all others that were created up to the end of 2023 are summarised here. – Estimated watchtime: 100 minutes.

Introduction
It fits in with the spaceship story that Captain Entprima is very keen to experiment. Like all my other project identities, he doesn’t have this characteristic by chance; as a former interpreter of “new music” and jazz, this is also my basic attitude. While exploring the current genres, I was bound to come across “Lofi”. Although this style of music serves more as background music for desk work than relaxation music in the strictest sense, the tracks inspired me so much that I absolutely had to give it a try. What’s more, many tracks in this genre also have a pinch of jazz to offer. As a passionate storyteller, I chose audio scenes from various markets in different cities as a backdrop.

Introduction
This compilation includes 3 EPs, each of which was a theme with 2 variations. The tracks were all still under the influence of the spaceship fantasy. I have interleaved them here for a more varied listening experience. There are 3 scenes, atmospherically set in a cave, underwater and a windy day on land. The tracks have been remastered exclusively for this compilation.

Le Chant des Sirènes

Introduction
In the Community Spaces, we always present things that belong together, even if they have not been published in a larger context. In this space, “Le chant des sirènes” was finally left over and we couldn’t find any more similar pieces of music. In fact, the song is not part of a story, but interprets a theme from Greek mythology, namely the alluring sirens who lure fishermen and often lead them to their doom. In mythology, they are female hybrid creatures, sometimes with beards. As is the case with the album “LUST”, “Captain Entprima” aka Horst Grabosch has subsumed the whole story under longing. The sailors allow their longing for love to lure them to their doom. In the end, the death knell rings.

Important Information
How Horst Grabosch’s late electronic music career developed can be seen in the sequence of music spaces curated here. Horst Grabosch’s name only emerged as an artist in 2022 after around 100 songs had already been released under “Entprima Jazz Cosmonauts”, “Alexis Entprima” and “Captain Entprima”. All of them were written and produced by Horst! Initially, the old projects were still mentioned as collaborations, but as the author’s own style became more and more apparent, this was also dispensed with and both the music and the books were published under Horst Grabosch. The most elaborate production of ambient music (in the broadest sense) was published under Horst Grabosch in collaboration with the “Captain Entprima” project. The album “Far Beyond Understanding” also goes much deeper than the songs summarised here. It went so deep in the direction of meditation that Apple Music immediately refused to release it so as not to “confuse listeners”.
