Inspired by the great electronic music albums from the past. But also a full album about the intrugeing flying machine which was popular at the beginning of the 20th century. For the Dutch masters project I took the painting of Carel Willink called "De Zeppelin". While I recorded this track I had just finished the openings- and title track of this album. Due to the success of the Dutch Masters project, I decided to go on and create a full album about this interesting flying machine. A Zeppelin is a type of rigid airship
All tracks reflect a certain aspect of this invention. All tracks are in the Berlin School sequencing style which suits perfectly with the character of the Zeppelin. Imagine the big engines while listening to those fast sequences on the second track of the album. The Mellotrons and the B3 organs reflect the atmosphere during the flghts. As a kid I was fascinated a lot by this piece of early modern technology. I can recall the dramatic accident happened to the Hindenburg. Although it belonged to bad regime during those days, it is interesting to see how mankind was not able to handle such machines and how it reacted to it.
