A very experimental session and some try-outs for a project I might work for in the future. I got a piece of gypsum with a piezo-mic inside. Connecting it to the 1010 Bluebox and feeding it into the Soma Lyra8-FX is pure magic.

If you follow my sonic journey, you noticed that I added more and more semi modular gear to my collection. And so it felt only natural to take the final step and build a nice little ambient setup. I started with oscillators that I already have (Elmyra 2, Plinky), a case from Alter Later Audio that is portable enough to go on travel, some new modules and a bunch of modulators borrowed by my friend...

Br ❤️ I was super honored as it was their anniversary edition and I was the the first live performer ever - we chatted first and then I...

This is an excerpt - watch the full performance https://matthias-rosenkranz.de/a-silent-concert-in-the-forest-sonic-walk-recap-full-video/ Last Saturday, September 19th, something magical happened in the woods near Trimbach. We hosted our very first Sonic Walk – and honestly, I'm still glowing from it. If you've never heard of a Sonic Walk, imagine a silent concert in the middle of nature. Instead...

Zürich-based performer and artist Rosenkranz presents "One" - the debut release marking both the official launch of the project itself and the first artefact of a newly defined artistic identity. Formerly operating under the name "59 Perlen", this EP signals a conscious transformation: a formal realignment toward music that's rooted, deliberate, and openly processual. "One" collects four tracks of...

I performed this track at the most important event in my musical journey — Sonic Playground 2022, hosted by my label, Petite Victory Collective. It was during this performance that I truly realized the power of connection with my audience. I still feel that warm glow when I remember how people began dancing and whistling — one of those unforgettable moments, beautifully captured in this piece of m...

I would call this a classic 59 Perlen track — minimalistic, endless, and drenched in reverb :) It captures what I’d call my signature sound, something every artist strives to find. Funny enough, I only realized I had found mine when people started telling me they could recognize my music instantly — no matter the genre it is.

A tribute to my all time favorite synth — the Vermona Perfourmer MKII. It´s one of those classic pieces of gear you never sell. This melodic jam became one of my most streamed tracks so far.

I always have parts in my live sets that give me short breaks during a show — pieces that almost play themselves, with a high level of generative modulation. This track is one of them. I originally prepared it for a show in Zurich but decided not to use it in the end. When I created it, I felt like I was watching outer space unfold in sound.

I simply love this track.

This track is part of a full-length art installation titled "The Maze", which premiered in November 2024 in Copenhagen. It marked the first duo collaboration with my partner, Bernardo San Rafael. The song holds something truly magical — it was the most intimate moment at the end of the show, and even though the stage design kept us from maintaining eye contact, our connection felt incredibly stron...

This track is an unfinished demo of a track that was ment to become a melodic house track. I produced it during a class for Ableton producers. The main lead was created using a plugin that simulates the Commodore C64 SID Soundchip.

My first Jam with the Elmyra 2 drone synthesizer from Neutral Labs. What can I say - even though this device has a lot of hidden secrets in a nerdy menu system without any screen, its so accessible,versatile, dark and deep in such a tiny lightweight box, it's a real dream for ambient musicians. I just use 2 of the 4 voices in this little jam (one in Chord Mode, one with Sub-Oscillator), the audio...

“Swim To You” has a long and rather unique journey behind it. The original piece was composed for a temporary art installation called "Shopping Bag". Back then, it was performed entirely on the Vermona Performer—some of those original sounds still remain in this new version. I loved the textures so much that I decided to release it as a single titled "Swim To You". A singer-songwriter later added...

In September, I’ll be performing several ambient shows and have already started preparing for them. This piece, which I’ve titled Rise, reminds me of that moment just before sunrise. The textures were created using a glockenspiel and the Soma Cosmos. For these shows, I want to bring more acoustic elements into my sets, and I’m currently putting together a kind of “sound toolkit” made of different...

It has been a while since I uploaded anything on my channels. It has been a while that I was creative in general - but I'm slowly coming back after the hot weather knocked by brain totally out. Meanwhile I've build a new setup that I performed last week at "Meet the Machines" in Hannover for the very first time. Feedbacks where great, even though I was not convinced about my set as I had not rehea...
