Beyond the Shadows (1111 Hz) | 1 hour handpan music | Malte Marten & Dominik Dettling
Lately I've been playing my song A Message from the Stars a lot, experimenting with it on different handpans, and it feels like it reveals something new to me every time. Recently @DominikDettling came to visit - we had never met before, but he had covered my song. We decided to play a duet version together and it felt so natural, like the perfect way to wrap up my tour as the song was very present there. It's been with me the whole trip, I've performed it at every concert and it's been so powerful every time.
Looking back, itβs also amazing to see how much the original process that inspired A Message from the Stars has transformed over time. As the months go by, what once felt like problems have shifted, evolving into opportunities that feel more like growth. Itβs incredible to watch things change and become something meaningful.

Forest soundscapes combine multiple elements - birdsong, rustling leaves, and ambient life - that trigger what biologists call 'biophilia,' the innate human connection to nature.
