LUSTPRINZIP by Kat Koan
LUSTPRINZIP is my Debut Album, inspired by Freud's Pleasure/ Pain Principle, which - in a nutshell - looks at the instinctual seeking of pleasure and avoidance of pain. The striving for immediate satisfaction of the basic instincts. We need the effect of both - pleasure and pain. Without it, experiences are pretty empty.
I tried to dive deep into the emotional states surrounding this topic and laid bare very personal thoughts and feelings which somehow ended up turning into a giant emotion explosion ;)
Making this album was a steep learning curve. We sure had a lot of fun exploring ways to create our little cosmos.
I'm proud of it and super grateful for anyone who takes some time out of their busy days to come on this journey with me for 40 minutes. Hope you enjoy it.
