ANULAIBAZ ᚨᚾᚢᛚᚨᛁᛒᚨᛉ by Michael Brückner

Anulaibaz ᚨᚾᚢᛚᚨᛁᛒᚨᛉ - that's my name "Olaf" in Old Norse. But what is this album all about?

Well, since I first met artist and composer Michael Brückner many years ago, we became very close friends. And over the years every now and then Michael dedicated some music to me, giving them as a present for my birthdays. Some of the music was genuine, some of it was released later in some form - all of it was brillant. But why should I be the only one enjoying this gems - this should be for everybody. So here are some of the best tunes from Michael Brückner to me...and now to you...to everybody.

1. Slowly Passing By - Olaf Lux Aeternam Mix
It all began with this little track on Michael's 2012 album A SLOW WALK THROUGH CLEAR AIR. It was one of the first albums I ever listened to from Michael, and this little 5-minute track "Slowly Passing By" I fell in love with from the start. So tongue in cheek I was angry with Michael, asking him why this piece is so short - make it longer, I demanded. And on my birthday he delivered - 42 minutes! Thanks again <3

2. An Den Stränden Von Zuma (On The Beaches Of Zuma)
This is from the sessions Michael composed for his album REISEZIEL MOND with Detlev Everling, but not used. So enjoy a totally unreleased track from 2019...

3. Blattoptera
From this sequencer driven track from 2020 only 10 minutes were released as "Carbon" on the album FOOTPRINTS. Here we have the 40 minutes complete version...

4. Skjótt Burðr Dœgr
This means "Suddenly Birthday" in Old Norse - in fact Michael almost forgot my birthday 2021, so when he was suddenly surprised by it, he improvised something on the spot. C'mon...50 minutes of finest Berlin School forged together off the cuff - are you kidding me? You had that in the bottom drawer all the time, admit it Michael! :-)

All music composed and played by Michael Brückner
Cover by Olaf Lux

All proceeds will of course go to Michael - thanks again for everything my friend!
