About Me

CURRENT MISSION

sing sing sing. play play play.

ABOUT ME

I am a musician and soundengineer and I'm self-employed. And my "work" if you could even call it work is very project based. Recording people or doing a tour. So I have a lot of freedom to go where I want to in between that and go and visit places that I want to see and meet new people that have an intersting approach on life or just a different life style. I also I find traveling very inspiring for writing new songs.

I do think a lot. Maybe too much. Most of the time about love, life and music.

I think I am a very easy going, open-minded and friendly person with a good sense of humour, sometimes a bit quiet, when I'm new to a place. :-) I've slept on floors and couches and in tents in India, Australia, North America and pretty much all over Europe.

I live with 4 very friendly people in a house and we have had people from different countries stay at our house. So far it was mainly musicians that were touring Germany and I really hope we made them feel very welcome in Germany.

If I have time I would love showing you some of the countryside around where I live. It's really beautiul.

Oh, probably an easier way to communicate with me is via facebook, so for all of you who have a facebook account add me and it will be easier for me to communicate. Thank you and looking forward to meet you

Oh and if you are intested in my music you can find it on: www.myspace.com/florianostertag

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to find my way without being selfish.

I try different things and stick to what feels right. I try to be a "good" person but am not always sure what that means...

...I guess Life for me is about Learning, how we can be happy and help and make other people happy at the same time... at the same time sometimes I think we think too much about happiness which makes it kinda harder... ...maybe I put peace of heart before happiness.
