So the Project KLOPFGEISTER was founded by accident. After lots of fun home sessions they played their first gig accidentally again, when Thorsten ( DJ Pauli) didn't have enough new Records for a DJ Gig, he asked Jens to go on stage with the Synthisizer. They were backed-up by a Guitar-player and singer, a Keyboarder, a drummer and a girl on a violin. They improvised about 3 hours and after that, they had 4 more Bookings. Through many Live Acts which followed in the next years all around Europe, they got some new influences for the studio and especially Jens worked on his technical skills, whilst Thorsten used his DJ Experiences and his Classic-Piano Education ( 10 years) to work on songwriting, producing and arranging. Their first release was in 2004 on Mental Arts and the Track "How to become a psychic" is a massive Dancefloor Burner until today. In 2005 they were asked from the famous Psy-Label "Balloonia" if they want to release a whole Album there. So in May 2005 the Album "Sweet Compromise" came out and got attention worldwide because of its melodic, emotional, progressive but also psychedelic approach.Due to the crash of "Cosmophilia Distribution", Balloonia Records and many other independent labels had to quit and so KLOPFGEISTER had to look for a new label.

Meanwhile they provideda lots of tracks and remixes for free download on their homepage www.klopfgeister.com and released many other tracks on compilations (YSE, Mental Arts, Iono Music, etc..) A new album is OUT NOW (November 2006)on IONO MUSIC and they also are working on an Double Album (1. Disc: Dance-music, 2. Disc: Ambient and Downtempo-Grooves). But that's not enough and so they prepare a LIVE Album at the moment and work for the German TV on Soundtracks for Documentaries and Jingles for Radio stations and Homepages.Thorsten also studies music, media and art at the Marburg (GER) University. Until now they are well known for their very special Live Acts and the fact that the play nearly 100 % real live makes every gig a very special experience for the audience. The people want a break? They get a break! Everything you hear (Rhythms, Melodies, Synthies, Arpeggiators, Guitars,Vocals) is created and performed in realtime. So please excuse that they may be some more mistakes which depends on that KLOPFGEISTER don`t use MIDI or HarddiskJ Their sound changed a bit within the years and now they can offer a full range of musical styles. From powerful rocking Nightsound to emotional progressive Morningsound and Ambient - just like the Party and the time needs it. At the moment its mostly only Thorsten and Jens who are doing the Live performances, but if they were booked as a band they take the "real" musicians" with them, depending on the size of the Concert and what the Organizer wants and needs.

Luminosity
Klopfgeister Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I saw you the very first time
I never thought that you would be mine
With all the others, you were so busy
To reach you, it wasn't very easy
But now the feeling's gone
I tried to preserve it
I messed up now
And now I deserve it

And by the way
Back into the reel
Ever think I would have lost this
And I don't know why

Don't know why
But now the feeling's gone
I tried to preserve it
I messed up now
And now I deserve it
And by the way
Back into the reel

Ever think I would have lost this
And I don't know why (why)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Klopfgeister's song Luminosity talks about the experience of falling in love with someone and the struggles that come along the way, especially when it comes to attaining their attention. The singer is confessing that they never thought they would end up with the person they fell for. The person of interest seemed preoccupied with many other people, making their approach to them very complicated. However, they eventually fell in love, but unfortunately, the relationship didn't work out. The singer tried to hold onto the feelings they shared, but somehow things went wrong, and the relationship fell apart. Despite all that has happened, the singer can't comprehend why everything went wrong and why they lost their love.

The lyrics to Luminosity can be relatable to anyone who has ever been in a relationship before. Sometimes, people fall in love without knowing that their feelings will be reciprocated. It's not always a smooth ride, and it often comes with a lot of struggles. Furthermore, relationships don't always work out, which can leave one feeling confused and wondering where they went wrong. The singer of the song portrays this experience beautifully, and their words make it easy for the listener to empathize with the situation.

Line by Line Meaning

When I saw you the very first time
At the moment I first laid my eyes on you

I never thought that you would be mine
I never anticipated you would become mine

With all the others, you were so busy
You were occupied with all the other individuals

To reach you, it wasn't very easy
Accessing or communicating with you was challenging

But now the feeling's gone
However, the emotion has disappeared

I tried to preserve it
I struggled to maintain it

I messed up now
I caused a mistake now

And now I deserve it
And now I am worthy of the outcome

And by the way
By the way, in addition

Back into the reel
Returning back to the beginning

Ever think I would have lost this
Did you ever think I could lose this?
