4) An ambient pseudonym of Hellmut Neidhardt, which débuted with "Bergen" (2003, Genesungswerk) and, excluding collaborations, has the latest album "Gager" (Oct 2010, Denovali Records).

Other releases include a collaboration with Mal Hoeschen, N & Segment, for the singe "Karnap" (Jul 2001, Genesungswerk).

The music of N is like a mirror of the moment. Regardless how much thinking and planning went before, the sound captured by a “live”-recording setting comes directly from the inside. Amps + guitar are the instruments used, there is no cut and paste afterwards nor any overdub…

All N-work is counted by numbers that reflect the timeline of recording and / or the moment of the conclusion to go for the certain concept. All N-recordings (with the possible exception of single-tracks) deal with a real place and so the title of any album does.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to N's song "Red" revolve around a theme of longing for intimacy and oneness with someone amidst a beautiful day. The opening lines suggest that the singer is aware that their love interest is not seeking to settle down. However, they intend to love and invest everything they have in this person despite the challenges. The singer then asks their love interest to step outside with them and enjoy the beautiful day while observing the big red sky around them. It's not a command, only a request.

The Protagonist promises their love interest that he/she is all they need as they fly to the big red sky together. They want to escape the everyday and enjoy their union without any external pressure. In the last verse, the singer expresses that they do not have to settle for less or conform to society's expectations. They do not need to get married or do what everyone else is doing. All they need is each other, promising that love will sustain them in life.

The lyrics to "Red" speak to the idea of escapism and how love can be a way to escape from the confines of societal norms and expectations. The singer wants to experience a magical moment with their love interest without worrying about any implications. Love is the only requirement to reach this utopia, and they promise to provide that to their love interest. Thus, the song outlines how love can be a safe haven amidst the mundane and often restrictive constructs of society.

I know you're not wanting to settle down
I understand that you're not ready to commit

But I'm going to love you know matter whose around
But I will love you no matter who else is in the picture
