hausmeister is christian przygodda, 34 years old and living in bremen. for a living he paints film posters and portraits – sometimes that even works out.

hausmeister (caretaker/janitor; literally “master of the house”) is one of those better left alone most of the time. he’s a bit of a loner and kind of a tinker. to be your own master is possible only at home, in your own private and undisturbed space.and kind of a “frickler” (someone who’s not a learned expert, but who can bury himself without end in the tiniest fractions of a problem – be it cars, computers or music)

hausmeister’s music exists in clear song structures that are based on the all important factor of melody. there are no loops here; what sounds like a loop, is actually played, mostly with “traditional” instruments. he employs his sampler only as a source of sounds. the tiniest particles emerge and are then modified to blend seamlessly into his characteristic sound fabric.

listening to his music, you will rediscover a lot you know – and discover even more you don’t. and if you listen closely and intently, you will touch on your own biographical context.
