Time is like a bubble in which each one of us travels through reality. Sometimes the bubble is small, and it feels like things are happening in an instant. Sometimes it’s large, making it seem like the past and the future are inseparably intertwined and completely malleable. There are many vessels which enable the enlargement of the bubble, the porch swing being currently one of the most common and readily available. Usually located in a familiar and protected place, it envoces quiet contemplation, intellectual exchange as well as the vitally important occasional cuddle under the stars. Porch Swing features Julian on all instruments while Leisure took care of the mix and the drumcomputer, and is accompanied by an extremely intimate recording of Leisure’s niece reading a story to his son after the barbeque.

 

Julian Winter

Julian Winter is an independent musician from Germany. At a quite early age he learned that music can sometimes evoke arbitrary pictures in ones mind, and that that's the point where music becomes very emotive. His music contains a lot of ambient recordings from his surroundings, and if he finds something interesting, he's sure to records it and experiments with it on his DAW. Claiming that the best thing about making music is that you become acquainted with a large number of artists from around the globe, his road has led Julian to meeting a lot of perfect strangers and very nice people in real life, as well as on the world wide web.
