Stay tuned.

Okay, it´s time to make those facts public:
I stepped into another band and founded a new side-project. The band is called Dissident(en)Club. My partners are Sven and Herp, the sound of the dissidents is best described as Avantgarde Pop & Rock.
The side-project is a cooperation of me and Dimi from the band Tulip (Hardcore from Bochum, Germany). Here we want to test our other sides of music: HipHop, TripHop and more. Our project is called Ditho.


My very private website has been developed.
Visit www.thorsten.gumball.de (german website) to get some info about me, look at some pictures and read the virtual diary/weblog (together with my brothers Peter and Stephan).


[2006-September-05]
I re-arranged the inner structure of wion-beats.de:
All kinds of news will be published on this site called "news". The introduction of wion and its music is now placed on the homepage, the site music is filled with the details of the official (demo-) albums - of course, there are MP3-files to download.


[2006-August-09]
At the music site you will find a medley (demo) of the new album to download.
It´s a Pre-Mix, so not mixed perfectly.
The tracklist got its final sequence, read the entry of July 27th, 2006.

[2006-April-15]
Upon mature and intensive deliberations I came to two important and farreaching decisions:

I put back all my solo-music-projects (wion, Chat Set Inc. and Coma Mission) into the startingpoint - the whole sprectrum of my (solo-) music will exclusive be published in the name of wion instantly.
The main reason is that I thought and composed in lines very much because of the separation of the styles (e.g. Dance and Trance, House and TripHop, Pop and Electronica). Thereby I lost a kind of playfull freedom that restricted my creativity very strong sometimes.

In matter of this decision some contents of this homepage had to be updated. And I took this chance of renewal to create a complete new design for wion-beats.
