The microphone on a hike through a deep forest: It finds radical fairies, cuddly bears, asexual mosses, polypotent snails, some people. A Documentary radio play about stories of queer life in the countryside.

Radio play by Mara May and Micha Kranixfeld
composition: Hauptmeier | Recker
production: Deutschlandfunk Kultur

From field recordings that we recorded in the Thuringian Forest, we created a large number of compositions and soundscapes for this radio play. The compositions are closely linked to the dramaturgy of the piece. The holistic sound concept creates an arc from the finely composed sound design over abstract electroacoustic music to tonal and rhythmic elements, which, however, are always connected to the organic sound character of the forest.
