2026 Schimmelreiter Music for Film
This project approaches film as an experiment from a musical perspective. Inspired by Theodor Storm’s Der Schimmelreiter, it develops a fragmented, drifting narrative rather than directly adapting the original work. Images, subtitles, and a live ambient score are presented simultaneously, allowing narrative elements and atmosphere to emerge without fixed structure. Supported by the Verband für aktuelle Musik Hamburg we were able to shoot and direct the movie ourselfs within a few days and show the work in a Cinema in Hamburg. Photo: Thắng Lê-Phước
2025LongingAudiovisual Performance
The series of audiovisual performances titled “Longing” is based on Joseph von Eichendorff’s poem “Die blaue Blume” and explores the Romantic theme of longing. The project investigates this emotional dimension through the use of various field recording methods, particularly in urban environments. Walks, conversations, and reflections on personal impressions give rise to multi-layered soundscapes, which are presented as live arrangements in conjunction with filmed observations inspired by Slow Cinema. The project has already been realized in Bratislava, Stockholm, and Hamburg and is conceived as a transdisciplinary approach that combines sound, image, and personal experiences to facilitate an immersive engagement with the theme of longing.

2024Study for Pipe OrganSite-Specific Concert
On 6 November 2024, we presented a sound composition created in Hamburg-Schnelsen as part of a literature festival in a church. By integrating field recordings and tape loops recorded on site, we designed an immersive listening experience specifically created for the spatial and acoustic atmosphere of the performance venue. In this context, we combine the warm, unamplified sounds of the church organ with audio tracks played back in a wide stereo field. The aim was to explore new acoustic spatial concepts through the interplay of different sound sources and to immerse the listener in a multi-layered soundscape.

2023SkatelandSite-Specific Concert
In 2023, we realized a site-specific concert at I Punkt Skateland, supported by the Claussen-Simon-Stiftung. The project focused on acoustic exploration as a means of creating immersive listening environments. Through the deliberate shaping of sonic space, layered sound structures emerged that invite alternative modes of spatial perception. The work engages with unconventional concert settings, integrating their specific conditions into the compositional process. In doing so, it examines established modes of listening and proposes a reconfiguration of spatial experience. Photos: David Reineke, Poster Design: Max Arff
2022-w/ Frank KoenenCollaboration with Dance
In collaboration with Stockholm-based dancer and artist Frank Koenen, Hermes Hemmnis develop a shared performative practice rooted in an ongoing exchange between movement and sound. Each project begins with a concrete starting point – an object, a gesture, or an idea – proposed by Koenen, which serves as the foundation for a new composition. From this material, Hermes Hemmnis develop original music, to which Koenen in turn responds with a choreography. In performance, the music is always played live, creating a space in which sound and movement continuously inform and transform each other. Photo: Tim Albrecht

2026 Only a Picture EP

In August 2025 a new recording was created in a remote forest cabin in Sweden. It combines field recordings of the surroundings and interacting musicians with synthesizer sounds and processed acoustic guitar tones. The material, recorded using various specialized microphones and a four-track cassette recorder, a series of experimental compositions characterized by their multi-layered structure.

2025 Noch einmal so lange träumen EP

The EP ‘Noch einmal so lange träumen’ was recorded between 26 December 2023 and 3 January 2024 during a stay at the Worpswede Artists Residences. Inspired by the vast and atmospheric landscape of the nearby Teufelsmoor, five tracks were created that capture the mood of this environment. In January 2025, the EP was released as a cassette in a edition of 75 copies. The project takes an approach that combines sound with the special atmosphere of the location to enable an exploration of space and mood
