WELCOME TO THE PORTFOLIO OF FABIAN GIMPEL

Fabian Gimpel, born in 1998, Bad Wildungen, also going by the names Habian, trilbibi, or Fabi, is educated by, working in and producing work for the internet. Coming from a religious upbringing, I finally got to experience the full glory of the internet when I freed myself from the shackles imposed by my father, bursting out to the world wide web by the age of 12. Growing up I always had an interest in fine art, being mesmerized by paintings of local artists hanging around my parents house, or even graffiti in cities; my biggest hobby as a child was to draw. Having discovered electronic music on the web, I quickly decided it to be my hyperfixation for years and years to come, downloading a trial version of Fruity Loops at the age of 13 and buying the program at the end of the year and continuing to work with DAWs ever since. Since then my main interests are to dig through online libraries and networks to look for the most unknown stuff that hasn't found its way into popular culture, looking everything up I come across in the process. During my early days on YouTube I discovered a preference for English content over German, incentivising me to get fluent in the English language. Never untrue to my background, I focus on things where I find beauty, in emotion, philosophy and culture.

Being raised we learn to believe in good things to come, there is few experience and reason to it, but we learn to accept positivity and beauty in life, through a godly power.

The day has come where we question what was taught. Having the opportunity to see everything known to man, we realise how futile our existence can be. Crushing down on us, comes the consciousness of what it means to be human, equal to everyone and no greater than a grain of sand, in the view of the cosmos.

But if we are of no importance, then so are the people living happy lives. We can find back to blissful ignorance, searching for meaning in smaller things, positive and negative in equilibrium.

The track was made as a project for the Soundklasse of KhK WiSe 2019/2020. The challenge for me was to produce a genre I've never produced before, making Raggaton into a highly melodic driven, energetic and distorted four on the floor banger.

It was on the funeral of my grandmother in early 2020 when I last heard church music again, inspired by the sound of the organ I made a cloudrap song dedicated to my deceased relative. The choice of instruments was based on the music she listened to at home and her Religious beliefs.

The PKO comic (written in german) was the first comic I ever printed. It was made in Paula Bullings comic workshop in 2019, which I was part of as a guest student. It is about artificial intellegence and if we can create a consciousness within a program.
