I still visit my village quite often, as my parents and one of my sisters live there, but also I feel the village is more of an isolated, unreal part of me.

I think there is a big question in how much music a film needs - a lot of films are overloaded for my taste, so that the story can't carry its own weight.
Volker Bertelmann
I can't really say that film music inspired me it is more the films themselves, in connection with the music.
Volker Bertelmann
I am a big fan of the Coen Brothers I like their kind of absurd, dark approach.
Volker Bertelmann
I like the influence of pictures on music and the other way around.
Volker Bertelmann
I had a record deal with Sony in the beginning of the 90s, and I was rapping and singing in my band.

In a way, I pick out the films that have a same attitude as music that I like.
Volker Bertelmann
I am still happy to be close to the city, [to be] connected to the intellectual source in Ferndorf. In this area, [I feel] connected with nature and unimportant in a postitive way.
Volker Bertelmann
When I'm walking with my father through the woods, and we reach a place where you see so far that your ego suddenly shrinks because you are so touched by the dimension of your surroundings.
Volker Bertelmann
Even films without music are inspiring, as I think a good story is full of changes, different paces, and ideas.
Volker Bertelmann
I always felt strongly connected to the region where I was born. But after leaving school, the only clear thought I had about my life was to leave this provincial area and go to places where real life was happening.
Volker Bertelmann
I think for me, fusion is a word that describes a positive, collaborative combination of different styles. Every kind of new music was created by a fusion of different styles because to move on and find something new you have to allow all the influences within yourself a voice.
