  • The German artist's next album is all about the wonders of nature.
  • Dominik Eulberg builds a Diorama image
  • Dominik Eulberg will release his next album, Diorama, this May on Traum. Eulberg's music has often been inspired by nature, which makes sense for a former biology student whose past professions include forest park ranger. Diorama could be his earthiest album yet, which each track devoting itself to one of the 11 "wonders of domestic nature," which Eulberg picked out with the help of German nature magazine NABU. Wonders that made the cut include bats, the bee orchid, the glow worm, the Icelandic cyperine, water and ants. Each of these gets its own blurb in the liner notes, explaining just what makes this particular wonder so great. "One ant alone is not capable of big achievements," Eulberg writes. "But through the brilliant, self-organised state formed out of millions of ants, a collective intelligence comes into being." Tracklist 01. Ta¨uschungs-Blume 02. Echomaus 03. Das Neunauge 04. Teddy Tausendentod 05. Islandmuschel 400 06. Die 3 Millionen Musketiere 07. H2O 08. Der Tanz der Glu¨hwu¨rmchen 09. Aeronaut 11. Metamorphose Traum will release Diorama on May 9th, 2011.
