Released two two live session videos; Vulka and Aralia (solobass).
The Aralia video was featured as Today's video at No Treble, with the comment: "His composition skills and use of effects combine to create one stunning soundscape."

Had the great honor to get to know and get lessons off Nik Bärtsch one of my idols, and Björn Meyer the extremely talented bassist in Zürich and Bern. Will never forget, a lifetime experience!
