  • “It's amazing what the Konstanz-based producer and musician has packed on his first album. If he still sounds like an Alan Parsons of the 21st century in the opener "Cities", you are soon confronted with rap, world music, trip hop, deep soul and lively hip jazz. (...) Top-class studio guests like the writer Martin Walser refine an unusual pop record, where everything just fits. "(Michael Hepp, Schwäbische Zeitung )
  • "Music for the pictures in your head." (Patrick van Odijk, Deutschlandfunk )
  • “The Konstanz musician and producer Patrick Wind (...) created a new musical genre: 'Fascination Sound' (...) and created a new, innovative musical style that cannot actually be described. Voices, everyday and nature noises mix and melodiously combine to form a meaningful and imaginative unit. "(Aurelia Scherrer, Thurgauer Zeitung ), in a wide variety of musical styles from rap, hip-hop and jazz to classical elements.
