Som jag sa i en annan post så skriver jag mycket texter, ofta på engelska men även på svenska. Ofta på temat hemstad, uppväxt, bli äldre. Vemod med hopp ungefär. Skulle vilja komma i kontakt med folk som kan vara intresserade av teman/texter för att se om det går göra nåt av dom. Hör av er isåfall.

Ive been out of permanent job for almost 20 months now and I am barley getting by. I do have small income here and there for side work I do as freelance but in general I am stuck. I have done everything I am supposed to. There are no stones unturned. And I still continue to do everything. But nothing happens.

In general, most jobs I apply for ends up in an automatic rejection email within 1-2 days. Regardless if I am a 100% fit or not. I have even applied for roles that could be written for me, and I´m still not getting more than a quick rejection email. And sure, some idiots thinks this is a me-problem. Change your CV, apply more, do this and that etc and thinks thats the issue. Smart people knows that the system is broken.

For the few roles I actually ends up in final rounds, then I get rejected anyway for silly reasons (last time everyone said the job was mine until the VP told me she wanted a "Benelux person" despite the role being for the nordics) and usually I find out that months later they still havent hired anyone for the role. Was there even a job to begin with? Nobody knows but I have my suspicions....

I am at the point now where I know there is no point anymore. I still go through the motions but regardless of auto rejections or final rounds, I dont take it seriously anymore. How could I after almost 2 years of this shit? So much is out of my hands anyway. Im too old, too expensive, too whatever they make as an excuse etc. The worst part is that I dont see light in the end of a tunnel. I dont even think I am in an tunnel, more likely a hole digging downwards. To be honest, I dont think I will ever get a job again. And that without any fault of mine.

And its not getting easier when people around me dont understand. And yes, I am more often in a bad mood, more often cold to others etc. But I am just human, of course this effects me. Not sure what I wanted to say with this post, I guess I needed to vent.

I'm a songwriter based in Germany writing singer-songwriter, heartland rock, Americana and country-rock influenced songs.

I have dozens of completed lyrics and demo recordings and I'm looking for artists, producers or musicians who hear potential in developing them further.

I'm not looking for session work or hired services. I'm looking for genuine creative collaboration where strong songwriting meets production, performance and recording skills.

My focus is memorable melodies, storytelling, emotional honesty and songs that feel human rather than formulaic.

If you're a singer, producer or artist looking for original material and want to hear examples, send me a message.
