Klangwirkstoff can be understood as a catalyst in music theory and it deals with the influence of deduced rhythms, resonances and frequencies in nature.
Based on the natural law of octave identity, the (so called) process of the occuring octave allows musicians to adjoin tone and tempo, analogous to the octave, in each periodic cycle. This method can be applied for example to the rotating orbit of the planets or to the molecular spectrum.
In Egypt the tradition of ancient, harmonic practise of music was used in ritualised healing processes and meditation.
In their creative, music practice, the musicians B. Ashra, Tommelon, Ricky Deadking (Eru) and Akasha Project are exploring the effects of planetary and molecular tunings. Since the mid-90's, both as soloists and as a group, they have been artistically active exploring sound and releasing several works under the name Morphon and Brain Entertainment Laboratory
The label Klangwirkstoff offers particular access to the experimentation in contemporary harmonic music thus constituting a network for the tuning of music which spans the micro- and macrocosm of audible possibilities.

Klangwirkstoff versteht sich als Kristallisationspunkt musikalischer Forschungen über die Wirkung direkt aus der Natur abgeleiteter Rhythmen, Resonanzen und Frequenzen.
Die sogenannte Oktavierung erlaubt es, ausgehend von dem Naturgesetz der Oktavgleichheit, zu jedem periodischen Ereignis oktavanalog einen Ton und ein Tempo zuzuordnen. Dieses Verfahren kann z. B. auf Planetenumlaufbahnen oder auch auf molekulare Spektren angewendet werden.
Die Tradition jahrtausende alter harmonikaler Musikanwendungen wurde schon im alten Ägypten zu Heilzwecken und Meditation angewendet.
Die Musiker B. Ashra, Tommelon, Ricky Deadking (Eru) und das Akasha Project erforschen in künstlerischer Anwendung seit Mitte der 90ziger, einzeln und gemeinsam in den Klangkollektiven Morphon, Brain Entertainment Laboratory (B.E.L.) und Sphere-Ra die Wirkung planetarer und molekularer Tunings.
Das Label Klangwirkstoff erlaubt Zugriff auf die Ergebnisse aktueller harmonikaler Musikforschung und bildet ein Netzwerk für getunte Musik, welche(s) sich von Mikro zu Makro spannt.

H2 – The Quantum Music of Hydrogen
Der Klang der Wasserstoffatome
Akustische Darstellung der Elektronensprünge des Wasserstoffes
Ausgehend von den Frequenzberechnungen Hans Coustos aus dem Jahr 1999 „H2 – Der Klang der Wasserstoffmoleküle“ entwickelte der in Rautheim lebende Komponist und Klangkünstler Barnim A. Schultze aka Akasha Project eine spezielle Kompositionsmethode zur oktavanalogen Umsetzung der spektralen Messdaten der Wasserstoffatome.
Diese Arbeit und die Produktion einer möglichst reinen Darstellung der harmonikalen Gegebenheiten auf der mikrokosmischen Quantenebene erstreckte sich über einen Zeitraum von zehn Jahren.
Das Ergebnis ist ein harmonikaler Klangkörper, der, entstanden auf der Basis eines „selbstkomponierenden“ musikalischen Prozesses, beim Hören ein Gefühl darüber vermittelt, was die Welt in Ihrem Innersten zusammenhält.
Quantenmusik ist Weltanhörung.

Om Meditation is a pure electronic meditation CD
B. Ashra has been a successful and well-known tone sculptor and sound alchemist for many years. Along with his Ambient Solo Project (called B. Ashra) he works with many groups including 'Brain Entertainment Laboratory', 'Morphon', 'Toshra' and 'Psychotikum'. He uses the name Robert Templa for his solo techno project. Apart from his many varied music projects he does professional mastering in his studio in berlin: www.gl-audio.de
The idea behind his newest CD, Om Meditation, is to act as an aid for meditative and therapeutical exercises. It is an invitation to relax and harmonize with one's surroundings. Through minimalistic modulations the sound changes gradually --- the amount of tones has been consciously reduced in order to open up the listener's world for personal experiences. (Thus this production focuses on supporting meditations or spiritual exercises, rather than being a distraction).
'Om', which is an exact overtone of the tropical earth year (earth's orbit around the sun), is the root tone of a large part of classical Indian music. It is a C-sharp with -31.38 cent and has a frequency of 136.10 Hertz. The CD running time of 62 minutes also coincides with the cycle of many meditations.
1. Om 31:48 min. [Om |Tropical Year|Cis|136,1 Hz|127,60 bpm|-31,38 cent]
2. Mars 21:30 min. [Mars |D|144,72 Hz|67,8bpm|-25.07 cent]
3. Venus 22:47 min. [Venus |A|221.23 Hz|103,70bpm|+9,64 cent]

Ambient Music meets Science
Now after the first release of Morphon at the compilation „active agent of sound“ kw002 at the end of 2007, they presents their first Longplay: OM Mars Venus
This CD contains spherical electronic ambientmusic with a philosophic background.
With their project, Morphon, Eru (electronics and guitar), Tom Wölke aka Tommelon (electronics and guitar), and B. Ashra (electronics) are exploring artistically the mental and physical effects of natural vibrations and rhythms (for example, planetary cycles).
The Berlin label, Klangwirkstoff, offers its listeners access to the fruits of contemporary, harmonical music research and constitutes a network for tuned music which spans the micro- and macrocosm of audible possibilities.

Online Release of Brain Entertainment Laboratory
„In Ovo – live at Fusion Festival 2005“
..
After the first CD/LP Release of Brain Entertainment Laboratory "The Sound of THC", which was the world premiere of a scientific calculated thc-scoring, now B.E.L. comes with their second release:
B.E.L. - In Ovo - live at Fusion Festival 2005
The basic principles of this musical scoring bases upon Hans Coustos
calculations, who found the octave-analogue frequencies related to the 6
mainspectra (main resonances) of the THC Delta 9 molecule.
The spectral analysis is the admitted scientific method to classify molecules and to calculate their resonances. This active agent of sound (Klangwirkstoff) is a homeopathic-acting media.
As usual B.E.L. transfer this calculations into a Live-Ambient-Dub session going from electronic to bizarre.
With that first Online Release the Label Klangwirkstoff from Berlin showcase themself.
