Dominik Honold rocks. As Protonaut, his song “Talk Of The Town” is a revelation and an amazing leap forward into a new accessible funk sound.
I have an affinity for solo projects. Love to hear ideas go from a single brain directly into my Uncle Ears. So back in early 2021 when Square Bubble (link) came out I appreciated the scope and admired the talent behind the collection of songs. The producer and engineer is talented in front of and behind the microphone.
Founded in Germany in 2015, Protonaut has released two full-length experimental rock concept albums by 2018. Shifting the focus more towards alternative and indie rock, the 2021 LP “Square Bubble” is sure to get you moving with its refreshing swings between all-out rock explosions and smooth grooves.

Imagine the pure joy of stepping away from “work” at your own studio (link) to produce your own stuff. “Talk Of The Town” is infused with that joy.
The song honors a multiple of influences while at the same time bringing something fresh to the ears. It’s OK to live for those hooks, and “Talk Of the Town” is ready to deliver them for you.

Honold’s studio (Facebook page link) is in his home town of Erkelenz, Germany (Wiki Link), a town of about 44,000.
