- I love that there is a lens about Hans, and smiled reading about his favorite time is sitting with a cup of coffee & his synth composing....creating pieces in the sanctuary of your studio then seeing it in electrifying bigger than life form on the big screen- sort of the highest form of great music video..... since his work just continues to get better and better, I can't wait to hear what more the Maestro has in store for us...
