Rather than sounding experimental or forced, the tracks on Prime Time flow with an effortless musicality, proving that odd meters can be as swinging, lyrical, and emotionally resonant as standard 4\/4 time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A standout moment on the album is the track \u201cOut of Time,\u201d a compelling 10-bar blues rendered entirely in 11\/8 and built on rich sus13 harmonies. Guitarist Gundy Keller delivers a stunning, expressive solo that highlights both technical brilliance and deep musicality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hans Scheffler produced and arranged all tracks, creating spacious, dynamic frameworks that allow the music to breathe. HP Salentin contributed all horn parts, adding warmth, lyricism, and vitality to every composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith Prime Time, we wanted to show that odd time signatures don\u2019t have to feel odd,\u201d said Hans Scheffler. \u201cThese rhythms can be beautiful, danceable, and deeply human \u2014 especially fitting for the strange and unpredictable times we\u2019re living in.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prime Time is positioned as the perfect soundtrack for our current era \u2014 a musical reminder that complexity and beauty can coexist harmoniously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The album will be available on all major streaming platforms and in physical format starting June 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/hp-salentin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/albumart-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3828\" style=\"width:419px;height:auto\" srcset=\"http:\/\/hp-salentin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/albumart-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/hp-salentin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/albumart-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/hp-salentin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/albumart-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/hp-salentin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/albumart-768x768.jpg 768w, http:\/\/hp-salentin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/albumart-60x60.jpg 60w, http:\/\/hp-salentin.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/albumart.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/6vnAhSCoX3MxNTGnLCXhGy?utm_source=generator\">https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/6vnAhSCoX3MxNTGnLCXhGy?utm_source=generator<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Prime Time\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/6vnAhSCoX3MxNTGnLCXhGy?si=se2fuiUeRvGpdnnIpXRsAA&amp;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Album \u201cPrime Time\u201d Finding musical beauty in the oddest places.
