Brothers Sebastian and Daniel Selke’s music can be likened to an exercise of memory retrieval. All of their four albums explore and pay tribute to their past; growing up in East Berlin in the final decade of the GDR. At its core, the duo’s music can be heard as a dialogue between siblings about their shared upbringings and experiences, a conversation given form through Sebastian’s cello and Daniel’s piano keys, in the fusion that becomes CEEYS. In 2017, the duo also founded Q3 AMBIENTFEST, a three-day happening for neoclassical and experimental music, which seeks to explore the cultural and musical impact of East German heritage.

Throughout their careers, the Potsdam-based brothers Sebastian and Daniel Selke have repeatedly dealt with issues of their communist-dominated East German heritage. The memories saved by their music are by far not only historical, but above all emotional.

At its core, the music of the duo can be heard like a dialogue between brothers about their upbringing and their experiences, a conversation that takes shape through Sebastian’s cello and Daniel’s piano, and which unites in their joint playing to form CEEYS. Their new album ‘HAUSMUSIK’ is a musical continuation of this dialogue – a melodic search for balance and harmony.
