Ulrich Siegmund's posting
The right portal NIUSreportedunder the heading “Who is Ulrich Siegmund’s wife?” she recently posted a photo online, which her husband, the AfD’s top candidate in Saxony-Anhalt, Ulrich Siegmund, also shared. He added this to the photocomment“It starts here and it continues from here and everything is possible - with you!”, taken from the song “Everything is possible“ the right-wing extremist music project “Eisenherz”.
Connection to the AI creation “Eisenherz”
The AI music projectOakheart, according to its own description, “The Dance Band of the Revolution”, has been active since 2025 at the latest. The exact day it was founded is not publicly documented; the associated oneYouTube channelwas inAugust 2025and has over 300,000 listeners per month. Alexander Holl appears as the person responsible: ImimprintOn the website it is referred to as “Band Management”.
In January 2026, Alexander Holl adopted the name “Eichenherz”.Enter trademark; the entry took place in March 2026. Further research revealed that heBrand ownerthe one in Rhineland-PalatinateHolzhausenestablished company “Hasta La Ultra" is.
“Eichenherz” has been releasing a large number of right-wing extremist songs for months. The song “Your Nightmare” will beadvertised with the note, he is "the mirror for everyone who helps finance their daily torment with their voice. You had the choice, you had the power - now live with the spirits you called. Every victim is also your fault. You could just as easily have wielded the knife yourself!". TheSPIEGEL titleImmediately picking up on the “most dangerous man in Germany”, “Eisenherz” published onesong of the same namein homage to Siegmund. Other titles are “We want the land back”, “Remigration 26”, “1942 (After Stalingrad in the snow)”.
In onereel on InstagramAntifascists are insulted as “bugs” and the children’s song “Auf der Mauer, auf der Luer” is rewritten accordingly, intended as a response to the song “Shit AfD“.
Current will beon eBayA so-called “XXL fan package” from “Eichenherz” was auctioned off as part of a “charity auction” and advertised that the whole thing was signed by Ulrich Siegmund. The income from this is given away, it sayswebsite, “aware of Ulrich Siegmund or his office”.
Conclusion: “Eichenherz” is the prototype of future mass communication
The “Eichenherz” project is particularly interesting because it provides an example of how “artificial intelligence” is used for right-wing extremist political communication. With comparatively little effort, new content is constantly produced in order to be immediately fed into social networks and streaming platforms.
This is not just about the spread of individual right-wing extremist messages. What is more remarkable is the interweaving with the AfD's political communication: the boundaries between music project, digital propaganda and party political staging become permeable. Political messages from the AfD, or reports about the AfD, become songs, songs become social media content and these in turn become material for the AfD's top candidate's public self-promotion.
This is not really a new dimension of right-wing media strategy, but AI increases the speed and the number of hits. AI enables political communication at such speed and volume, including the ability to be produced in almost infinite quantitiesBullshit, which would hardly be conceivable using classic forms of production.
“Eichenherz” must therefore be understood as a symptom of a political development: right-wing extremist actors are beginning to exploit the possibilities of generative AI for their digital mass communication and are increasingly connecting these with the already existing structures and reach of the AfD.
