Since first turning heads with his 2016 debut EP Tuur Man Welten, Paschburg has bewitched and charmed with his original compositional style. His contemporary fusion of ambient, pop, classical and electronic music finds him conveying deep emotions through his central instrument, the piano. He has collaborated with the likes of RY X, Hania Rani, Robert Lippok and Ah! Kosmos as well as writing the soundtrack for the 2021 French film “Presque” (“Beautiful Minds”). This new album features one track made with Frank Wiedemann - one half of acclaimed electronic duo Âme - and award-winning sound engineer Francesco Donadello who has worked with everyone from Jóhann Jóhannsson to Thom Yorke.
Niklas's personal journey becomes a captivating and colourful musical journey that combines his melancholic and delicate pianism with synths and electronic beats, suggestive ambient and the evocative voices of German singer Lúisa, Spaniard Bianca Steck and the Icelandic Kaktus Einarsson, frontman of post-punk band Fufanu. It is a move towards ambient-pop that is intimate and meditative but with positive and uplifting vibes.
