Vögel by Olec Mün

Olec Mün presents «Vögel» (Birds), his brand new piano album, set for release on June 24th, 2021. Mostly composed during the first lockdown, from March to August 2020, it is an album inspired by the sense of freedom that birds represent. «Vögel» is an album containing tranquility and intimacy: all its melodies draw elegant, minimal melodic shapes, just like a flock of birds.

To explain the German title, the artist underlines that “this album comes after my LP «Reconciliation», through which I made peace with my Jewish family history, and consequently with Germany and German language. Two years ago I could have never imagined I could be able to give an album a title in German, but now after making this process it somehow sounds natural.” says Olec Mün.

The minimalism of the compositions of the album has a powerful, emotive strength; an almost unconscious, subtle fierce emerges. All musical patterns develop a unique and emotional dimension, which connects all the tracks in a delicate, inner experience. The entire album is composed on piano, and in one track the wonderful violin of Italian composer Laura Masotto appears blending in the melody of “Storni”, giving life to a very special collaboration.

Argentinian composer based in Spain.
Pianist, minimal electronics, experimental.
His music is a constant search for the Unknown an earn for revelation of light.
