IBADET RAMADANI

Description

Ibadet Ramadani demonstrates her unique gift for writing intense songs on her self-titled debut album. Pop, folk and americana come together here to create ten impressive songs with a modern yet timeless sound. Ten years after the end of her band, indie pop favorites Super 700, Ibadet Ramadani took her guitar into the forest. Alone in a gazebo, she tried to find out whether music could bloom again in the soil of her life - and if so, what kind. And the urge and inspiration were born. Carefully orchestrated songs about farewell, love, hope and pain. Songs that are all rooted in personal experiences, some of which were also cathartic. Ibadet Ramadani's first solo album is both a monument to the memory of her family and a collection of intimate songs about the human condition. An album that sings of things that feel strangely familiar to us and yet universal in nature. Musically, producer Martin Gallop has wrapped these stories full of small and large wonders in an earthy-toned coat woven from delicate threads of west coast sounds. Depending on the light, sometimes folk, sometimes country, tuned to the sound of strings, Hammond organ and brass. Above all this hovers Ibadet's clear and soothing voice. Timeless, calm and unformatted (pop) music.
