Songbroker Welcomes Molino
Songbroker is very pleased to look after the music of Molino.
Molino makes futuristic music from a bygone era, carefully created by musical adventurers from New-Zealand, Germany, Holland and Iceland.
An indie pop orchestra with hissing electronics and ominous brass instruments, marching through abandoned streets in a dystopian world, shattered fragments of Thom Yorke and Tune-Yards roar in a sky crackling with electricity, bending over a valley of tilting skyscrapers where sounds echo from bands like Beirut, Balthazar and Efterklang.
In recent years, Molino played such festivals as So What’s Next?, Cross-Linx, Incubate and won the Best Musician Prize at De Grote Prijs van Nederland.
Later this year the band will release the symphonic pop album Lo and Behold, which originated from the lockdown project of the same name. Flowing melodies and fluid harmonies float around the globe, grasped from the air by musicians in different countries, adding new layers to each song. Finally brought together and mixed by producer Wannes Salomé, a member of the celebrated electronic pop act Klangstof. With Lo and Behold, Molino has made a boundless album for a confined world.
