ORBIT KID - WITH THE NEW ALBUM ORBIT KID SOCIETY
Attention to detail, room for improvisation, no genre boundaries. This is the musical philosophy behind Orbit Kid Society. The creative head of the ensemble is Berlin-based singer and composer Sophie Lindmüller. Musical diversity is at the forefront of the album in every respect. "There are many instruments on Orbit Kid Society, but not all at the same time. My idea was to use and combine instruments from different genres to give each song/composition an individual sound," explains the composer.
Instead of slipping into musical arbitrariness, Lindmüller and her top-class band colleagues present a dramaturgically coherent album that is captivating in every respect. In their sound universe, free-floating sounds that emerge in the moment meet composed lines, tinny grooves and electronic samples. "Even if some of my compositions are not easy-listening, I want them to be digestible and accessible for the audience," emphasizes the composer.
When it comes to breaking new ground, she feels different impulses within herself. "Part of me simply wants to go back to my teenage years, when I didn't want to write music that was too complicated or overly ambitious, but simply be the singer I wanted to be as a 4-year-old kindergarten child." On the other hand, she is aware that nobody is stopping her from taking new musical directions. And so her musical maturity and poetic inventiveness provide the best conditions for further groundbreaking originality.
