Madeleine Bloom’s debut album ‘Minutia’ is an eclectic blend of impassioned songs made of piano, mbira, upright bass, cello, strings, harps, ticking clocks, S-Bahn sounds, water, paper, coffee brewing, stones, glass, ice, music boxes, steps and lots and lots of vocals. Madeleine set up a little homerecording studio in her living room in Berlin, where she locked herself in for days on end lost in her own sonic world writing, recording and producing her album almost entirely alone. She emerged with 12 multi-faceted songs that carry her distinct signature, show her knack for classical instrumentation, field recordings, intricate melodies and fragile, beautifully layered vocals. Her music is quirky and eccentric, yet catchy.
