Return to the cold north for the autumn time, this time presenting you
a new EP from swedish Mosaik, for many people also known as Radix.
While listening to these five tunes, one might get a wonderfully nostalgic
feeling, as the music has slightly retro styled mood to it, where melodies
are the heart of it all, truly faithful to his unique style. And while the
surrounding sounds carries a modern edge, all this together makes you wish
the atmosphere and the warmth from the songs would remain in the room
long time after it has finished playing. Collaborating on this release,
Nummelin on “Tickles” and closing the EP together with Planet Boelex
on “Nanomies”. Here’s how the man himself describes the release:

“So, here it is. Leandi is my spring and summer of 2009. More specifically
it’s my most sincere release in a very long time. It’s the result of looking
at the creation process in a different light, without engaging in reasoning
and just letting the music come as it may. Normally I would venture into
more ambient landscapes and experimental sounds, but I wanted this release
to be simple and open. Heavily inspired by childhood, fatherhood, watching
my son grow up, play, communicate and learn the ways of the world.”

  1. Mosaik.. one of the best Ex-Scenemusicians of all time in my opinion – Delivered finally again :) Awesome Awesome songs, Leandi and Sporel are the 2 best songs of this Release – but the other 3 songs are of course also great.

    A must watch.. you sure dont forget that tunes for a long time. Still, miss a bit the powerful touch of the old Mosaik/Radix Songs… But time changes, and if the change sounds like that i am more as pleased :)

  2. You wont believe how glad I was when I discovered these new Mosaik releases!
    By far my favorite musician. If only I could be as good as him in making music.
    We have mutual harmonies when it comes to musicmaking, but I could never produce something with the same personality.

    Dont you ever dare to stop making music!

  3. Sooo beautiful. Thank you so much for this amazing release. Inspiring, and nice to see Mosaik on Soft Phase! :)

  4. I just listened to the recent softphase release “leandi” by “mosaik” and what a release…well polished sound…echoing in a fantasy atmosphere…with optimistic melodies that emphasize the pureness of time…a music coming from another planet…a planet of peace and innocence…a flawless release…congratulations.

  5. One really awesome release. Thanks Soft Phase for releasing such a wonderfull album.

    Last but not least also a huge thanks to Mosaik and everyone involved in this release for bringin light in my life thru music.

  6. I have barely have heard more than a few songs of mosaik and I am already counting this artist among my most favored. Making the music free is even a bigger bonus.

  7. Wonderful release, thankyou! I stumbled upon this release by accident while searching for older material, quite happy to see Mosaik still releasing music.

    Måste bara säga att din/eran musik har alltid gått rakt in i min själ

    Jag upptäckte din och Anne´s musik för flera år sedan. och det är något som för alltid har präglat min existens här på Tellus

    Kände bara att jag var tvungen att säga att jag är din/eran själsfrände

    Har mailat till Anne/Illuvia tidigare, och utryckt min uppskattning

    Ha det bra Jacob Mvh C
