It’s finally here! On New Music Friday, we have Ben Böhmer’s long-awaited third studio album, Bloom. After three years since his last album, Begin Again, Ben is set to showcase the full breadth of his artistry beyond the boundaries of dance music. Released via Ninja Tune, Bloom promises to testify to Ben’s musical evolution and creativity. Don’t miss out on this extraordinary musical journey!
Bloom
The 11 track LP embodies a captivating creative reset, capturing profound personal growth and an innovative approach to Ben’s music. This release marks a remarkable evolution in his artistic journey. One departs from the grief-laden themes of his earlier works Breathing and Begin Again. Ben mesmerizes fans with his singles ‘Hiding’, ‘Rust’, and ‘Faithless’. They epitomize a striking departure from his signature sound, heralding an exciting new direction for Bloom. The releases highlight a wide diversity for Ben exploring new musical territories, blending Indie and Pop elements seamlessly into his production.
Let’s chat through a few tracks that stood out to me in this LP. ‘Best Life’ is an uplifting and reflective track that beautifully merges Jonny Stöcker’s soulful vocals with Böhmer’s signature melodic house elements. Its infectious optimism truly shines, making it a standout highlight of the album. ‘Evermore’ truly captivates with its cinematic quality and dramatic build, inviting listeners into a deeper, more atmospheric realm within the album. ‘The Sun’, stands as the album’s powerful final single, embodying the theme of rebirth. It seamlessly blends heartfelt lyrics with empowering instrumental work, and the collaboration with Oh Wonder infuses a captivating pop-dance feel, establishing it as one of the album’s most accessible and resonant tracks.
