Musette – “Datum”

I’ve had the pure pleasure of listening to Musette’s new album “Datum” for a while now, and the music is just as beautiful as the cover art. This is instrumental music, – calm and soothing. The man behind this wonderful music is the Swedish composer and pianist Joel Danell, and on his debut album “Datum” he creates amazing musical landscapes of muted pianos, acoustic guitars, melodica, violin, accordion, whistling, dobro, sounds of running water, sounds from the woods, birds and bees. The songs all have names after dates, and they are like Joel Danell’s notebook of moments in his life, – a view from a balcony in a Stockholm suburb in late October, a remembrance of the rushing bicycle and the passing landscape in the beginning of June. This album is highly recommended!

“Datum” is due for release on the new label Tona Serenad on February 24th, and this is also the debut of the label.
