Protomaterial Records is excited to introduce "New Home," the debut album from Pol Tonin, the experimental folk project by Vienna-born artist Daniel Pabst. Pabst has a unique talent for blending artistic expression with personal storytelling. In "New Home," he invites listeners on a rich, emotional journey that feels both delicate and layered.
The album kicks off with the lead single, "Dear Pol," which sets the tone for what’s to come. This track beautifully combines free-flowing creativity with catchy melodies, showcasing Pabst's knack for creating songs that feel both spontaneous and carefully crafted. Recorded in his country house, which he turned into a makeshift studio, the song carries a genuine sense of honesty and openness that flows throughout the entire album.
With 12 tracks totaling 48 minutes and 22 seconds, "New Home" reflects Pabst’s curiosity and passion for his art. Standout tracks like "Take Care" and "I Love You" dive deep into themes of connection and self-reflection. Each song feels like a heartfelt message to the listener, inviting you to explore Pabst’s world where folk music meets experimental sounds.
Although the album feels very personal, it also has a broad appeal. Pol Tonin's talent for blending gentle acoustic sounds with surprising musical elements creates a listening experience that is both comforting and thought-provoking. With soft melodies and intricate layers of instruments, "New Home" highlights Pabst's ability to make personal experiences resonate with everyone.
