MIND THE MOON (produced by longtime collaborator Tobias Kuhn) is the third album from MILKY CHANCE — childhood friends Phillipp Dausch and Clemens Rehbein — and serves as a distillation of their songwriting spirit.
Pulling back from the layered, polyphonic approach of 2017’s BLOSSOM — itself a change-up from the sleek minimalism of their breakout debut Sad necessary, which produced the global smash “Stolen Dance” — MIND THE MOON strikes an infectious balance of melody and atmosphere.
The record’s many moods, from the pop-gospel fusion of LADYSMITH BLACK MAMBAZO collaboration “Eden’s House” to the dancehall-steeped “Fado,” are a result of Dausch and Rehbein’s unique artistic relationship, and trace a lifetime of musical influences ranging from reggae and rock to hip-hop, electronica, gospel, and musical styles from around the globe.
