Vinyl LP pressing. ARTIFACT marks a new chapter in Parov Stelar's creative career. For the album, the Austrian drew inspiration from fragments of memory, parallel worlds, and the fleeting nature of the moment. The tracks range between sweeping pop and electronic concepts, late-Romantic grandeur, and cinematic power. Musically, this results in a very open and emotional language: electronic sounds merge with classical orchestration, strings, piano, and expansive soundscapes unfold alongside pulsating beats and grand melodies. It's a sound that relies less on hooks and more on atmosphere, on musical associations rather than linearity - and culminates in hits such as Rebel Love, and Falling Into Time. Despite it's conceptual breadth, ARTIFACT is a very personal work. It's not just about the songs, but also about what lies behind them - about attitude and honesty, perhaps even a certain risk, because such grandeur takes courage. The artist himself says: "I never made music to look cool. I was never afraid of the big melody, never afraid of my feelings. I think there's nothing more beautiful than being able to surprise yourself." When you listen to ARTIFACT, you realize: These are not just empty words. They shape the album and give it it's poise.
