Sing Along to Songs You Don’t Know

múm

A whimsical shift toward organic chamber folk. Group vocals, toy instruments, and field recordings create a sun-dappled, surrealist forest floor soundscape.

It sounds like a bunch of forest creatures found a box of instruments and decided to start a choir.

A whimsical, sun-dappled collection of surrealist folk songs that feel both ancient and modern.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The rhythmic, percussive breathing that drives the track 'A River Don’t Stop to Breathe' like a biological metronome.
The sudden burst of choral energy in 'Húllabbalabbalúú' that feels like a spontaneous parade in a small village.
The way the delicate acoustic guitar in 'Prophecies and Reversed Memories' is slowly enveloped by a warm haze of strings.
