Matija

Music was our first love. It did not always last nor was it always unconditional. This love, however, is something we can all agree on. As rare as this may be these days. Music was also Matija’s first love. When Munich’s indie pop darlings appeared on the scene with their precious 2017 debut ‘Are We An Electric Generation Falling Apart?’ for Clouds Hill, they were so young you could hardly believe they had been playing together for six years already. This windfall made the album become one of the most exciting indie debuts of the year. Their second studio album ‘byebyeskiesofyesterday’ was released when the world was at a standstill. The Matija of 2020 are pure musical introspection, urging us listeners to do the same and think about, well, stuff. From a musical perspective, it may well be a bit more chilled than on their stormy, adolescent first record.
