Martin Baltser

Martin Baltser is an electro-indie and folk artist based in Aarhus, Denmark. His first album ’The Wasteland Incident’ was released in 2018 and reached half a million clicks on Spotify.
He is currently working on his second album along with three cinematic video singles out in 2020.

The first album was praised internationally for telling the incredibly honest story about being gay in a modern society. The music was picked by MTV Asia, German radio NDR2, playlists like <a href="spotify:playlist:2VZV8DwvHQE6ACyWCq9UY5" data-name="alexrainbirdMusic">alexrainbirdMusic</a>, and German magazines Akustik Gitarre and Tonspion. All music was recorded and produced in a small Danish apartment in Aarhus by Martin himself.

The music takes every-one on a fragile and yet magnificent journey with Baltser’s Falsetto on top of it all drawing parallels to artists like <a href="spotify:artist:4LEiUm1SRbFMgfqnQTwUbQ" data-name="Bon Iver">Bon Iver</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:5schNIzWdI9gJ1QRK8SBnc" data-name="Ben Howard">Ben Howard</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:6UUrUCIZtQeOf8tC0WuzRy" data-name="Sigur Rós">Sigur Rós</a>.
