A Living, Breathing Organism is the debut EP of Frankfurt-based electropop band NAMU. Rich, saturated vocals and nostalgia-evoking melodies meet synths, atmospheric guitars, synth basses and booming, hip-hop inspired drums.
The trio’s debut was produced in the Nuremberg recording studio Ghost City Recordings by Jan Kerscher, who has notably worked with electropop duo <a href="spotify:artist:7mTyxMGqsoIl6ofVdtjfux" data-name="Hundreds">Hundreds</a>.
The multicultural roots of band members Daniel Kim, Sebastian Rodriguez, and Raphael Reichert-Lübbert lie in Korea, Spain, and Germany. This diversity clearly shines through. Their music deals with inner conflicts, coping with pressure, and internal rebirth through the art of self-awareness. NAMU (Korean: tree), represents the amalgamation of this concept, the intertwining of these roots, of the nature loving and environmentally conscious band in their early 20’s. Trees are known to be a symbol for rebirth.
On stage the musicians merge with their own blend of electronic and acoustic sounds, taking the audience on a journey into the subconscious. Always striving to create with authenticity and innovation. The band’s influences range from artists like <a href="spotify:artist:53KwLdlmrlCelAZMaLVZqU" data-name="James Blake">James Blake</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4LEiUm1SRbFMgfqnQTwUbQ" data-name="Bon Iver">Bon Iver</a> to <a href="spotify:artist:2h93pZq0e7k5yf4dywlkpM" data-name="Frank Ocean">Frank Ocean</a>. “It’s fascinating, how a simple idea that you hum under your breath on the train can develop into a song over weeks and months.”
Raw. Intimate. NAMU.
