My Secret Playground, a project by a Vienna-born artist known for navigating Berlin’s electronic music scene, has released a new EP titled End of Noise on Melopeé Records. The record is inspired by personal experiences such as grief and addiction, and emphasizes the artist’s evolution and joy in creating music.
Musical Influences and Journey
Initially rooted in rock and metal, My Secret Playground shifted towards dance music upon moving to Berlin. The discovery of indie dance and dark disco genres in 2020 greatly influenced the artist’s style, blending the worlds of rock and electronic music without the constraints of commercial expectations.
Reflections on Creativity
End of Noise is a reflection of the artist’s emotional journey over the previous years, showcasing a narrative quality reminiscent of 90s albums. The artist seeks to tell stories through music, aiming to capture the emotional essence that draws listeners in.
Impact of Sobriety
Choosing sobriety has transformed the artist’s life and creative process, bringing clarity and greater awareness to both music production and club experiences. This newfound perspective allows for a more authentic expression during performances, marking a significant turning point in the artist’s journey.
Collaborative Experiences
Involving over 130 musicians throughout My Secret Session, the project has taught valuable lessons about collaboration in electronic music. The emphasis on simplicity and connection, rather than individual ego, has been crucial for creating resonant music that engages audiences effectively.
End of Noise is out now on Melopeé Records.
