Biography

German composer and pianist Niklas Paschburg was born in 1994 in Hamburg. Inspired by nature, his music is based in acoustic instrumentation, but takes full advantage of the various moods that can be achieved through electronic means. He released his debut single, “Dawn”, in 2014, and his debut EP, Tuur mang Welten, followed two years later. He then set about to compose his first album, which was informed primarily from a trip to Grömitz in 2017 where he spent over a week soaking in the ambient sounds of the Baltic Sea and attempting to replicate them in his studio that overlooked the water. The result, 2018’s fully instrumental Oceanic, won rave reviews for its aquatic feelings as well as its ability to combine natural ambience with synthesizers and classical harmonies. His name quickly became mentioned alongside such fellow modern classical composers as Nils Frahm and Max Richter. His follow-up album, 2020’s Svalbard was an attempt to capture the feel of the Arctic, and was informed by Paschburg’s concern about climate change. It also earned him strong reviews for his abilities to create what are often referred to as cinematic audio landscapes.
