Exploring the Cosmic Soundscape of Birthh's "MOONLANDED"

Italian singer, songwriter, producer, and explorer, Birthh (Alice Bisi), has taken us on a celestial journey with the release of her highly anticipated third studio album, "MOONLANDED," which gracefully touched down on September 1st, 2023. As we had the privilege of an early listen, one track that instantly captivated us was "Somebody," an acoustic gem where Birthh's ethereal vocals spoke volumes.

"Somebody" weaves a tale of identity exploration, resonating with anyone who has grappled with the haunting feeling of uncertainty and the yearning for accomplishment. What truly sets this song apart is the raw recording at the end, paired with a powerful chorus-like singing, offering an emotional climax that lingers long after the music fades.

"MOONLANDED" is a 10-track odyssey, birthed almost entirely within the confines of Birthh's home studio, the Moonbase, nestled in the vibrant heart of Brooklyn. The album emerges from a profound chapter in Alice's life, a journey marked by life-altering decisions and experiences. Her relocation to Brooklyn in March 2020, coincidentally on the eve of the US borders closing, led to two years of separation from her family, prompting a deep exploration of what it means not just to survive but to truly live.

Birthh's music often transcends the earthly realm, yet it remains deeply rooted in the human experience. "MOONLANDED" invites listeners to embark on a sonic expedition that delves into the intricate relationship between imagination and reality. Each track unfolds a new chapter in the story, a poignant exploration of the complexities of life, and a quest to dream with eyes wide open.

As Birthh herself puts it, "This is my journey into what it feels like to be a sensitive human in their 20s in the 2020s, through all the pressure coming from within and from the world we were left with. Landing is finding a way to stay present and to love the process, it’s about creating space for ourselves and realizing that each of us is the protagonist in our own story."

"MOONLANDED" is not just an album; it's a cosmic experience that transcends time and space, encapsulating the essence of a generation navigating the turbulent waters of the 2020s. Birthh's introspective storytelling and ethereal soundscapes make this album a must-listen for anyone seeking solace, inspiration, and a journey through the human psyche.

With "MOONLANDED," Birthh invites us to explore the universe within ourselves, to dance among the stars, and to discover the magic of being the authors of our own stories. Don't miss out on this celestial sonic voyage.
