This gorgeous masterpiece “No Words” is the first single from Danish artist Alexander Grandjean’s debut album, ‘Via Motion’ (June 2021). The first few seconds of this song will be enough to have you hooked for a long time. The song has a catchy Latin vibe and Maenad’s voice adds the most perfect touch we could ever ask for. The Spanish guitar is beautiful and the vocal melodies are incredibly catchy. Grandjean’s vocal performance is professional and his lyrics are so original, and the polished production work takes this song to a whole new level. We enjoyed listening to Alexander’s charming singing until the last second. He has a voice that stays with you and this beautiful masterpiece shows how talented he is when it comes to singing and songwriting. We hope you love this tune as much we do!
WHAT THE ARTIST SAYS ABOUT THIS SONG:
Grandjean explains how the song was born: “I was visiting family in Oregon and at the airport, this Spanish guitar caught my ear, so I went to the guy and asked what song he was playing. He said he was just improvising, and I asked him to play it again so I could record it. His name is Jason Okamoto and the recording you hear in the intro of the song is the recording from the airport.”
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Alexander Grandjean is a Danish artist, songwriter, and producer releasing his first solo album “Via Motion” summer 2021. He has produced and written songs for European hiphop/R&B artists such as German soul/reggae singer Nneka, Danish R&B singer Freja Kirk, and rappers Sivas (Denmark) and Yes-R (Holland).
Grandjean’s 2021 album “Via Motion” is an ambitious and artistic cross-genre piece that nods to hiphop producers like James Blake, Frank Ocean and Kanye West as well as indie/folk artists such as Bon Iver. The songs are a mix of melodic pop hooks, heavy bass and distorted guitars, organic textures of live saxophones, trumpets and big choirs, mixed with drum machines and dusty samples.
Grandjean is producing and writing; with a mix of his own and other artists’ vocals, he creates a dreamy, romantic and melancholic vibe. Borders are blurred and genres are mixed – making the whole project both timeless and contemporary.
