From deep within the musical heart of London emerges PAAB, a singer-songwriter whose artistry is characterized by depth, feeling, and total freedom. Alchemic Love EP that PAAB just released is a pivotal chapter for him and the journey of Café De Anatolia, the critically-acclaimed label known for organic house and electronic-based experiences. It establishes PAAB as the first Polish singer-songwriter to work with Café De Anatolia, a distinction of personal pride and significance within the Polish musical community.
Alchemic Love is not just songs but a doctrine of metamorphoses and durability, based on PAAB's own journey. Briefly, PAAB has planted club-influenced beats to story-intended lyrics. On this EP, PAAB nods to artistic giants like Depeche Mode and captures the duality of darkness and light traveling in various sound/dance paths. In each composition, PAAB pushes self-empowerment instruments forward through beats, songs to dance and grow to. The club-inspired work with DJs Aga Boryn and Kate Moss brings a clubbed-out air, yet PAAB retains the soul behind the lyrics.
Recorded in London, the EP also officially debuted as part of a live vocal DJ set in which PAAB performed with Aga Boryn. The show illuminated the depth of the songs, highlighting the fluidity of going from a more meditative listening experience to a full-blown dance-floor jam. Lines like “When all is dark on the horizon, all that you can do is keep rising” capture the larger message of the project: each of us is growing through our struggles, becoming stronger through reflection.
Having already performed in Miami, London, Poland, and Switzerland, Alchemic Love is rapidly crossing borders. For PAAB, this release represents a sense of personal accomplishment and a commitment to the power of authentic storytelling and the depth of exploration possible with sound in engaging a worldwide audience. With Alchemic Love, PAAB is not just making music but is making anthems for how we ascend in an uncertain world.
