The Running In A Dream album in the artist’s words
“Holding Me Back,” Hoffmann’s single from the upcoming Running In A Dream album, features warm vocals from The Kite String Tangle. They mixed with the interwoven synth melodies that make up Nils’ unique sound.
The Kite String Tangle is a producer, multi-instrumentalist, and singer from Brisbane, Australia. He has been nominated for two Aria awards.
The album’s musical style will range from heartwarming synth leads to thoughtful singing.
I‘m very happy to present this new record to everyone after working on it over the last few months. The album was inspired by my world travels and, of course, my home in Berlin. This is a very personal project to me and is a culmination of so many beautiful experiences I’ve had over the past year. I‘ve spent most of my downtime on tour to finish it, and I can’t wait for you all to hear it at home and at my shows. – Nils Hoffmann
The “Running In A Dream” album features also Vancouver Sleep Clinic (Australian singer-songwriter), Kasbo (Swedish producer), Rae Morris (British singer-songwriter), and Dustin Tebbutt (Australian musician).
The album is full of Nils’s mastery of melodic house production. He evolved and perfectionated his sound-taking experience from big names in the business like RÜFÜS DU SOL, Ólafur Arnalds, and Stephan Bodzin.
