TOUCHING TOO LOUD (single #1) from long awaited Spark In The Machine LP out 1st December 2025
on Bandcamp: https://olaszmidt.bandcamp.com/album/spark-in-the-machine-2

Press Release: 

Ola Szmidt’s music breathes in the rhythm of wounds.
Those visible, and those hidden beneath the skin.

She lets them speak through her in their own language.

It is the voice of women whose tenderness has been silenced for years, pushed into the shadows. Now, in subtle whispers, in trembling resonance, it slowly finds its way to the surface.

Each phrase is like a breath of freedom, a fragile yet courageous touch of the truth. Though still “too loud” for a world accustomed to silence.

This album is an intimate testimony of healing.

A process in which pain does not vanish, but transforms into strength.

In the space between silence and voice, between fragility and courage, Ola captures something essential: the path of reclaiming oneself.

It is music for all those who know that scars are not an end.
They are like a memory. They make us more sensitive and stronger same time. They are like a map leading towards freedom.

Touching Too Loud is a journey through the landscape of body and soul that have learned to live with scars.

They told us to be quiet.
To fold our feelings into silence.
To carry pain like a secret,
and let fear stitch itself into our skin.

But silence is not the end.
Beneath the weight of what was done to us,
our voices never disappeared

TOUCHING TOO LOUD is the sound of that waiting ending.
It is the trembling breath of women rising from shadows,
the fragile resonance of truths once too dangerous to be spoken.
Each musical line is a scar turned into a voice. And from those multiple lines, a song is formed.

This is not music for forgetting what happened.
It is music for remembering.
This is music about growing up, becoming stronger,
For feeling the wound and the healing at once,
for reclaiming the body, the tenderness, the right to be heard.

Here, our voices are no longer small.
They are subtle, yes, but unstoppable.
They are soft, but unbroken.
They are free.

TOUCHING TOO LOUD

I used to wait for your call
Heart on the line, but you were never there
You played so sweet, and I'd fall
Now I see things much clearer where
If I gave you rhythm, you gave you rhymes
You gave me silence every time
Now I’m dancing to a different tune
And it don’t sound anything like you

Now you come around here
Like I got nothing better to do
Thinking I'll be there
But I don't dream about you
Keep playing silly games
But baby I ain't your little toy
Going down in flames
Guess I don't love you boy

You had your chance, you let it slip
Took my soul for a one way trip
Now I’m glowing in my own sunrise
No more tears gonna fall from these eyes
I gave you verses, gave you grace
You gave me shadows I had to face
Now I’m singing in a brighter room
And it don’t echo back to you

Now you come around here
Like I got nothing better to do
Thinking I'll be there
But I don't dream about you
Keep playing silly games
But baby I ain't your little toy
Going down in flames
Guess I don't love you boy

You were a lesson, not a home
A melody I had to outgrow
Now I’m harmonizing with my truth
And baby, it’s got nothing to do with you

Now you come around here
Like I got nothing better to do
Thinking I'll be there
But I don't dream about you
Keep playing silly games
But baby I ain't your little toy
Going down in flames
Guess I don't love you boy

Don't Love You Boy
