Journey to Tranquil Horizons: The Serene Landscapes of 'A Path to Open Air II

Introducing 'A Path to Open Air II,' the evolution of Tobias Wilden’s 2013 album, 'A Path to Open Air.' This latest offering continues the introspective journey initiated by its predecessor, delving even deeper into Wilden's perception of nature and music. Through meticulously crafted multitrack compositions, Wilden conveys a profound connection to the environment, capturing the yearning for tranquility found in remote locales and the ambiance far removed from urban confines through atmospheric acoustic soundscapes.

Inspired by nature and landscapes, Wilden masterfully weaves together complex ideas and emotions. His pastoral ambient instrumentals gently unfold, employing acoustic/classical elements, from guitar, cello, double-bass, to even the Japanese traditional instrument Sanshin to create impressionistic musical sketches. Wilden seamlessly integrates orchestral and electronic elements to enrich his melodic storytelling. Wilden's style effortlessly oscillates between melodic allure and dissonant intrigue, challenging categorization. His intricate technicality is balanced by a delicate demeanor, engaging listeners with contemplation and depth.

From tracks like “Beneath the Stones” to “Encounters,” Wilden probes deep into hazy nostalgia with each subsequent piece. Through evocative playing, he paints aural landscapes existing between seasons and shifting moods, from the elegiac tones of “Spring Nomad” to the melancholia of “Tidelands.” Wilden's craftsmanship emerges prominently in every composition as he pushes the boundaries of acoustic guitar music, experimenting with layers of guitar to achieve a full sound without relying on alternate tunings—a notable departure from the album’s predecessor.

As the album unfolds, "A Path to Open Air II" emerges not merely as a collection of songs. Through Wilden’s use of tone and texture, he invites listeners to explore the quiet, resonating moods that lie beneath the surface of sound.

"A Path to Open Air II" will be available on LP, CD, and digital formats, set to release on May 31, 2024, via KITCHEN. LABEL. Gen Tanabe mastered this record at Studio Camel House in Japan.

Lyrics

un día bien
un puma negro
el calor va desgarrando el suelo
a ciento cincuenta
van rebasando el ritmo del deseo

a su lado va
un prometeo
en un pacto fino en méxico
y lo que te encuentras...
en pedacitos todo el conspirar

cuarto seis
ojos rolando van
alterando el rato (our own rapture)
suerte vil
adoración total (oh!)
cosa rara hoy

después del fin
respiro urgente 
una luz blanca por todo el desierto (pregunta)
¿tienes fuego? (gotta light?)
le dice desgarrando su pensar

cuarto mil
ojos de plata y sal (your silver, silver eyes)
alterando el tacto
suerte vil
evaporándose
cosa rara hoy

I AM WHO I AM is about me finding myself and growing spiritually. I found real love and a special connection, and even though I had to go through a tough time of separation, it helped me get back to my true self. This album is full of new hopes, good vibes, and the feeling of a fresh start. It also shows how I've gotten closer to God, giving thanks for everything that is peaceful and lasting.

The core inspiration for this album struck in a single evening back in 2023. After a year and a half of dedicated work, it's finally ready for release. The path has been challenging, but the culmination of this journey fills me with immense pride.

Beyond its innovative sound design, I AM WHO I AM represents a powerful letting go of the past. It stands as my declaration as an artist who has truly reclaimed her self-identity.

Written, performed, and produced by Nadja Sky in Tbilisi, Kaş, and Sarajevo.
Recorded between December 2023 and May 2025. Released June 18, 2025.
