THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ARTIST MIMMI RELEASES NEW MUSIC

Mimmi, the artist, is releasing her new single, "Nothing". The song is on her forthcoming second album in a trilogy of albums, “Shadow Works”. The first album was the critically acclaimed success "Semper Eadem".

MIMMI says:
“Nothing” enters the realm between dream and reality, and is my story about living in the space between reality and my dreams; a domain sounded with experimental and unique art pop.

During chaotic and lonely days during the pandemic, I found peace of mind and fell in love with Leonard Cohen's voice and his universe. He consequently became a great inspiration when I wrote “Nothing", a calm and balanced vocal story based on hypnotic and repetitive music.


Mimmi finds ways herself; nevertheless, people have compared her to greats like Kate Bush, Beth Gibbons in Portishead and Tori Amos. Mimmi creates and performs music that landed TONO's prestigious Edvard Prize nomination for exceptionally high artistic quality in 2021.

"Impressive is Mimmi's voice, roomy, clear and changeable, never sweet."

TITANIC: RELEASE SEPTEMBER 30, 2022

The album "Titanic" is the next step in her art pop musical journey of formation, where Mimmi steers through artistic stories, expressions and emotional explorations to find and improve higher understanding.

It commenced with Renaissance pop in Queen Elisabeth I's time colour, where Mimmi transformed, and she confronted her demons.

“…on Semper Eadem she actually moves further between
contemporary pop and nostalgic baroque atmosphere, between
heated rhythm and cool distance.” (Musikblog)

The first album received rave reviews. "Semper Eadem" landed a perfect review score in the newspaper Dagsavisen, which described it as a performance that
“… knocks you out of your seat".

Europe also notices Mimmi:
"Her voice with its soulful timbre, with which she congenially exploits
the emotional depth of her poetic texts, is always present, room-filling
and highly multifaceted.” (CD-aktuell)

The album received a nomination for The Spellemann Award 2020.

MIMMI releases "Mask"  

"Mask" is the 4th song MIMMI drops from her new album Titanic coming september 30th 2022. 

"Mask" is a very close and personal song where MIMMI write and sings about her about her relationship to the African culture and her own father. 

"Mask" is produced by MIMMI & Vegard Kleftås Sleipnes.  

Here is MIMMIs own words about the song: 

When I was writing this song, I wanted it to sound like there was one voice together with lots of voices around it, as if there was an elevated version of myself which dared to speak about something that was a little difficult to talk about. I imagined the main vocal to be like a wandering cloud set within a really poppy yet simple arrangement. I wanted it to be kind of reminiscent of ghost. The main vocal being almost something like a whisper, yet still intense, that comes forward with a message that is equally about my relationship to my father and my relationship to my own culture, which I know all too little about. 

I wanted to write simple and direct lyrics and then insert them into a rather dreamlike backdrop. Many of my other songs bear the mark of being in a dreamlike atmosphere. 

In this song there is one very clear moment. It is not a confrontation as much as it is an open love letter from myself to both my father and African culture. But it is not only that; it is a correspondence to all culture that is inside of myself – the core and the roots of it.

MIMMI releases the crossovertrack between “Semper Eadem” and her brand new album“Titanic” coming 30th of September. 
  
MIMMI is finally ready to show you her song “Where Have You Been” 

“Where have you been” is the first track MIMMI wrote after the release of her Norwegian grammy nominated 2020 album “Semper Eadem”. 

In "Semper Eadem", which commences the trilogy with renaissance pop in Queen Elisabeth I's time colour, where MIMMI transformed and confronted her demons. 
In her new album "Titanic" MIMMI faces the same problems, though, with totally new perceptions. She needs to understand and deal with them again. Be it identity and stereotype, where she belongs or her search for love.

“Where Have You Been” is the song that started the whole idea for the coming “Titanic” album. “Where Have You Been” is an untraditional song, it`s more of a long monolog where MIMMI reflect upon things, sounding like a Shakespearian choir that speaks to her audience about their thoughts, ideas and questions. 

The song’s arrangement is full of surprises, just like a trip. MIMMI wanted it to go through something that evokes the primitive sides in ourselves. 

The song is about an eternal journey and about being ready to start all over again.

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN

Mimmi takes you deep into the sea while she researches her own roots and relations in this 8 minute long wonderful composition.

What kind of person am I? 

The song deals with the themes of relations and roots as well as the form life has taken. The song reflects upon questions related to a person’s inner life, such as what I have needed in this regard and what I have discovered that I need.  

The Journey in Everybody Else will take you to different worlds and landscapes: a landscape for something that feels like home, one for which I wished felt like home, one for where familiar and unfamiliar beings live, one for meditation, culture, a nightmare and one for reflection. 
Everything is in the music and the lyrics. And the quest is eternal.
