"I felt completely overwhelmed when I learned about the biological annihilation of wildlife in recent decades and how we’re collectively decimating the only assemblage of life that we know of in the universe. That feeling started this EP. But instead of focussing on that, I wanted to celebrate these extinct animals by creating this little memorial, where each track is dedicated to one of them." — Felix Rösch

The EP ‘Mya’ (out October 9 on SilentGreen Records) follows 2018’s ‘Orchester Verfremdung’ and 2019’s ‘str:orchestra,’ which was featured in Spotify’s ‘Not Quite Classical’ playlist and used in a global Burberry ad campaign. ‘Mya’ combines shape-shifting analog synthesizers, ethereal piano textures, and a remote-recorded chamber orchestra. It is meant to be a memorial for countless species that have gone extinct.
