Millhope Releases “Searching”
“S E A R C H I N G” is the perfect companion for a day at the beach, or your outdoor activities, for concentration or for your idle moments. Millhope‘s instrumental music represents daydreaming, curiosity and hope. The ingredients: spherical guitar lines, catchy analog synth melodies and field recording samples, driven by driving drums.
Millhope is Cologne-based producer and musician Thomas Mühlhoff. In the last two decades he has worked with artists such as Susanne Dobrusski (nominated for the Echo® with her band Dob Russkin), Jenny Thiele, Kai Otten, Geysir, and many others. After graduating in jazz and pop music, his current focus lies on composing producing music in the chillwave/downtempo/ambient genre.
The 80s-inspired sound, with nods to classic TV soundtracks like Knight Rider and Stranger Things, is given a unique twist through the use of modern production techniques and a slower tempo.
Speaking about the project, millhope says, “I wanted to create music that captured the eerie vibe of the pandemic but also offered a sense of hope and optimism. This album is my way of processing the strange times we‘re living in, and I hope it resonates with people who are going through similar experiences.” With its masterful blend of styles and emotions, millhope‘s debut album is sure to make an impact on the electronic music scene and beyond.
