“Bold avant-pop music that twists and turns of its own volition, the energising creativity that drives ‘Skin’ is simply overwhelming.” – CLASH Magazine.
Rising avant-pop singer-songwriter MARIA Die RUHE released her incredible single, ‘Skin’ on the 24th of February via Reduced To The Root. The single follows the release of the artist’s recent single, ‘Art Is The Only Real Translation Of Living For Me’, and we just HAD to share it with you all. The producer has performed on several different stages across Europe, including Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Switzerland, and Turkey, each time bringing new energy to her set. Although the songstress has only been releasing music for a few years, she’s already collected just under 6.5 million plays on Spotify alone, with the number rising by the day. ‘Skin’ has already been supported by CLASH Magazine.
The singer is from Thuringia, Germany previously lived in both Berlin, San Francisco, as well as London and is now based in Leipzig, Germany once more. While creating her unique sound, MARIA Die RUHE loses herself in different sonic realms, never minding the genre and recognising the works of Frank Wiedemann, Stimming, Dominik Eulberg, Elder Island, Sylvan Esso, James Blake, SOHN and The Knife to name a few. Her own sound calls to mind the unusual sounds of Röyksopp, Lykke Li and MØ.
