Freedom For All

After the successful debut album “By Train Through Countries” (2019) and numerous extended single releases, Projekt Ich from Rosenheim / Bavaria (Germany) is going to release their second studio album “Freedom For All” via the German indie label Echozone. Project manager Ulf Müller refined the concept of the debut album in order to create even more individual compositions with the help of a variety of international vocalists by having each singer write their own lyrics and compose their own vocal line to accomplish a highly artistical identity. On top of that, the songs are mainly presented in the vocalists' native language (English, French, Spanish, Swedish, Russian, Brunner German (Austrian idiom) and German) or bilingually (native tongue and English as global language) which supports the unlimited, international and highly individual character of the album. “Freedom For All” features fifteen varied songs in total which range from alternative pop and electronic to 80s and retro styles. The same-titled opener is keenly performed by five vocalists (Catrine Christensen / SoftWave (DK), Marcus Mokuso / Rename – Mindmodvl (DE), Michael Draw / Otto Dix (RU), Oleg Degtiarev / Lilith My Mother (CZ), René & Susan Mußbach / Analogue-X (DE)) from the debut album to emphasise the statement MUSIC CONNECTS PEOPLE. Five of the fifteen songs are special edit versions with a very unique sound due to Georg Kallenbach's superb saxophone playing. Two songs are performed by Thierry Noritop (FR) who displays his excellent guitar play. Both songs “You Can It” and “The Time Is Running” are presented by Ulf Müller himself and conclude the album in an impressive way. Further vocalists are: Martin Johansson / Electric City Cowboys (SE), David B Roundsley / Munich Syndrome (US), Magdalena Herfurtner / Madil Hardis (DE), Aidan Casserly / Sebastian And The Dream (IR), Dasha Larks / Pulse Lab ( FI), Thierry Noritop / Stereo In Solo (FR), Marcelo Andrea / Expreso Maniquí (AR), Anna / ELL WATERS (DE), Ralf Lorenz / Faltenhall (DE), Richard Pustina (AT) and Ade Stocker (UK). The album songs deal with global and social topics, but also tell private and fictional stories about love, yearning, dreams, devastation, rage, depression, despair, greed right up to self-abandonment. Thirteen of the fifteen songs have been released beforehand in form of extended singles featuring remixes of international artists as well as video clips or lyric videos in order to thank and put a spotlight on every vocalist and remixer who contributed to the making of this album. In addition to a total running time of 64 minutes, the album comes with an incredible digital single catalog consisting of 221 tracks running up to a total running time of more than 20 hours.
