A Synth Pop Monk — Janosch Moldau Explores Nature and Tranquility in His Video for “Where I Believe”

Janosch Moldau has made a lasting mark on the electronic dance scene with his dreamy, introspective synth-pop style. This unique artist hails from the Vaterland of electronic music, Germany, and has built a loyal fan base over the years thanks to his unique mix of melancholy, which resonates through addictive hooks and melodies. His sound draws comparisons to iconic groups like Depeche Mode, The Cure, and Red Flag, but such comparison can’t quite capture the particular atmosphere woven from his distinctive sound drawn from the aether of a rich creative mindscape.

His latest single, the lovely Where I Believe, acts as a heartfelt plea for tranquility and solace under the watchful eye of a higher power, paired with a cinema verité-style DIY video. Glitchy, raw, and sincere, the video illustrates this profound spiritual hymn amidst global turmoil and unrest. It underscores our collective need for spaces of comfort and joy – be they Franciscan frolics in gardens of contemplation with a hot cup of tea in hand, or a trip through the innermost workings of the subconscious. It is all connected.

‘If I continue like this, I will become a synthpop monk,” he quips.

Watch the video for “Where I Believe” below:

Within the last 15 years, the musician has published five studio albums, two remix albums, many singles, and remix EPs and has toured throughout Europe, the US, and in Russia with numerous stars of the electronic-pop scene. His third album, ‘Lovestar,’ expanded his committed fan base. The music clip with the same name as the album was presented exclusively on the music channel MTV/VIVA.

Where I Believe is taken from Janosch Moldau’s new EP, Where I Believe, slated for release via The Orchard/New York. The album was recorded in the idyllic setting of Lake Lugano in Italy, a place where the musician has made his creative sanctuary.
