Marcus Albinsson is back with his song of freedom a touching folk and gospel hymn with a soft but strong voice on inner freedom, humble and trust. The song is also based on the acoustic instruments and spiritual sincerity and has a personal and timeless warmth.
The song, Song of Freedom, is not dotted with much in the way of overdubbing and studio gloss, as is the case with many contemporary gospel productions. The track was influenced by musicians collaborating in the same room where they could share a performance and allow real-time interaction and mutual feeling to lead the performance. This live style lets the song breathe a life into it, establishing a human experience that is authentic and touching.
The song has already had a long performing life on stage as it was being performed live on many tours before finally recorded. Once the musicians were in the studio, it was that common background that added a new dimension and maturity to the song. The outcome is a living record as opposed to a manufactured one.
The single was produced by Otto Wellton and recorded at the Kingside Studio where an intimate tone was captured and the trends avoided, making it more devoted to the ultimate truth.
In Song of Freedom Marcus Albinsson gives his audience more than just music, he provides a meditative providing ground to those who are in need of faith, depth and emotional integrity with a blend of folk and gospel, so beautiful in its simplicity.
