Ola Bird Releases 'Berlin (no oxygen to breathe)' from New EP 'Places'

Berlin-based Polish artist Ola Bird has unveiled a new single, 'Berlin (no oxygen to breathe),' which serves as the lead track from her mini EP 'Places.' This EP consists of three songs, each inspired by different cities and delving into themes of love, longing, and self-reflection. 'Berlin' reflects the complex emotions of engaging with the city’s social landscape, where one may feel both connected and isolated. The track features a slow rhythm and gritty guitar sounds that evoke a sense of nostalgia, complemented by Bird's soothing vocals that cut through the surrounding melancholy. Produced by Drew Mantia, recognized for his collaborations with Chance The Rapper and boasting over 60 million streams, the song merges raw emotion with polished production, creating a cinematic experience that captures the city's blend of hope and detachment. Bird's influences span indie pop, alternative pop, indie rock, and R&B, resulting in a genre-defying sound. Ultimately, the song serves as a poignant reminder of the bittersweet pursuit of dreams in a city that both enchants and distances.
