About the album
‘Sample The Sky’ responds to nature’s patterns through organic electronic productions, embodied lyrics, wind inspired saxophone, singing and synthesis all woven into left-field pop songs.
On it, Laura has departed from her more isolated bedroom-produced work (critically acclaimed EPs ‘Playground’ and ‘Lonely City’ released in 2017 and 2019 respectively), by getting others in the South London creative community involved her process. Ranging from guest musicians and field recordists to painters, florists, dancers and tapestry makers.
Though some songs had been years in the making, the album was kick-started with a year-long collaboration with composer and producer William Arcane, whose “synth wizardry” caught Laura’s ears.
BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music and Worldwide FM along with publications like Wonderland Magazine, Clash Magazine, Varsity, NME, The Quietus, Red Bull Music and The Guardian have championed Misch’s work. She has also played at top-notch venues and festivals including Royal Albert Hall, Roundhouse, Berghain, Rockwood Music Hall, All Points East, Eurosonic, SXSW and We Out Here.
‘Laura Misch brings such sentimentality to her music and imbues it with modern electronic flourishes’.
PopMatters
‘Absolutely gorgeous – all pensive rhythms and intelligently layered vocals’.
Clash Magazine
‘…here she’s conjured up a suite of songs that feel more expansive while still retaining that sense of intimacy that made her so special.’
