Artifact marks a new chapter in Parov Stelar’s creative career. For the album, the Austrian drew inspiration from fragments of memory, parallel worlds, and the fleeting nature of the moment.
Despite its conceptual breadth, Artifact is a very personal work. It’s not just about the songs, but also about what lies behind them - about attitude and honesty, perhaps even a certain risk, because such grandeur takes courage. The artist himself says: “I never made music to look cool. I was never afraid of the big melody, never afraid of my feelings. I think there’s nothing more beautiful than being able to surprise yourself.” When you listen to Artifact, you realize: These are not just empty words. They shape the album and give it its poise.
