Ben Böhmer blossoms in Bloom, delivering a masterful fusion of emotion and artistic evolution in his third studio album that’s landed on Ninja Tune.
Ben Böhmer has solidified himself as the master of curating deeply emotive masterpieces. Since his debut album Breathing, the Berlin-based beatsmith has continued releasing music that hones in on the multi-layered complexities of composition and electronica with grace and grandiose. His sophomore album, Begin Again, took his craft to new heights with dreamy layers of moving lyricism and atmospheric synths that encapsulated my heart with every track.
Now, Ben Böhmer has captured the electronic music world’s attention once again with his third album, Bloom. Released through Ninja Tune, this 11-track masterpiece showcases his unique ability to blend deeply emotive compositions with his signature melancholic electronica. While his previous releases have earned him global recognition, this album pushes his artistic boundaries further, creating a fresh space where improvisation and emotional depth are intertwined.
For fans of the melodic electronic sound, Bloom feels like a natural continuation of Ben Böhmer’s journey but with an added layer of confidence and creative freedom. Despite his massive success, this album marks a turning point. Here, Böhmer’s early roots as a classically trained pianist shine as he explores new styles, tempos, and sounds. Collaborating with notable artists like Lykke Li, Oh Wonder, Erin LeCount, Enfant Sauvage (The Blaze), and more. Bloom is so much more than just an album—it’s a statement about artistic reinvention.
From the opening track, “Martin,” Ben Böhmer sets a hauntingly beautiful tone with delicate piano melodies that serve as the foundation for the album’s lush soundscapes. Whether it’s the emotional pull of Enfant Sauvage’s vocals on “Evermore” or the driving dancefloor rhythms of “Rust,” each song offers a unique blend of introspection and energy. Ben Böhmer’s ability to fuse melodic elements with more grounded, rhythmic beats sets Bloom apart, allowing it to stand out among the ever-growing electronic music scene.
A highlight of the LP, “The Sun,” features Oh Wonder’s Josephine Vander West and perfectly encapsulates the album’s theme of personal rebirth and transformation. The track’s heartfelt lyrics of resilience and enlightenment mirror the album’s overarching narrative, showcasing Ben Böhmer’s evolution as a producer and composer willing to dive into more complex, introspective themes.
