‘New Ways’ is the 2019 offering by Canadian multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Leif Vollebekk. Following 2017’s ‘Twin Solitude’ this record is a raw and poignant take on ‘tenderness, violence, sex and rebirth’ (Secret City Publishing Inc.). Evoking feelings of profound melancholy, loneliness and isolation ‘New Ways’ finds a new audience in a world ravaged by a global virus. The album highlights ‘Hot Tears’ and ‘Never Be Back’ are blissful. The former is a powerful piano ballad carried by Vollebekk’s mesmerising vocals and the latter, a rhythmically dense piece featuring a fast spoken word performance by the Canadian national. The mixing on this record is exemplary, with a tight production and excellent tonal balance. Engineers Chris Allen and Chris Shaw really deliver on this project, making for a pleasurable listening experience. All in all, this is what music should be: raw emotion, fantastic production quality, all wrapped up in an emotive musical journey. An excellently precise and tasteful record! We look forward to what Leif Vollebekk has to offer in the future. ©Tom Oscar Adams/Qobuz
