Hill Myna is a German band whose style is mostly referred to as alternative pop or electronica . The name "Hill Myna" (English " Beo ", "Gracula religiosa"; a species of bird) stands for "freedom, fantasy and dream" according to singer Stefan Hill.
history
The English name of Beos was the inspiration for the name of the band Hill Myna. It's the project around singer and producer Stefan Hill. The recordings for the debut album In Color began in 2011 with the support of many guest musicians who were friends. The album was released on December 10, 2014 on the One Sunny Day Recordings label . Three singles were released in advance: Today , Waves and Sunset and Too Good . Hill Myna produced two songs especially for the online magazine Kultmucke , one of which can be heard on the compilation released on December 5, 2014 - alongside acts such as Joy Wellboy and Brothers of End.
style
For the most part, old analog synthesizers such as the Prophet 08 and devices from Korg are used . These electronically generated sounds are always interwoven with acoustic elements such as drums , orchestral strings , glockenspiel and wind instruments . The result is both disco-esque danceable pieces as well as soft and dreamy songs with unusual sound structures.
