Formula Indie Sessions _ Interview with Malin Schell

What is your earliest memory connected to music?
When I was a small kid we used to listen to Tracy Chapman when travelling in the car. I was very touched by her voice.
How did your passion for creating music begin?
Singing has always been my greatest joy..
What’s the story behind your current music project?
The songs are inspired by nature. I am singing about and for our Mother Earth.
How would you describe your sound to someone who has never heard your music before?
The melodies are gifts from Mother Nature, born in moments of deep inspiration. They were written, sung and recorded with the desire to bring peace, joy and harmony to the world. The sound connects us with our own essence, with the power of nature and with a universal love that flows through us all. This music reminds us how close we are to the earth and how much we remain a part of its wonder. The warm, powerful songs open hearts, invite reflection and offer a moment of peace.
What is one thing you’ve learned that completely changed the way you make music?
When I sing, I merge with the sound and become one with the music. This allows me to reach a state of deep connection and inner peace. It feels, as if the sound of my voice flows through me and I’m like a flute giving these vibrations some shape.
What tools, instruments, or software are essential in your creative process?
Guitar, rattle, shamanic drum, being in silence, meditation.
Which indie artist or song are you loving right now?
Danit
How have your personal experiences influenced your music and artistic vision?
A lot! My musical work is influenced especially by my travels around the world. I listen to the voices of different cultures and traditions, which serve as a source of inspiration for my music and open doors to new worlds of sound.
What emotions or messages do you hope listeners take from your work?
I want to bring light into the world – a light that unfolds in healing sounds and frequencies. My intention is to touch people, offering them moments of peace, harmony, joy and deep connection in which time seems to stand still. I want to inspire people to live a more conscious life and feel a deeper connection to nature.
What’s the most important lesson music has taught you so far?
To be completely present, connected and in the flow.
What is a dream venue or festival you would love to perform at?
Pachamama Festival (CH), Medicine Music Festival (UK)
If you could collaborate with any artist, past or present, who would it be and why?
Ayla Schafer and Danit. My style is similar to theirs and I would love to cooperate with them.
