Malibu is a French electronic composer whose work sails between ambient and ethereal music.
Forever inspired by soft reverbed vocals, melodious chord progressions, Malibu’s music is a sea of synthetic strings, cello and choirs. It is an immersive euphoric and nostalgic journey, a kind of sad fantasy where elegance and delicacy lie.
‘One Life’ is Malibu’s first record and most matured work, released in November 2019 on both Joyful Noise Recordings and UNO NYC.
The live experience of the record first premiered for Deep Minimalism 2.0 at Southbank Centre, London in cooporation with Oliver Coates and London Contemporary Orchestra (16 cellos). The performance is ready to tour now as a duo, Malibu & cellist, through selected venues and festivals.
‘It might just be, as it was for Barwick, the most beautiful music you’ve ever heard. The gorgeousness of it is almost overwhelming’ - Pitchfork
‘On the startling title track, cellist Oliver Coates meets Malibu’s floating drones with heart-wrenching cinematic strings and the result is as magical and mysterious as any fairytale. This one’s for the crybabies.’ - FACT
‘In just five tracks and 28 minutes, Malibu has delivered the best ambient record of 2019.’ - Discogs
One Life was one of the best albums of 2019 according to Pitchfork, FACT, Discogs & Gorilla vs Bear.
