We are afraid of being alone. We are afraid of not making money, so we do the same routines every day. We are risk adverse, but when you dare to do something else, it is often the best decision in life.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Kaada also commented on it:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cI met photographer Daniel Voldheim and Christian Holm-Glad by chance some 15+ yrs ago. Little did I know then that this encounter would result in the great collaboration we have today. It is a privilege to work with someone who manages to translate my musical world into images and\u00a0stories so seamlessly.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Watch the short film for &#8216;Farewell&#8217; below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/c1e-hy1_RYE\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Norwegian composer, multi-instrumentalist and producer Kaada has unveiled a beautiful short film to accompany the cinematic and striking &#8216;Farewell&#8217;, lifted from his utterly sublime album Closing Statements, which was one of our 15 Album Picks of 2018.
