“NAIVE – ALBUM” is a musical project that envisages the creation of a new music album by Daniela Belcheva – a freelance artist. The album will contain all original music, created by the singer and her creative team. After two decades out of the country, from 2020 Daniela has been actively working in the country, having produced two short-play albums and several solo concerts. Her music features a distinctive contemporary sound at the intersection of pop, jazz, blues and European movements.
The titles that will be included in “NAIVE” will be based on music and lyrics by Daniela Belcheva, and the sound concept and audio production workflow will be under the musical direction of Dimitar Semov – an instrumentalist with many years of experience in stage and recording activities, also a freelance artist. It is planned that the album will include nine completely original titles, which will be professionally recorded, mixed and mastered in a professional studio in the city of Sofia.
The main musical line-up includes:
Daniela Belcheva – vocals
Milen Kukosharov – piano
Mikhail Ivanov – double bass
Dimitar Semov – drums
Two of the songs will be accompanied by a special arrangement for combo and а guest instrumentalist. The author of these arrangements will be Milen Kukosharov – an established Bulgarian pianist, composer and arranger. Sound recording and mastering will be done by Konstantin Katsarsky – a musician, tone operator and sound designer with many years of practice and experience in audio processing.
The working titles of the planned nine songs are:
1. The good is still more
2. Baby Rainbow
3. Let Magic Live On
4. Silver Lining
5. Pocket Full of Love
6. Broken Surface
7. Twin Heart
8. L.U.L.M.
9. Green and gold
The project is funded by the National Culture Fund of the Republic of Bulgaria.
The album is now available on YouTube and Spotify.
