Tamino announces new album Every Dawn’s a Mountain
Tamino’s new album Every Dawn’s a Mountain was primarily written in his new home of New York City, bringing a new beginning for the artist, who was also recently invited to play at the Great Pyramid of Giza; whose songs and stories have attracted the attention of fans including David Byrne, Lana Del Rey and Radiohead’s Colin Greenwood, who he has collaborated with.
Out March 21st, 2025 via Djinn Records/Communion Records, Every Dawn’s a Mountain is fueled by the feeling of fire, and realizing that everything that has been built before and within you is about to burn down perhaps for the best. The record is one about loss, displacement breaking up and letting go of the past, and from those embers of emotional wreckage, Tamino emerges and enters his next chapter. While most of these 10 songs were written in the Manhattan apartment he recently moved to, he also recorded in a New Orleans church, Brussels studio, and sca ttered hotel rooms while on tour with Mitski, who sings with Tamino on “Sanctuary.”
From Tamino:
“Just as fire can erupt with great force, most of these songs seemed to burst their way into existence. Unabashedly and without warning, they demanded my attention and determined the course of my days. They say the faster the flame burns, the harder it is to catch. Similarly, capturing the right feel while recording proved challenging at times. I’ve never really approached music conceptually. Usually, songwriting feels more like carving away into a self revealing sculpture rather than carefully implementing a pre existing blueprint. After recent developments in my life, however, I did feel a tremendous urge to build a metaphysical altar for what had been lost. The end result, though at times eclectic, feels like the most harmonious record I’ve made to date, with all 10 songs strung together by a same sense of honoring and letting go.”
