The Ediacaran

Alt-R&B | Alternative Hip-Hop | Indie

About

The collaborative project The Ediacaran by singer and producer Bastido takes an innovative approach, free from traditional band structures. The project's name is a reference to the Ediacaran period, characterized by a coexistence of life forms without competition or conflict. The music is created through the collaboration of musicians who contribute their parts independently, often without direct interaction, thereby merging R&B, Hip-Hop, Folk, and Jazz in an unconventional way. This approach allows The Ediacaran to create a sound that is both experimental and accessible.

Screens

with Georgia

As the the first release by the collaborative project The Ediacaran, the song Screens reflects on the fleeting, often fragmented moments that define a world shaped by smartphones and social media. On a jazzy Alt-R&B rhythm, it captures the tension between the desire for connection and the weight of constant digital presence, offering a moment of escape from the overwhelming digital noise.

On Screens, The Ediacaran consists of
Bastian Kladny (Vocals, Lyrics, Production)
Georgia Lock (Vocals, Lyrics)
Jacob Nellessen (Guitars)
Gergo Bille (Trumpet, Flugelhorn)
Simbiat Ebhohon (Bass)

Strawberries

May 23, 2025

Strawberries is a love letter to the values of freedom and democracy that have long been taken for granted in a united Europe and suddenly seem increasingly fragile. Lyrically moving between dream and reality, the second single from the collaborative project The Ediacaran tells of the subjective perception of what individual freedom feels like - and of the quiet uncertainty of a Europe in transition.

On Strawberries, The Ediacaran consists of
Bastian Kladny (Vocals, Lyrics, Production)
Jacob Nellessen (Guitars)
Simbiat Ebhohon (Bass)
Sebastian Lindecke (Drums)
