OST of documentary 'Rebuilding Notre-Dame' out on March,10th
Johann Pätzold aka Secret of Elements is a composer, multi-instrumentalist and producer from Rostock in northern Germany. His music is a subtle reflection of sensitive melancholic fantasies and fragile moments of hope which provoke shivers, under the influence of the organ, and never break. Pätzold achieves in offering a focused, magical and powerful atmosphere, which is imbibed with the vital energy of its author. Tracks from his productions were chosen to dress-up Christian Dior’s classy fashion show, famous commercials like for Rolex or Kering, Netflix and HBO series and Computer games.
With InFiné, he released two EPs: ‘Monumentum’ (2017) and ‘Odesea’ (2018), both of which are heavily influenced by the migration crisis in Germany from 2015/2016. His first album "Chronos" for InFiné was released in April 2021 and featured a wide range of emotional, electronic and cinematic textures. 'Rebuilding Notre-Dame' and the images of the reconstruction of the cathedral provide an ideal playground for the composer to apply his melancholic ambient touches, orchestral instrumentation and dreamscape electronics to the image.
