World-renowned producer and electronic musician Magnus Birgersson, better known by his nickname Solar Fields, is back with a new release, once again through Sidereal. What follows is Birgersson’s straightforward, heartfelt statement about Origin #04.
Back in 2010, I released the first album in what would become the Origin series—an unfolding journey rooted in unfinished ideas and half-sketched compositions from across my musical life. Some of these pieces began as simple melodies scribbled down decades ago; others were more developed but left incomplete. From the very beginning, I envisioned this as a four-part series. Now, that story finds its resolution with Origin #04.
So, what is the Origin series? Each track is marked by the year the original idea was born. This could be as minimal as a chord progression or as structured as a partially arranged composition. The purpose has always been to honour the essence of those early sparks while bringing them to life as fully formed pieces. It's a creative dialogue across time—between who I was when the idea first came to me, and with whom I am now as I shape it into its final form.
Reviving these sparks was no small task. It meant digging through outdated software, exporting individual sounds and channels, and often rebuilding tracks from the ground up. It meant working not only with music, but with memory—trying to understand what I had envisioned back then, and where it could go to now. The challenge was always to preserve the raw, emotional truth of each piece, while shaping it with the care and craft I’ve grown into over the years. This series has always been about embracing the unfinished—about revisiting the pieces that once lingered in limbo, and finally giving them the time, space, and care they needed in order to unfold into what they were always meant to become. Throughout this journey, the music has evolved in many forms, yet each track has remained true to the core of its Origin.
Now, with Origin #04, the final chapter arrives. The closing of a loop, the resolution to a creative arc that began many years ago, showing us a more vast and different perspective on time and natural cycles. Each track is a reflection of a moment in history, a glimpse into the past, a celebration of endurance, and an incentive to persevere.
The series might end here, but these sounds—shaped by time, memory, and something quieter still—will continue to move.
