MAARJA NUUT x RUUM / OM Library™

MAARJA NUUT (born 1986) is an Estonian singer and violinist. After first studying classical music, she turned to folk, adopting the village style of traditional Estonian songs. She debuted as a solo artist in 2013, winning the Artists Prize at the Tallinn Music Week. In 2016, she began to collaborate with Hendrik Kaljujärv aka RUUM, who creates his own abstract electronic sounds. Together they have formed a successful duo, releasing recordings and performing at international festivals & more»

MAARJA NUUT x RUUM synthesise the soul of things; connecting the deep-rooted, intuitive worldview of days past with seemingly limitless technological possibilities of the present and future.

Playing with the murky zone between light and shadow, Maarja’s vocal experimentation, violin and looper complement Ruum’s abstract electronic soundscapes and envelop the listener. 

The duo’s first album “Muunduja” (Shifter) was released in October of 2018, on the UK’s 130701 label. 

The Quietus called their 2018 collaboration “one of the year’s most beautiful journeys through inner and outer space”.

MAARJA NUUT is a singer, violinist, electronic artist, and composer whose work spans a vast range of rich musical worlds. Fuelled by her instincts and curiosity, such exploration comes from an inner need, and a desire to probe each world’s musical language, techniques, and expressional qualities – elements she swirls into her own, mesmerising art...

MAARJA NUUT x RUUM - KUUD kKUULAMA

(Sultan + Shepard remix) 

Kus me lähme vastu ööda, kaske, kaske,

Vastu ööda, vastu päeva, kaske, kaske,

Vastu pilgesta pimedat, kaske, kaske, kaske.

Lähme kuuda kuulamaie, kaske, kaske,

Päevada valatamaie, kaske, kaske,

Ehada imestamaie, kaske, kaske, kaske.

Kas on kuulla kuube seljas, kaske, kaske,

Või on päeval pärga peassa, kaske, kaske,

Ehal hõbehelme'eida, kaske, kaske, kaske.

Ei olu kuulla kuube seljas, kaske, kaske,

Päeval aga pärga peassa, kaske, kaske,

Ehal hõbehelme'eida, kaske, kaske, kaske.

Kuu see mängib kudrustega, kaske, kaske,

Päev aga mängib pärlestega, kaske, kaske,

Eha hõbehelmestega, kaske, kaske, kaske.
