GLEB KOLYADIN’S NEW ALBUM MOBULA OUT TODAY
NEW VIDEO FOR THE TRACK ‘GAIA’ OUT NOW
Hotel Hobbies – “Every note comes from Kolyadin’s heart and his ability to paint beautiful pictures with his music is undiminished”
Classic Rock DE – “an expansive, maritime-infused record that goes into depth in the truest sense of the word and at the same time radiates vastness and endlessness”
The Progressive Aspect – “full of captivating melodies, lush soundscapes and his trademark refined keyboard skills”
The stunning new album from renowned pianist Gleb Kolyadin, Mobula, is out today. This 14-track release showcases Kolyadin at his virtuosic best, with intricate compositions brought to life by the dynamic percussion of Evan Carson—a prominent figure in the folk scene—whose contributions infuse the album with vibrant energy and intricate rhythmic textures.
To accompany the album release today, Gleb has shared a video of him performing the stand-out track ‘Gaia’. Speaking on his inspiration behind the album’s writing and recording, he shared “This album is a reflection on growth and change over time, a quiet unveiling of a secret gallery of hidden works, requiring patience and self-confidence to bring into the light. The goal wasn’t to create something epic featuring prog-rock stars but to release a sincere and honest work where listeners can find their own narratives. I’d describe it as an immersive soundtrack for the mind. The mobula on the cover art symbolizes this feeling of being adrift while also diving deep into the subconscious.”

Mobula marks Gleb Kolyadin’s first album fully conceived and produced in the UK, following his relocation two years ago under a Global Talent visa. The album, mixed and mastered by Vlad Avy, blends rich folk and ethnic influences with electronic rhythms.
‘his music comes from deep within his soul. What treasure lies there’ –

Adding to the album’s distinct character is the enchanting resonance of a 100-year-old Broadwood grand piano that was used throughout the recording process. Captured by engineers Marcel van Limbeek (Tori Amos) and Gianluca Capacchione (Max Meser), the piano brings a timeless, organic warmth to the compositions, contrasting beautifully with the album’s modern production techniques.
