Ambia's New Release 'For a While' Reworked by August Petrén: A Cinematic Journey into Ethereal Sounds

Ambia is a Swedish band consisting of three talented musicians: Ingmar Pettersson Olsén, Robert Nilsson, and August Petrén. Ingmar and Robert, both hailing from Sala, Sweden, had been involved in various musical projects before coming together to form Ambia in 2020. Their shared passion for music led them to collaborate and create beautiful compositions.


In 2021, Ingmar crossed paths with August Petrén while studying music production. August, a remixer and pianist, brought a unique perspective to the group. With his addition, Ambia's sound became more diverse and captivating.


The band draws inspiration from the post-rock and ambient genres, which is evident in their music. Their compositions are characterized by ethereal and atmospheric sounds, creating an immersive experience for listeners.



The single/EP/album was recorded in the summer of 2022 and released as part of Ambia's debut EP, titled "Sometime." The original song, "For a While," served as the foundation for the rework created by August Petrén in 2023. The aim of the rework was to enhance the cinematic elements of the original composition. August's piano-based version added a new dimension to the song, further enriching its already wide and lush soundscape.


The reworked version of "For a While" is a mesmerizing piece, with its captivating melodies and evocative atmosphere make it a standout track, showcasing Ambia's talent and their ability to create music that resonates deeply with listeners.


With their unique blend of post-rock and ambient influences, Ambia is poised to make a significant impact in the music industry. Their debut EP "Sometime" and the reworked version of "For a While" are just the beginning of what promises to be a promising musical journey for the band.
