Years before “Wish” took shape, its vocals belonged to other musical ideas. GARBASCH returned to those recordings and composed new music around them, giving performances from an earlier period a different setting. Released on August 1, 2026, the single grew out of that willingness to reconsider what an existing recording could become.
Based in Roskilde, Denmark, GARBASCH works from his home studio, where he handles the project’s composition, production, performances, vocals, mixing, and mastering. His background spans 30 years in music, and the project remains a solo undertaking. The artist revisiting those earlier recordings is also the musician responsible for deciding where they go next.
“I produce, compose, play and sing everything myself,” he says, describing GARBASCH as a “one man band.” That arrangement gives him the freedom to move between songwriting and production as a track develops. On “Wish,” those roles meet in a particularly interesting way: a recorded voice becomes the starting point for a new composition.
His own description of his sound brings together uplifting pop, easy listening, and drum and bass influences. It is a combination that leaves room for both relaxation and movement, with songwriting connecting those different impulses. Positivity is central to how he talks about the music, alongside his enjoyment of the work involved in making it.
The origins of “Wish” add another dimension to that approach. Reusing a vocal means working with a performance that already has its own phrasing and timing. Building a different musical setting around it can change how those qualities register. In that sense, the track offers an example of how an artist can keep exploring an idea long after its first recording.
GARBASCH produced the track in Logic Pro and says no AI was used. His account emphasizes his direct involvement as a composer, player, singer, and producer. Although the recording draws on material from years earlier, the work of shaping it into “Wish” belongs to his continuing practice as an independent musician.
“I love the artist journey through the art of music,” he says. After three decades, that enthusiasm remains part of how he defines the project. “Wish” gives it a concrete expression: going back to a previous performance, hearing another possibility, and doing the work to develop it.
For those discovering him now, “Wish” offers a useful introduction to both his musical interests and his way of working. A song’s first form, in his hands, can leave room for another.
“Wish” is available to explore on YouTube, while GARBASCH’s music can also be found on Spotify, Tidal, Apple Music, and other major streaming platforms.
