His music is a blend of instrumental, post-classical and folk-inspired sounds, influenced by the likes of Beirut, Sigur Rós, Yann Tiersen, classical piano music from the 19th century and French chanson. It is often described as having a magical, fairytale-like vibe and nostalgic feel.
Being a classically trained pianist, the piano and other keyboard instruments such as the celesta are often at the center of his creations. Nonetheless, he is always eager to explore new sounds and instruments such as the trumpet and cornet which he taught himself for his latest EP, Odesa, adding a new color palette to his sound.
His compositions are often melancholic and nostalgic but also joyful and peaceful, offering a reflection of the beauty and struggles of life and taking the listener on a journey to the depths of their soul and the heights of their dreams.
In addition to producing music, Oskar also creates the artwork and music videos for his releases in collaboration with his wife, Angie Siveria. Together they craft a cohesive visual aesthetic that complements the music and adds another layer of meaning to it.

The bells ring empty
The phantom of a thought:
"Isn't it a pity?
That girl for whom you've fought
That same one, had simply
Just turned your hopes to naught"
The violins embrace me,
To my core they cry a song
Begging me to not succumb
Never to withdraw
To them i'll always belong
- Simply had the desire to write this down while listening to this song, i'm not a poet, and this is actually the first time I try something like this. But many thanks to sheepy & oskar for bringing this "urge" out of me, helping me express myself.

Felt inspired to write this after listening to it.
"Dad what are those lights in the sky?"
"The stars? They are our legacy, our past, and our loss, little one."
"I don't understand."
"And I would be afraid if you already did. Long ago those were our homes. Each light you see is a family left behind, an empty home, and a lighthouse of hope."
"Why did we leave?"
"because we did not show the love each one deserved, and when it was too late we decided the only way to keep our homes safe was to leave them forever."
"But doesn't that mean it's not our's anymore?"
"They will never be our's again child, but the least we can do is give them a special home in our hearts."

Gave me a very Amélie feel... In my town we refurbished some old pianos and painted them all sorts of cool and now whenever I walk around outside (now that it's getting nice out) I almost always hear someone playing a song from the Amélie soundtrack... It makes me happy to know other people loved it too...
Enough about Amélie; this song is amazing.
@agpimpstyle2
Took the words right out of my mouth =') . Beautiful song indeed!
@ledonjiji
yeah, it is very Yann Tiersenesque...
@VladimirShpak

I always just take songs and match them to stories. Either made up in my mind or from books or movies or shows or whatever. Whenever i listen to music i am literally daydreaming. And this was an especially beautiful song.
@Blynchis
I do the exact same thing! It's great fun especially when I need to get to sleep its the alpha sheep counting
