Osiris’ every line of melody & every physical movement reflects that of the ocean’s waves. A great piece of music & perfect to accompany these summer, often sea-spent days.
Soundscapes built around meandering vocal melodies, with little to no clear language use, but rather, an underlying intention to connect with audiences on a deeper, emotional & spiritual level.
Shanti Shanti have a truly beautiful sound & their songwriting is equally beautiful & works hard to hold your attention & affection at every step.
Franklin Livingston is not a Spanish speaker but has put his creative efforts into this single as a mark of solidarity with Spanish communities living in America. He said of the process that love should inspire us to learn each other’s languages & to live in harmony & peace.
Muntu Valdo brings a totally vast range of influences to his music, or to put it differently, he offers something distinctly original that rings true to his own experiences & artistry.
This collaboration between Canary Islands’ producer Sabina Dream & Connecticut’s Siete Plagas just oozes those easy going summer vibes – the sort we’ve been craving as we turn the corner away from the colder months.
Hassan Bin Rashid has a pure & natural connection to music & it’s a joy to witness him in his element like this, even more so with such an experienced, expressive band.
I have learned to take a “best of both worlds” approach to my music being that I’m both a Nigerian & an American. The traditional African rhythms are present with the modern afro-pop sounds, mixed with soul & other contemporary genres.
A striking piece artistic as ever & cleverly entertaining in a new, incomparable way. This is nothing like Oxaï Roura’s previous releases, yet at the same time, it’s soaked in the very same creative freedom & other worldly levels of inspiration.
Something that feels very gentle & intimate at first, later drawing you in with its sense of togetherness, then finally evolving into something quite chaotic & overwhelming, even slightly unsettling.
The collaborative process has led to a number of cultures meeting & working in unison within the ambiance, and this creates something particularly special.
