So einsam wie zuvor

Reflection - Belleruche,  Turntable Soul Music

It’s R&B for the moments when life feels stalled but full of feeling.

Yeah...
Feelin’ like the city got hands on my wheels
Feelin’ like time just chillin’ — for real

Red lights stretch for miles, no motion
Heart beatin' quiet, drownin' in the commotion
Dashboard glow like a midnight ocean
Got dreams in drive, but I’m stuck in slow motion

Left turn? Nah, too late
Right now, feelin' that weight
Waze don't even know my fate
This ain't just traffic — it's a headspace

Gridlock, baby, I been paused too long
Feelin’ like my purpose playin' the same old song
Can't move, can't fight,
Tryna gas up hope in the middle of the night
Gridlock, yeah
It's deeper than the lanes — it's a life type trap
Feelin' like love hit a detour map
Yeah, stuck in the loop, no cap

Radio loud but I ain't hearin’ a thing
DJ joke fallin’ flat, pain still sing
Every horn a heartbeat I can’t explain
Tryna stay in lane, but it feel insane

Bay view nice but the toll’s too steep
Feelin' like the dream been buried too deep
All this concrete got me missin' sleep
I been stuck too long in a vibe I ain't tryna keep

Gridlock, baby, this ain’t just the ride
It’s all the silence I been holdin’ inside
I can’t move, can’t decide
Caught between truth and my foolish pride
Gridlock — yeah
Feelin’ like fate hit a four-way stop
Still waitin’ on green while the world don’t drop
Yeah… just me and my thoughts at the top

Gridlock

The moment you know you're in love when you feel you partner's heartbeat perfectly tuned to your own, when physicality, spirituality and souls meet in perfect unison.

Borrowed Smile

The "legendary Congolese band has joined forces with acclaimed Angolan/Portuguese artist Batida aka Pedro Coquenão."

Their sound is a spectacular electro-traditional mix.  With only rudimentary amplification and handmade instruments they have managed to  create otherworldly music for over 40 years.

They have collaborated with the likes of Björk and Herbie Hancock. 

Full length comes on on April 29th.

ENDLESS SUMMER VIBES # 18

Africa is a vast continent but it has one universal rhythm pattern. The African exodus is said to have started with a family of 30, they are our universal ancestors. In a sense, we are all "African". The family of about 30 shared one language, one music. They had one mythology. This is where we all began. What was this language? 

A big chunk of the music I play is derived from and inspired by this idea, along with the musical testimony of the African region. Drums, xylophones and off-beat percussions are the backbone of the plethora of sounds that make me, as an artist. 

Having shared the table, the dance floor, and the drums with local Nigerians was beyond everything I could have expected and dreamed of. I was called African, I was one of them.  My hips, my swing, my rhythm, my mosaic of sounds were there to speak on my behalf. 

Playing in Lagos was one of the toughest sets I've played. I learned how to use a computer in a week, plus I was the first woman to perform throughout the tour. Also, the speed of the sounds being played locally, didn't align with my speed, this led me to use tracks of 160bpm at 100, mixed with Colombian reggae of 80bpm and gospel at 108. It's a true mashup of eclectic sounds, a set to dance to, for sure. Here's half of the 3,4hour set played in Lagos, Nigeria. <3 Bless y'all.
