2.E - 2.E

Singer-Songwriter Wanja Wohoro and East African Alternative Producer Jinku team up once again on a dystopian melody-driven ambient track entitled Enjoy the Night.

Wanja’s warm, haunting voice and repetitive guitar pattern draws the arc of the song. She addresses her inner self, grappling with escapism and the ways in which we use substances, crowds, clubs and even music to hide - from each other and from ourselves. Jinku’s vibrant production embellishes this arc with accented polyrhythms and wide spacial pads. Distorted strings create both dissonance and cohesion throughout the track, guiding the music up into its emotional peak. Enjoy the Night creates a sonic landscape that brings into the light the feeling of escapism.

MaReMixes is a collaborative effort between Mars Maasai and RVMP. This isn't their first remix collaboration, but it's their most intentional remix project to date. Volume 1 is a collection of Kenyan songs the two producers reinterpreted as an homage to Steph Kapela, Femi One, Maandy and Breeder LW, Kenyan rappers they are inspired by. We hope you enjoy this brief compilation and we look forward to sharing the 2nd volume from this series.

Somewhere in between bittersweet and a reverie, EA Wave's new song continues to establish the group's ambition to fuse modern music stylings with those of 70s post-rock Kenya.

With the aid of RnB and pop duo, Mankind, comes a coming-of-age tale, that every adult must go through - leave home and forge one's own path. The song simulates the conversation between a child and their mother, a mother's reluctance towards separation and their child's resolve to leave.

'Dala' derives its name from the Dholuo word for 'home'. A love letter to those who shaped us  and the places we are from.

Lyrics by Eugene Lowell and Brian Owuor

Mixed by Jacob 'Jinku' Solomon with assistance from Hiribae Wanyoike and Samuel 'Sichangi' Namasaka.

Imagine if J Dilla and Madlib had a baby who found a musical soulmate with TDE level raps but they came from Nairobi, Kenya??? Using a unique combination of Sheng’ (a local Kenyan creole) and English, BoiBlacc weaves together tales of struggle and hope that command the attention of any audience. Together with KiliHippie's compelling and hard-hitting production they create a fresh and inimitable sound that they strongly believe the world not only wants but NEEDS.

Following in the footsteps of the great producer-rapper duos like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg & Timberland and Missy Elliott they are out to leave an indelible mark on the world for decades to come. On July 10th they give to the world their debut eight track project, ‘The Blacc Circle’.
