This Afro-pop gem showcases the incredible vocals of Ivorian singer Nayanka Bell, known as the "Barbra Streisand of Africa." Her voice is accompanied by a blend of more traditional Ivorian rhythms and smooth pieces of electronic pop on top of it.

Little side note; This album won the Africa Music Award in 1994, which is the same year she won the prize for most beautiful female voice of Africa. 
And I totally get why she won both prizes!

The track’s arrangement is a perfect balance of organic and modern elements. Where I normally would go for the horns (that are incredibly warm and energetic in this track), for it the guitar part that gets me in this tune.

For this version, I did some rework on the structure to enhance the flow of the track a bit. I did use the CD version of the album for this edit. But most work went into redoing the drums ever so slightly to give the track somewhat more body for the big systems.

Monet - Do You Remember (TD Dub Edit)

Straight from London’s vibrant scene, sunni embodies the value of deep research and pure love for music.

Across tropical rhythms deep selections and groovy paths, this mix unfolds as a full two-hour journey. 🗺️

“I always have so much fun recording mixes for my friends in Brazil, and my Daily Cue mix was no different. I channelled the freeing feeling I had when I played in Brazil back in Carnaval 2024, imagining I was playing to the same kind of crowd. The mix starts off with deep, meditative selections and slowly builds in energy, coming to a climactic close in the final ten minutes.”

Sit tight, grab a drink and hit play 💫
