Midan’s new album pays homage to the beautiful music of Brazil. The young producer, DJ and digger from Cologne channels his deep love for Bossa Nova, Samba and MPB (Música Popular Brasileira) into a 17-track strong album entitled ‘Letter To Brazil’. Accompanied by his good friends FloFilz, Saib, Mr. Käfer and LESKY. Artwork by São Paolo-based illustrator André Cast.

Born and raised in Paris, the half German half Algerian producer is one the most exciting new jacks on the German beatmaker scene. At the age of 23, Midan has already released a bunch of albums for renowned labels like Casual Low Grind, Mutombo Recods and Beat Jazz International.

‘Letter To Brazil’ will be available on LP and digital.

'Line Down', the second single from 'Tide and Time', the new Raw Tapes album by Amir Bresler, starts effortless yet profound; the melody seems to flow unwritten. ‘I liked the notion of less is more’, Amir says, ‘suddenly you can hear more frequencies within the drums'. One bright phrase shines above, the background is set, the tempo is absolute while the piano sways as the stream lingers and fades.

Coco Elane (they/she) & Lucid Liebe (she/her) share their new joint single 
‘Wander With Me’, blending queer, spaced-out R&B with elements of jazz and a touch of kitsch. Lucy aka Lucid Liebe, a Berlin-based multi-instrumentalist, producer and member of jazz trio Bokoya, crafted evocative, dynamic arrangements around Coco’s haunting vocals and viola recordings. Together, they create genre-fluid, soul-ful soundscapes that feel raw, intimate, and transformative. 

“For me, this song is about the desire for emotional connection and uncertainty, that comes with it,” Coco shares. “It's also a question, whether it is all just a dream. It re-flects a mix of hope, vulnerability and uncertainty in love.” 

Their EP ‘Wander With Me’ drops Thursday March 27th.
Bern-based artist Coco Elane has put out a joint EP with Leipzig producer upper class and released various singles for urbanundergrounds and Hutzpah Records. Her debut album is set to come out in late 2025.
Lucy Liebe has released three albums with Bokoya for MPM and a solo project titled Looong Epeee. As part of douniah’s live band, she has performed extensively across Germany and the UK.

Coco Elane & Lucid Liebe - Wander With Me

Presenting the second single taken from Melbourne/Naarm multi-instrumentalist Don Glori’s forthcoming third album ‘Paper Can’t Wrap Fire’. ‘Power’ is a spiritual, choir-led, Brazilian-infused beauty. 

It was a song that Don wrote after being fed up with dealing with bad promoters and agents. It’s a simple mantra - protect your power and energy and do what feels free and good. A playful composition, musically it's divided into two parts. The first was inspired by Kendrick Lamar's 'To Pimp a Butterfly' and the West Coast sonic world, delicately balancing the spiritual choir, ghostly horns, and jazz break intro. The song then morphs as it progresses, with the gravity that the choir once provided, ripped away by the next section.

From sombre to cheeky, the group chant turns to a satirical hook from the opposite view of the cynical promoter.
 
‘Take your fee, take your seat, come on man keep it up,
Take your fee, take your seat, come on man just shut up’

The song then breaks into a segment that nods to the Brazilian legends Azymuth and their 1977 track 'Tamborim, Cuíca, Ganzá, Berimbau’. Alcides Neto, Robyn Cummins and Al Kennedy provide the shimmering pandeiro, conga and drum percussion rhythms, as Joel Trigg lets rip with a swelling Rhodes solo that crescendos to the finale.


Don Glori - Power

Presenting the third single ‘Ron Song’ taken from Melbourne/Naarm multi-instrumentalist Don Glori’s forthcoming third album, Paper Can’t Wrap Fire. An ode to Brazil’s musical heritage, it’s Don’s nod to icons and influences including João Donato and Seu George. Samba-flecked, yet with a distinctive Don Glori groove, it’s doused in buttery Rhodes, hazy vocal harmonies and acoustic guitar riffs. Combine that with a serving of long majestic horn lines and the instantly recognisable cuíca and it’s a one-way ticket to Rio’s sunshine-soaked shores. 
 
Speaking about the track, Don mentions, “The thing I love about ‘Ron Song’ is all the ear candy. The Rhodes was routed through the preamp of an original suitcase Rhodes to give it the proper stereo trem it needed. The guitar just breaking through the ribbon mic contrasts against the very digital chorus on the bass. The bass is pushed out to the sides, using every dial tone sample at once. Texturally it feels like an ear massage. 
 
Alcides Neto laid down cuíca throughout the track and fans of Azymuth/Brazilian music in general will appreciate the partido alto underneath the trumpet solo. It’s as if the cuíca and Rhodes are having a conversation in the outro.”
