The summer of 2011 welcomed the self-titled debut album from Hollie Cook. Hollie’s self-coined ‘Tropical pop’ sound stems from her passion for reggae singers Janet Kay and Phyllis Dillon combined with classic 60s girl groups. The album is produced by friend and collaborator Mike Pelanconi, better known as Prince Fatty.
The debut single ‘That Very Night’ is currently making waves across radio, with Steve Lamacq (BBC Radio 2/6 Music), John Kennedy (XFM) and David Rodigan (Kiss) among her many supporters.  The album includes a cover of Shangri-Las’ ‘(Remember) Walkin’ In The Sand)’; transformed from a dark emotive song to one filled with a flavour of hope. The talents of Omar, Dennis Bovell, George Decker (The Pioneers), Style Scott and Horseman also feature across the album.

Hollie was born and bred in West London in a household dominated by music - with Sex Pistol Paul Cook as her dad, music was always around, and she gravitated to the sounds of Marc Bolan, David Bowie and The Cure.  Entering professional acting, singing and modelling at a young age, Hollie soon rejected her performance arts schooling for a musical path truer to her influences. Family friend and Slits singer Ari Up persuaded Hollie to sing backing vocals for a new EP ‘Revenge of the Killer Slits’, which she followed by ditching school to join the band on a six week US tour. Hollie was now an official Slit - Ari referred to Hollie as the 'second singer' - so when it came to record a new Slits album in LA, Hollie's vocals, keyboards and even her song ‘Cry’ all featured.

EVERLASTING SUNSET

Bandcamp

GRCA. - EVERLASTING SUNSET

Underwater Soul opens a vibrational space that flows like a liquid body.
Each track resonates as an emotional current.
Each frequency whispers from depth.
Each silence breathes with the soul submerged.

This album brings the body into water, rhythm into breath, and the soul into a surface-less state.
The movement is inward, aquatic, and gentle.
It rises from breath.
Voices float.
Grooves hold, not push.

Inspired by the sensitivity of “Underwater Love” (Smoke City) and guided by the Resonant Council 12+1, this work unfolds as an intimate ritual for those who listen with their skin.

Downtempo rhythms, wet sub-basses, silk-textured pads, organic glitches, and whispered memories of touch.
Underwater Soul offers a journey into slowness and presence — a sonic immersion for remembering the silent vibration of soul.

Best heard in dim light, with headphones, and intentional stillness.
Each pulse touches your internal water.
Each frequency reminds you: we are also river.

------

Underwater Soul abre un espacio vibracional que fluye como cuerpo líquido.
Cada track vibra como una corriente emocional.
Cada frecuencia susurra desde la profundidad.
Cada silencio respira con el alma sumergida.

Este álbum evoca el cuerpo como agua, el ritmo como aliento ondulante, y el alma como un territorio sin superficie fija.
Aquí la danza es interna, acuática, suave.
El movimiento nace desde la respiración.
Las voces flotan, sin urgencia.
El groove envuelve, sin empujar.

Inspirado por la sensibilidad de “Underwater Love” (Smoke City) y guiado por el Consejo Resonante 12+1, esta obra se despliega como un ritual íntimo para quienes escuchan con el cuerpo.

Ritmos downtempo, subgraves húmedos, pads como seda, glitch orgánico, y susurros que recuerdan al tacto.
Underwater Soul propone un viaje hacia la lentitud y la presencia, una inmersión sonora para reconectar con la vibración silenciosa del alma.

Se recomienda escucharlo en penumbra, con auriculares, en quietud consciente.
Cada pulso toca el agua interna.
Cada frecuencia recuerda que también somos río.

Ana Sol & La Candela/ Un Sol para ti

An exploration of traditional Chadian music with an electronic twist... Chad is in many ways a blind spot on the map of today's global musical conversation. Overlooked, misunderstood and misrepresented, outside observers rarely concede the country an autonomous voice over its past, present and future. N’Djamena, the dusty capital of Chad with its well-kept stories of boundary-breaking musical collaborations and thirst for experimentation is a city that reflects the country's diversity: the arid North, bordering the Sahara, where nomadic tribes revere the endless desert with their handcrafted instruments. The lush tropical South, where the frenetic drumming of local initiation ceremonies blends with sounds of neighboring Congo and Cameroon. Right in the middle: N'Djamena, a forgotten melting pot of cultures and peoples bursting with unrecorded stories of life at the margins of the world's attention. Tackling this view is precisely one of the aims of Pulo NDJ. In May 2018, Nickodemus accepted an invitation from Hape Collective to travel to N'Djamena to teach a group of young adults DJ'ing and electronic music production, which resulted in the encounter between a group of talented artists from Cameroon, Chad, Congo and Togo. After a weeklong series of listening to original songs & demos, the recordings continued in a pop-up studio created by DJ Buosis & Nickodemus which culimated in Desert To Douala, an album featuring 11 songs, all originally written and recorded in N’Djamena. The project found its inspiration in the city's un-narrated diversity and seeks to explore the possibilities offered by technology to demonstrate how the country’s rich heritage connects with existing musical conversations. It strives to create bridges in a world of walls. It has been a yearlong creative process that built friendships and fostered understanding among people united by a passion for music and creation.
