When we composed this track, we wanted to communicate an eerie feeling with vibrant synths and a distant melancholic trumpet.

It made us travel far and we hope you will love the journey as well :)

I present a new track Blue Ocean feat. Whalesong of Adam Pietruszko (Rise and Fall).
The track was recorded in the ambienthouse/downtempo genre and plunges into the depths of the world ocean. In the middle of the track, you can hear the Song of the Whale.

Blue Ocean

NOIDEA imprint is at it again with a new earworm, 'XXX' by Acid James. This one will keep you on your toes between the phrases. The hot and cold contrast between uplifting euphoric disco and industrious techno beats, raw bass, and a pulsating acid-line harmonically cut through the track. This blend has been crafted for the special moments on the dancefloor when you need a fresh tune to keep your crowd guessing, moving and grooving.

Breaking Through Part II

4 The Mzinga - Kilifi, Kenya
In most of East Africa, the word Shamba Boy is used to refer to the male work-hand or gardener or caretaker employed to maintain the homestead. He does all the hard labor of the home. Malimbo expresses his frustrations at the discriminations that Shamba “boys” have to endure in this hypnotic Giriama Style Downtempo Organic track from the Music From East Africa project, and remixed by Sidney Simila.

Lyrics: Shamba Boy
“When Malimbo was employed by Dula to work as his farm-hand (shamba boy), Dula made it a living hell for him. He wanted him to work on every single thing on his homestead, including work that was not meant for him. To be born poor, you must be ready to go through a lot of trouble. It is beter to be without food and be hungry than to work for Dula.” This song critcizes the nature with which some employers treat their workers. It encourages people to stand their ground and void being used. 

Composer & Lyrics: Salim Karisa

Uluwatu mystique

A lot of concrete buildings have been abandoned and nature wants its space back by trying to wrap and break them. This is the concept behind the album: "URBANATURE".

It's a downtempo/instrumental journey (with some vocal tracks feat. RYAL and Ilaria Riccio) that leads to the sun, through rain and heavy feelings.
The tracks are heavily influenced by trip-hop and alternative sounds of '90s (Massive Attack, Portishead, Garbage, etc.).

All the photos for the sleeve cover art and labels and music video for "Darkside (a Way to Come Back)" are entirely my own productions.

Thanks to RYAL (Jacqueline Ryal) for lyrics and vocal on "What it's Worth"
Thanks to Ilaria Riccio for lyrics and vocals on "Darkside (a Way to Come Back)"
Thanks to The Gardener (Thomas Hollis) for his guitar on "Devil's Garden"
